Hi Guybrush and others!
Good u brought this topic here instead of in the student section.
I was thinking to reply Sumaan in that area. Any way, i am going to give it straight to u friends. First of all, whether they call us Paki or Pakistani it really doesn't matter. The problem is not with them but it is with us. We as a group has developed a reputation which is our own creation. Why blame goras? Goras don't come to our country to beg for jobs and money. We are the carpet beggers not goras. Beside, even if we don't go abroad, who is living on the mercy of IMF and World Bank? Goras or we? Whose govt. begs for extension of repayment of IMF loans on a regular basis.
Tell me honestly, what r the accomplishments of our society in the last 50 years? Please don't spin the truth! We are one of the unique nations in the world in many respects. Some of which are as follows
1. Only country whose major part said bye bye and we still retained our old name. Not to mention one of the biggest military surrender in
the history of the world.
2. We are on the top of corruption index in the world. (Perhaps among first three).
3. One of the few countries in the world where merit has never been accepted by an incompetent, corrupt,lazy and almost inhuman administration. We prefer incompetence over competence, geography over good values. Despite the teaching of our Prophet who said in his last address to give no preference to Arabi over Ajami.
4. Till a few years back, this was a failed state and an economic basket case.Thanks to our current mard-e-momin that things are turning around. There was a total choron ka raj (Bibi and Baba duo).
Then u thump ur chests and say that we are proud. Proud of what?
Yes proud of expliotation of poor, murder of two civilian prime ministers! A 40% budget for military while people are illiterate and starving. Non existence fundamental human rights, a hot bed of religious discrimination and intolerance. Give me a break!
Yes we live in delusional world. 99% of the population is willing to leave the country even if they risk their lives. Whose nationals get deported from all over the world by plane load. Even a poor country like Sri Lanka sent back some proud brothers of ours!
I can go on and on but friends, let us be realistic! first bring ourselves to a certain standard and then ask the world to respect us!
Don't just shot off words and expect others to have any respect for u.
Respect is not a right. It is earned. Not by words but by deeds.
I hope i have given u a chance to think and may be change a little bit in the right direction.
Thank you!
