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

These may not be great leaders, but the arrogance of some of the commenters is even worse.
You think YOU can do a better job? Go do it!
There should have been a Grade I” for “Idiot/Incompetent”, which they all are!
A punjabi poem. Poet unknown.
Kikli kaleer dee
Pant meray veer dee,
Shirt bha Bashir dee,
Tay tie chaachay Naseer dee,
Coat vadday Bhai da,
Landay toun leyaai da,
Fit shit karaa kay,
Dhobi toun dhowaayi da,
Scent shent laayi da,
Shauq naal paayi da,
Bus 200 rupayye vich
Babu ban jaayi da,
Fittay moonh mehngaai da,
Tay Bhutto day jawaai da…
I wish people would put a little more though in their responses. Seems they either put an A or an F.
Imagine if you were graded in life teh same way!
My opinion for the readers:
Zardari : Grade F. A do-nothing President.
Gillani: Grade F. A do-nothing Prime Minister. Since this joker and his boss Zardari have come into government I have not see any policies at all for Pakistan or leadership. Only policies that benefit their party such as BISP are being implemented.
Chaudhry : Grade D. Pakistani judiciary remains as corrupt, useless and politicized as before. Only difference is that judges have now got the same chuska of interfering in politics as the generals. Proves to me that all the fuss during Musharraf era was just politics.
Nawaz Sharif: Grade F. He is not playing the role of democratic opposition, just enjoying the perks of sitting in opposition and around the house.
Kayani : Grade C. Huge disappointment for me is that Pakistani establishment still believes in nonsense of “good militant bad militant” and “strategic depth”, even though these policies have delivered no benefit since they were initiated in 1980.
Media : Grade C. Some journalists do a good job while others are sellouts. Media is same everywhere and Pakistanis massive expectations of media are unreasonable.
thank you for reading so far :)
