What if one side is not good in Urdu and the other side is not good in English , in this case what will be the language of the oath? Sign language?
In my view the language of correspondence (Written or spoken) in all government departments inside Pakistan should be only Urdu. Just by implementing this single thing, imagine how many jobs will be created for translators in Pakistan as all foreigners in Pakistan have to get docs translated into Urdu from an authorized translator. For any transaction like marriage certificates or power of attorneys etc…..
Also our passports and NICOP should have the holders details in both Urdu and English and not just English.
The media has a big part to play in bring back Urdu by appointing linguistics to check the news / reports before a broadcast. People say there are some modern words which have no Urdu equivalent, well There was a time when Urdu was formed from scratch using Arabic and Persian and Turkish words, why not use the same strategy again? A language can keep up with the modern era provided an institution is made to enhance the develop the language with time and also steps should be taken to make sure such institutions are doing their job properly.
Hi,
When a reporter asked the japanese ambassador to pakistan---what do you think----will pakistan be successful---he replied never---the reporter asked why---the ambassador replied---pakistan's is travelling in just the opposite direction of success---it will never happen.
and you sir----are proof of that-----. You already have an asset in your resource---ie english----instead of maximizing it----you want to minimize it----. Who needs india as an enemy----when pakistanis will do it to themselves.
For the enemies of pakistan---your biggest achievement---building of the atom bomb---was carried out by those who were fluent in english---german---dutch---french----. When working in pakistan----these scientists even had work hours emulating those in the west.
Your F16 pilots on their first ever training in the u s in the early 80's---they were praised with the highest accoldes---beacuse of their proficiency in english as compared to pilots from other nations---pak pilots were way ahead of the learning curve.
W'alalh----Allah has given the nation a gift and the nation has thrown it in the trash----.
I spoke to a friend of mines in . He said if the education was taught in Urdu it would be more beneficial.
And while you are at it----don't step on those " mines "---they have a tendency to blow up----hehn.
