most of the members may call me pessimistic after this post but honestly speaking do we have anything today to cheer about? all the departments in this country have gone to dogs. wapda, police, railway, pia, health , education, judiciary, politics, foreign policy, law and order, political leaders,think tanks, sports.... all these departments have a sorry state of affairs. military's performance and role are also questionable. corruption is there in every department. the debt on every pakistani is insanely high. " shareef" is the only one who doesn't get a chance to do corruption from milkman to president. pak was established in the name of islam but there is no islam here. people are being killed in the name of Allah. intolerance is getting higher and people are getting more and more frustrated. moral values have taken a hit. brothers are killing sisters, husbands killing wives. fathers killing daughters. jirgas give shameful decisions on daily basis. is there any thing on the right track today in this country? is pakistan just a map with a large crowd of animals ? is there any hope?is there any difference between us and the nation of Prophet Shoaib A.S.? we simply do not qualify to be a nation worthy of fighting "ghazwa e hind".
Some sectors went down but others improved as well.
Pakistani media is now close to world class in terms of independence, quality and quantity
Telecommunication sector has shown exponential growth (almost everyone has a mobile phone now)
Highways are the best in South Asia
Highways police can be compared with western countries
One of the largest private schools networks in the world
Real estate sector improved tremendously (DHA, Bahria)
Banking sector has improved tremendously (no banking crisis when US and European banking systems collapsed)
The only successful military operation against Taliban/ISIS in the world
Pakistani TV dramas and singers continue to impress beyond national boundries
Other than India, every major country of the world supports Pakistan in one way or another
Manufacture of automobiles, motorbikes and electric goods has increased many times
KPK is conducting massive afforestation campaign
Energy sector is one of the most environmentally friendly in the world. Minimal share of coal with extensive usage of hydro power and natural gas. Even cars use natural gas, which causes much less pollution than petrol. Fast paced adoption of other forms of renewable energy such as solar and wind.
Growth of nationalistic politics at the cost of ethnic/religious politics. Most of the seats in the national assembly are with the top three nationalistic and moderate political parties.
Many other bright spots can be listed too
