Proposal to let dual nationals contest elections

[Trango Towers]

Voting is one thing, but access to public office is a big NO! And I'm an OP saying this.

Could we expats be as damaging as the local traitors..... not a chance

 

[Cent4]

I agree with this.

Members of Parliament ,Bureaucrats, Military personals.

The following pool is to big and limits us in obtaining experienced human resource. As long as we have the correct checks it should not bother us.

Any one associated with the dealings of a national government and state.

But why? Are we out of local stock?
Make no sense

Have we found a decent local cricket coach yet ?

 

[B.K.N]

Because 70 percent of arms in Pakistan are illegal or not licensed. He can belong to Pharoahs own house, just get a licensed one

Aap na shayad what's in your gun locker thread nahi dekha
And politicians keep licensed weopons

 

[Zibago]

Bad idea we dont want more Hussain Haqqanks

 

[Cent4]

That is a good way of saying '' well it was bound to happen ''

What is bound to happen in your opinion.

Politicians do not care for constitution as evidenced by this thread and you are talking about keeping a licensed arm?

What is bound to happen in your opinion.

Fascism under populist demagogue after years of oppression by GoP

Elections and sensitive public office posts should be a no go.

As a dual national, I'm highly unlikely to get a sensitive position in UK's MOD but NHS etc is mostly open for me.

Every Civil Servant goes through security checks, even administration jobs. And dual nationals are weeded out through these security checks that are very stringent for sensitive positions.

Dual nationals should be allowed in government jobs but not at sensitive / national security posts.

We shall soon find out. All signs points to fascism.

Please go through PTI media cell team here to get a glimpse.

A lot of them are young people and they still have a lot to learn. The problem with young people is that they dont learn if pushed in a corner.

IK is not a fascist leader and no one else have a similar following to be taken seriously. Time cures everything.

Postulation is that such fascism is being encouraged for political balance.

A political party which has fans who are more interested in infighting than good for the country. Mix of ethnofascists along with religious bigot all flared up for 6 parliament seats to become PM of the country.

We shall reap what we have sown.

Dual National to hold Public Office is like creating more Haqqanis, Hassan & Hussain Nawaz and all those who flee out of country after loot & plunder. A person that sworn on oath to xyz country to be loyal and then, he/she has Pakistan Nationality like another oath of loyalty to the land, will then hold a Public Office in Pakistan and we shall expect him/her to be loyal to us only? It doesn't need to reminded to the current cabinet but it seems like; someone within IK cabinet is going to cause some harm.

I can see that it might be just another attempt to bring in those most talented, capable & honest persons who left country being aggrieved due to previous corrupt leadership but there is still a problem at hand that one can't evaluate a person's heart & mind to the fullest and make sure of his/her loyalty to Pakistan.

Why sudden compromise over a threat to the National Security? as a person loyal to foreign land can't be fully honest with Pakistan or may turn out to be anything. No more Shaukat Aziz please. We have been opposing the same idea and agreed that such person can't be trusted.

The question arises as why is it suggested by the cabinet members in the first place? and who they want to come back & be the part of leadership here?

You have a point but if the OP is working in the interest of the country then this should be ok. May be stringent criteria?

1) Most of the looted wealth is stashed abroad since most money launderers use dual nationality.
2) PTI is foreign funded party so to give them the return of their wealth, cabinet wants to impose these dual nationals on Pakistan.
3) The continued propaganda by GoP of the brain drain and disrespecting Pakistanis.
4) Complete disregard to NAP by GoP by trying to get foreign brainwashed dual nationals.
5) Syed Zulfiqar Bukhari can now become Minister properly.

The sooner we can get rid of PPP and PMLN the better for us. In that empty space 2 new parties need to emerge. Once we have 3 truely democratic parties things will start to improve for Pakistan.

Very few Pakistanis have the courgae to wander in the unkown. Whats the worst that can happen if the two families were to disappear. Not many of us have the courage to take a lead and imagine that we can do something on our own.

Rise of one family created the space for the second one. Corruption by both of them lead to the rise of IK. Now thankfully IK does not have a "heir".

What is so special about these two families that we can not create new leaders ?
