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

One thing that has always made me feel proud as an “expat” Pakistani, is how everyone feels so passionately affectionate towards our late Quaid.
My only slight annoyance is that, if we can unite ourselves with admiration and humility over this one (great) man, and feel so much pride, why we cannot strive TOGETHER for a more promising future for our country.
If we honestly still have hope for Pakistan, then why can’t we take more pro-active roles in making sure we restore/create the “promised” land of our forefather?
Mr. Jinnah, we are sorry if we did not live up to your expectations. For that, we are sorry Mr Jinnah. Inshallah, we will rise up from the ashes and transform your dream into a reality. According to experts, today, we are a democratic society trapped in an undemocratic state. Tomorrow, we assure you Mr. Jinnah, we will become a democratic society flowering in a democratic state.
