What is the purpose of SAARC? Should it be disbanded?

. .
I am struggling to understand the purpose of SARRC? I think it should be disbanded. Any thoughts?





AGREED. It was formed as a final reminder form a colonial slave-mindset of the British Raj. SAARC serves and has NO purpose WHATSOEVER as far as Pakistan is concerned. SAARC is just a reminder that all the nations within it were once ruled completely or partially by the British Empire. Nothing more.

Pakistan is free to leave the SAARC on its own what I don't understand is why Pakistan has to stay in SAARC if it sees it as a useless organization.




AGREED!

It was designed to create AkhandBharat by stealth....

Now it is a DeadDonkey lying on the way side... legs up and belly swollen.
Yes. BJP is trying to bypass the SAARC secretariat....probably as a stealth way of building an Akhand Bharat. If it continues then Pakistan should leave. Bangladesh and Afghanistan are free to join the Akhand Bharat.....but they should know that the future of Muslims in this BJP/RSS construct is not a happy one.

Maybe its time for an Islamic SAARC......ISAARC.

The only supranational organisation that is effective is the European Union.
Out of all the other supranational organisations, I would say that the Association of South East Asian Nations (ASEAN) and the African Union (AU) are currently the only organisations that make an effort to achieve further integration.
The other organisations, such as SAARC, are nothing more than talking shops.

Besides, I do not think that India and Pakistan will be able to cooperate, since every form of cooperation between them is politicised by their politicians and media.
Therefore, regarding regional cooperation, India should work with Nepal, Bhutan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, The Maldives and Myanmar (which I think they are already doing)
And Pakistan should work with Afghanistan, Iran and China (which I also think they are already doing).

That leaves SAARC with no real function or mandate.
So, the only future for SAARC is no future.
The organisation should be disbanded and the only ones that will cry about this are the worthless bureaucrats that were working there, but did not achieve anything in all those years, yet are now sad that they will not be getting paid anymore.

Very rare for an indian to talk sense.

there is this thing called ECO of which Iran Pakistan and Turkey are already members. just add China to it if you want. get Pakistan out of SAARC, it is just an ongoing drag due to Indo Pak tensions making regional work more complex than it has to be. In fact if that will make it easier for Pakistanis to accept, just declare that area to be Arabia if they'd like

Then I have to disappoint you both, because I am not an Indian.
I was born in Surinam and live in the Netherlands.
My ancestors though, came from what is now India and Nepal, and were brought to work as labourers on the land in Surinam.

However, I still stand by what I said about SAARC but as a non-South Asian observer.

Stupid organization, we need to focus with countries which are our caliber like Japan / South Korea, Eruope


  • Nothing in it for Pakistan unfortunately

  • Afghanistan is war torn , poor
  • Nepal is just a small nation struggling with many challenges due to India
  • Bangladesh is of course far away

That's it ......


Pakistani Delegation are better off engaging Big countries of World for proper Massive Trade boost
