I would love to talk about it but if it remains in some limits. cause normally what happens on this forum is some one raises question and if the answer does not suite the pti paid workers they start using bad language like there leader. any way lets do this.
You have two main points you made i.e they are corrupt and 2nd they have not delivered in three years.
1- About the corruption part, if they were corrupt why is it that such a strong media and central government against them could not identify a single case of corruption in three years. If they were corrupt how can they stop them self and not do corruption in these three years?? There has been allegations of not being the best performing unit but no corruption case.
The only corruption cases made against pml n were when both pml n and ppp were making cases against each other just for political gains. Both admitted this was wrong and pml n apologized the nation. And another point is if they was a lil bit of proof in there corruption than Musharraf would have done everything to get them to courts. Just last year the courts gave back there extra property, i should quote again "extra property" that was with the court against the loans they took. Who in the world takes extra property against unpaid loans.
2- You said they have the government since three years and they were not able to do anything. Yes i admit they have not performed as much as they could have done it, no doubt about that. They should have made a change and show the people how good governance can bring about the change.
If all of us have been following the pakistani state being weaken in the last era, we would have noticed that state is almost paralyzed with no department or ministry functioning properly. That is indirect result of the dictatorship but i dont want to go there. The thing is one man cannot in any way do each and everything on his own. There is no doubt he is the most hard working Chief minister which every one admits. He goes where ever he can , he has more portfolios than any other minister. He works almost 14-15 hours every day. The recent dengue attack would let us know how much it has become difficult to govern when no one functions.Like we came to know that the spray did not worked cause the people who sprayed did not have the training. Now this is not a function of a CM to make sure the training is done. There are thousands of employees from health dept and sanitation dept who were suppose to make sure that is done. But because they were all not performing this is what happened. And even after that happened i am sure no one would disagree that the way he worked hard was remarkable. Do you even imagine any other CM right now in pakistan to take things as seriously as he did.
He has been suspending people as soon as he knows the person is not doing his job but like in urdu we say "awaa ka awaa hi bigra hua hai" So it would take time before the things get back on track.
Even in a situation like this, his visits to china to get them build few power plants, his visit to turkey to get more scholarships for pakistanis, his visit to u.k to get TEVTA start programs like he does are some of the things we should give credit to. Not to mention the program for building homes for poor, building new schools for the poor which have all the facilities, building a bridge in Lahore in 90 days. His hard work during last years floods. His 2 ruppee roti scheme for poor. All of them together make him the top CM for pakistan during this time.
Lastly you go and check the turkish system which is preety much strong and working. OUr government dept needs a major overhaul but offcourse that would take time and yes it should be done as soon as possible.
My friend - trust me i'm not a paid worker and you wont see me abusing anyone. Anyways, you state that no case has been proven against nawaz and co, well unfortunately that is because there is a systematic failure within the judiciary, establishment, bureaucracy and other key institutions of the state (police and prosecuting agencies), where corruption and nepotism is wide spread. In this type of environment the corrupt elite (political, business, civil service) will use their influence to evade justice by bribing their way out of the courts or killing off the prosecution’s case by bribing and intimidating witnesses and judges. I have seen it happen in Lahore, Faislabad and Jhelum and know fully well how these people operate.
You claim that there corruption cases against the Sharifs and his cronies were false and that why Musharaf couldnt convict them. Lets be clear - Musharaf had no interest in following through on the corruption cases against Nawaz, Zardari and co, so he kept the cases as a bargaining tool to keep them under pressure (as part of the deals that they signed with him and their foreign pay masters). This was more or less history repeating itself as this has been the same during the terms of PPP and PLMN.
You must be nave to think that Nawaz sharif or zardari or many of our political elite could have amassed the billions they have abroad through the business they own in Pakistan. Unfortuntely the basic maths doesnt add up – the income doesn't match the assets. Its a simple no brainer. Why do you think they don't declare their assets. In developed countries people question the assets of their leaders and they have to declare where and how they amassed the money. Even a slight hint of wrongdoing would mean the end of their political career, unfortunately in our case we make excuses for the elite by saying they made mistakes and that’s why we are where we are. We call ourselves muslims and are quick to preach morality but as a nation when it comes to corruption we have become apathetic and tolerant to this crime. Our history is full of people with moral fibre and integrity but unfortunately we who claim to be the custodians of this great civilisation choose to ignore these principles. I’ll give you an example of moral shame in 2009, a former president of South Korea Roh Moo-hyun, shamed by a corruption scandal committed suicide by jumping from a mountain. He left a suicide note, which said “too many people are suffering because of me”. Go across our country and see how many people are suffering because of the ill policies of our so called leaders.
Now I’ll move on to the issue around administration and good governance. After corruption the biggest ill of Pakistan is the basic ineptitude and incompetence of the political elite, bureaucracy and local administration. Basically the people in power and influence across the country are either incapable or have no interest in making a difference to the wellbeing of the masses. To make matters worse these same inept leaders use the corrupt governance system to stay at the helm of power and to make financial gains . Jobs can only be secured by paying a bribe or using a parchi. That’s why we have organisations packed with uneducated and incompetent people who are the biggest obstacles to change. Once in the job the main objective is to accumulate wealth rather than professional competence and integrity, by favouring there masters by looking the other way on dodgy land deals, issuing dodgy tenders, issuing and writing off loans. Same could be said for our politicians whose pay through their noses to secure party offices –again one should ask themselves why would they do that? They pay lip service to the needs of the people, whilst satisfying their own greed.
One could argue that corruption is rife in countries like, China, Indonasia and India, however the difference between them and Pakistan is that its leadership has shown some degree of competence and has helped to build up the infrastructure and environment required to develop a successful economy. In our case since the mid 60s we have gone down hill, its been one basket case after the other.
You admit that PLMN haven’t delivered in there time in government once asks why should these inept people be given another chance to play with the livelihoods of the masses.
I have no qualms in admitting that I am an idealist, and therefore for me good governance and honesty are two key principles that are leaders should me measured against – unfortunately the current political elite (PLMN, PPP, ANP, MQM, PLMQ, JUI) fail on both accounts.
