Saudi Arabia is reportedly revising its ambitious plans to change its economy

I've forgot to mention that the only successful Pan-Movement of the last century is still alive. It's called Pakistan. In fact, the idea of Pakistan has proved itself so successful that we're talking about a 200m.+ country with nuclear war capacity today. I swear to God, many Pakistanis are yet not aware of the idea, the concept, the mindset, the philosophy behind Pakistan. The fact that Pakistan even exists is stunning because it is the result of the will power of several nations who voluntarily came together and what's more important: they still stick together. That's, by the way, the main difference in comparison to India in my opinion. Pakistan has a precious narrative, a story to tell, it's a community of destiny and fate. Simply amazing. Usually countries with a similar social composition like Pakistan are prone to become a failed state, to implode - but not in this case. Pakistan is really an intellectual challenge for outsiders like me and simply very interesting. :)

Many of us are aware of it.

but not only us, many still outside the present "borders" of Pakistan are also aware of it.

I did not mean to belittle Pakistanis. It is obvious to me that the overwhelming majority of educated Pakistanis from all parts of Pakistan are aware of their own history better than any foreigner. They know exactly the social and historic processes that are uniting the nations of Pakistan today. But sometimes I read news and postings on this forum which are upsetting me. The whole debate about the outcome of the latest census was very disturbing for outsiders like me. I had this feeling that some people are softly trying to question the basic rules and some important taboos of the Pakistani society. I didn't like it. Maybe it is just me and my impression of the census discussion is completely wrong. Personally, I would like to see a Pakistan with Pakistani recognized as an ethnicity. Am I too radical?
 
I mean, most people did say that it was far too ambitious, so I'm glad they're setting their expectations a bit more realistic this time.
