VCheng;

We all can differ in our opinions and we should all agree to respect that. There are good and bad in all groups of people. Pakistanis are not a bad lot but a misled lot. Fundamentally, they are one of the friendliest and caring people but highly, emotionally charged. This is expected of a young nation.

It is the duty of people like us to engage with them and try to get them to see the light of the day instead of ridiculing their lack of understanding.

Education and continued engagement is the trick my firend.;-)

Agreed; I can but try.

 

[Aamir Hussain]

Yes, try do not give up but with a deft touch my friend.

 

[VCheng]

Yes, try do not give up but with a deft touch my friend.

Well, I am still here after everything that has happened, amn't I?

 

[Aamir Hussain]

Yes you are. That is the Gods honest truth.

 

[VCheng]

Yes you are. That is the Gods honest truth.

Well, Pakistanis never quit easily, right?

(even if they are hyphenated umreekis! )

^^^ Not only all of that, but witness the level of delusion that some insist upon forcing on others on PDF as well; it indicates that not only are the leaders at fault, but the followers too, for not seeing the daylight even when it shines in their faces bright and clear.

i actually agree with this 10,000% (if such a number existed)

but then again, when you have a population of 180 millions of different educational and economic backgrounds its only inevitable that there will be a rift in ideas and a vast array of ''faults'' ........you have rational and irrational all over

and you know how our people are....many tend to get emotional and it sometimes clouds the thinking


i only hold the leaders more in contempt because they have the ABILITY to do a better job reversing whatever ills there are in our society but there is no will on their part to do so....bad habits are easier to pick up than good ones; and some of the people have picked up the bad habits they learned from the people we call our leaders. Lying, cheating, ill-gotten gains, etc.

Cheng,

when you polish and scrub old leather or vinyl seats --- the dirt and shyte becomes visible when in fact it wasnt visible and looked cleaner when it was dirty --before the scrubbing.

thats because the dirt and shyte was deeply ingrained in the leather.....it's ironic that when you scrub it and let it dry -- the leather is clean but the outside is ******...there's an easy solution to that

you wipe it with a clean fiber towel with some light soap and water...and then repeat the whole process until the leather is shining and bright -with luster.


in Pakistan's case, I have a feeling that if the PEOPLE do the leading --- then the LEADERS would follow. However people arent born with this innate ability to lead. Most of it is learned, a lot of it is skill that is built up over time and experience. There is no reason why Pakistan can't be the beacon of light not just for Muslim world but for the WHOLE world --like what it was earlier on in 1950s/60s. All it takes is honest leadership.

we dont need PH.Ds and nobel prize winners like Obama laugh.....we just need honest leaders who genuinely give a damn; and can ensure that basic services are available to the people. Enough with the slogans and feudal dynasties. The people are tired of it.

Amendment to Army Act

Govt fails to submit reply in Supreme Court

Staff Report

ISLAMABAD: The federal government on Wednesday failed to submit its reply in the Supreme Court (SC) regarding amendment to the Army Act, 1952.

A three-member SC bench, headed by Chief Justice Iftikhar Muhmmad Chaudhry, took up a 12-year-old pending petition, filed by Col (r) Ikram Chaudhry in which the petitioner has termed some clauses of the Army Act against the constitution of Pakistan. During the hearing, Deputy Attorney General of Pakistan Mujtaba Haider Sherazi told the bench that former AG Maulvi Anwarul Haq, who was examining the matter, had been transferred. He requested the court to grant him some time to submit a reply. Upon this, the court observed that it was duty of the AG office to mange the matter and submit a reply on time. The hearing of the case was adjourned until April 25.

On April 10, Maulvi Anwarul Haq had also requested the court to give him some time for submission of his reply. The court had approved the request and asked him to submit his reply until April 18 but the court did not get any reply.

Rawalpindi - April 19, 2012:

In an impressive ceremony, a batch of 900 security soldiers of the Strategic Plans Division graduated from the Baloch & Frontier Force Regimental Centres at Abbotabad today. Director General Security, Strategic Plans Division, Major General Muhammad Tahir was the Chief Guest.
Addressing the successful trainees, the Chief Guest appreciated the high standards of training achieved and highlighted the responsibilities and challenges ahead. He urged the soldiers to discharge their duties with utmost commitment and dedication so as to come up to the nation’s expectations. He appreciated the instructional staff that had trained this latest batch in line with international standards.
It may be recalled that the SPD has undertaken a comprehensive plan to significantly augment the capacity of its Security Force to ensure fool proof security of strategic assets. In the recent past four batches of the Security Forces have been trained at Baloch, Frontier Force Regimental Centre, and a batch of Special Response Force at the recently established SPD Training Academy. With the induction of these newly trained soldiers, the strength of the SPD Security Force touches a figure of 20,000.
