President Asif Ali Zardari predicted on Sunday that Bilawal Bhutto would win over the hearts of people in Punjab just as he had done in Sindh on his December 27 political debut.
After his first address, we saw that he ruled the hearts of people in Sindh. He will now do the same in Punjab, the president told a delegation of Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) leaders in south Punjab.
I have told Bilawal to embrace the political vision of his grandfather Zulfikar Ali Bhutto. He will now carry forth the legacy of the Bhuttos. I was merely a custodian of the responsibility handed over to me by Benazir Bhutto, said President Zardari.
He was talking to PPP MPA Amir Dogar, the partys General Secretary South Punjab chapter Khawaja Rizwan Aalam and other senior PPP leaders of south Punjab.
Though Bilawal Bhuttos entry marks the start of a new culture in politics, he said, the traditional vision of PPP will be maintained. The partys age-old dedication to the rights of workers, labourers, farmers and peasants will remain unchanged.
Today our politicians are seeking to revive the culture of revenge which marked the politics of the 1990s. The PPP will battle against the politics of revenge and will undo this trend.
While in Punjab, President Zardari met United Arab Emirates President Sheikh Khalifa bin Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan who was on a visit there.
The president expressed satisfaction over bilateral ties with the UAE and invited UAE investors to benefit from liberal trade packages which the present government was offering to foreign entrepreneurs.
While noting that up to 1.2 million Pakistanis were working in the UAE, the president expressed confidence that the workforce was positively contributing towards the socioeconomic development of either country, and was also serving to strengthen diplomatic ties.
