Hey after all they are the ones left that try to make Pakistan a better image in the globe. Those living in Pakistan who think we are enjoying and partying in West are making a big mistake making these kinds of assumptions. They need to go and look around themselves first. Give me an example of country that thinks it normal to have maids, drivers, and chefs in households? I'm going to make this clear. There is so much disparity between the rich and the poor. Voting is one thing and social issues is another, which in my view should be the first thing that needs to be solved.
No, they left Pakistan so they could make a better life for themselves first. Nobody leaves Pakistan to promote its better image... please. Wake up.
And that's what I am saying... come back and work on the social issues. Bring the "enlightened" thought back. Create opportunities here.
Fact: Pakistan would be in a worse state if remittances didn't occur, there are thousands of benefits. If we weren't patriotic why would we send money back home, invest etc.
99.9% of all overseas Pakistanis (dual nationals and migrants) wish to return to their homeland and not stay abroad. The vast majority are abroad due to the situation in Pakistan rampant unemployment, inflation, no rule of law etc
Do you really think we would want to stay abroad if such issues were curtailed, in the next 20-30 years you will see a large amount expats returning to Pakistan as the situation improves. I bet my life on it that expats would be more willing to die for Pakistan than you so called TRUE NATIVE PAKISTANIS who think we are 2nd class citizens. Its exactly your mindset and backward thinking that isn't allowing Pakistan to develop as a nation, if you don't want us to vote then those with your mindset should quit moaning of why Pakistan is going down the drain.
Who called you a second-class citizen?
Well, why not come back and change the situation so that no one else has to leave? Why should others change it for you?
If you are not willing to live in Pakistan, and show that Pakistanis are not the fundos who were out on the streets last Friday... then you have no right to moan about Pakistan going down the drain either!
Those people live here... let them burn and do whatever they want to. Why are you concerned or bothered?
Making voters travel back to the country is merely a way to disenfranchise voters.
Or make the annual holiday back home when it's time for the elections, makes perfect sense. It's another thing for those who are no longer registered as official citizens of Pakistan...
