Dear Readers,
While All Things Pakistan has remained alive and online, it has been dormant since June 11, 2011 - when, on the blog's 5th anniversary, we decided that it was time to move on. We have been heartened by your messages and the fact that a steady traffic has continued to enjoy the archived content on ATP. While the blog itself will remain dormant, we are now beginning to add occasional (but infrequent) new material by the original authors of the blog, mostly to archive what they may now publish elsewhere. We will also be updating older posts to make sure that new readers who stumble onto this site still find it useful.
We hope you will continue to find ATP a useful venue to reflect upon and express your Pakistaniat. - Editors

hey buddies, whoever is our prime minister and whoever is our president of our country, we should respect them and one important thing to say is that we should not criticize their way of politics, what we should do is to think that what are actually WE contributing to our country? moreover, what are WE doing for the development or the reinstatement of our country?
we Pakistanis always criticize our politicians, but we have never thought about our responsibilities and our duties,
so, be honest and faithful to your duties and respect your politicians,
thanks,

is it not tragic that only “makdooms” and jaagirdaars are allowed to rule pakistan always,never a patriotic and working class pakistani was made prime misniter ever in pak history.
ppp,s has announced yusuf reza gilani as new prime minsiter of pakistan,,,some key facst regarding him are given below
Makhdoom Syed Yousuf Raza Gillani belongs to an influential and spiritual Shia family of Multan, born on June 9, 1952 in Karachi, Pakistan. His father was a descendant of Syed Musa Pak, a leading spiritual figure of Multan who had hailed from the Iranian province of Gilan. One of Gillani’s aunts (sister of his mother) is the wife of Pir Pagara. Makhdoom Syed Yousaf Raza Gillani is married and has four sons. The eldest son of Yousaf Raza Gillani, Makhdoom Syed Abdul Qadir Gillani, will marry the grand-daughter of Pir Pagara on March 24, 2008 in Karachi, Sindh, Pakistan.
I believe in democracy and I want Musharraf to go and military rule to end. But frankly, it is as much a joke of democracy when you have a general ruling as when you have a college kid who is elected by no one deciding the fate of the nation. It is disgusting that Zardari is now playing this royalty card by having Bilalwal come to supposedly “decide” who the prime minister will be. Why don’t the elected PPP MNAs do it?
I am really sad that our politicians are going to again squander away this chance at democracy.
Looks like Yousaf Gilani has gained momentum.
