hello all.
I have thought about this issue for a while & came up with a list of top ten Enemies that we have and we need to wage a war on them if we are to stand up as a great Nation.
Top 10 Enemies of Pakistan:
1: Feudalism
2: Illiteracy
3: Sectarianism
4: Cast system
5: Tribalism
6: Religious & social intolerance , bigotry & Prejudice
7: Social imbalance
8: Materialistic classification
9: Non urbanization
10: Ignorance of our human & cultural Potential
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Many of you would be thinking why i have not added , poverty , bad governance , corruption , bad economy but in my opinion all of these problems arise out of that top ten list as a consequence .
If We deal with those 10 issues and find solutions ,we will alleviate all major issues that we face. We would become a nation which would produce great leaders and politicians , technocrats , professionals and every other aspect we need to progress and stand up as a great nation.
share your thoughts please.

Dear Black Blood, it is good that you are disccusing this issue, I am recent member on this forum and would like your opinion on my posts.
I think solution of our problems lies in education for unity based on social justice and fair play. Merit based society is absolutely necessary for better future. The question is how to get these things?
Education can be achieved by individual efforts not by abolishing whatever little we have but by improving upon it by removing things that cause problems.
We all have families and friends so if we start improving education of each other by way of selfhelp, we can still achieve a lot despite others opposing us who feel education of masses is a threat to their position or status in society.
These poeple are everywhere in the world. How many people really lend their shoulders to others to stand on them and go yet higher? This whole world is mentally stuck when it comes to thinking at a highier level. Almost all people show their leadership position by trying to keep others below them by all means they can use against them. If humanity wants to develop and progress then they need to change this mentality. We need to replace this idea by idea of top man lending his shoulder to help the one's below him rise above and take the banner for taking humanity yet highier.
A lot of human resource goes to waste over petty thinking. We need to remove shackles of all sorts from the human society and replace them with supporting pillars so that we all could rise in level on basis of merit. The attitudes need to be changed from that of hindrance to facilitation. By accepting this principle all will rise because all are interlinked and interdependent. If top man is really standing on merits then he cam only rise as other rise from below him.
Let me explain by an example, let's suppose we are standing on each other. If the man at the very bottom rises up the man on the top will go up as well and so will all others who are above or below each other. So if we want to rise we need to help each other so that we all rise up relative to each other according to our own heights.
Now imagine each person on top of the other, pushes the one below him down, what will happen? All will come down by at least same level or at most this human column will collapse altogether. So it is best to think positive and worst to think negative.
Society is fine the way it is structured, all it needs is education to unite and organise itself better for better political results by creating a culture that is progressive towards prosperity and happiness for all.
We cannot do away with hierarchy it is not possible because we need organisation for aiming for anything in life. This is why humans are families, clans andtribes and we are leaders and followers, employers and employees, teachers and students etc etc. if we could live without each other then all this could not have come about. So its better to understand things and try to see how they can be used positively. What we can have is democracy, that is more and more transparent and accountable with biting teeth.
The idea is not to take things away from people or to set a ceiling for them to control them from having more rather we should reasonably ensure that people who have do all they can for the society as responsbile members of the society that gave them all this. So we should have a decent minimum standard of living that these people must help maintain. Capitalist and market economy is good because it gives individuals incentives to do better for themselves on basis of merit and opportunity and limits wastage and inefficiency but there have to be laws local, national and international to limit its ill effects on human societies by making the rich pay for the maintance of healthy human society. If there are such international but effective laws that hold people accountable with serious consequences then that will minimise chances of some peole using and abusing others at will.
I do not want to repeat what I have explained in my other posts so please find them there. I agree with you that we have problems but I think we need to think out better solutions than bloodshed and violence if we can avoid it.
regards and all the best.
