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

Ofcourse I am. ready and willing.
You are very right about things you have said, expecially about being fractured society and people living lives in little caccoons. And problems are deep, very deep indeed. But in every age and at every historical moment in any nations’ life, problems are deep and wide. These were so for Washington, jefferson and colleagues. These were so for Mao and comrades. They were so for Ghandi and Nehru. These were so for Jinnah.
Today I was thinking what must have the Prophet gone through? He must have felt so much despair, desperation and disappointment. Were there any moments of hopelessness for him? He had very few people with him and some of the most powerful people in Arabia were against him. He ran from pillar to post. Was stoned, chased, hit, abused, thrown out, forced to migrate and scorned upon for years. How strong his faith must have been. We must hold onto ours.
You are right about the party and you are spot on about everyone wanting to maintian status quo. except that there are exceptions and I have met people who do want a change and will do their bit for it.
So where do we start ? Lets start talking.

With Zardari as president and Gilani as PM, the PPP has no genuine excuses to not perform now.
They should take their responsibility seriously to go about delivering on their oft-repeated promise of roti, kapra aur makan. Please read http://www.riazhaq.com/2008/09/uncle-sam-saves-fan nie-and-freddie.html for serious suggestions to that.
To the people of Pakistan I’d like to say: It’s better to light a candle than to curse the darkness. Here’s more for you to read: http://www.riazhaq.com/2008/09/light-candle-dont-c urse-darkness-in.html
