 Need to look beyond ideological issuesThese discussions will not bring prosperity to our country. Once a Chinese leader Deng Zio Peng, who is also well-known for his ideological differences with the great Chinese leader Moa, said that it does not matter that the cat is white or black but it must catch the rat. War of rumors and realitiesIn Pakistan people can’t set apart rumors and realities. Still a lot of mysteries are undisclosed. For a very long time people were confused that whether Pakistan army is sincere in war against terror or it is just misleading the international community to get maximum funds. In fact the policy of army was compelling the people to thick like this. In different areas army started operations and local community supported Pakistan army but all of a sudden the operations were stopped and agreements w Who represents the public?Pakistani society is kind of primitive society in this modern age. Still we will have to go a long way to learn different concepts about how to live in this modern world. But the problem is that we don’t feel that we are deficient in many areas and there is a need for learning to rise above this hollow self-righteousness. Every one considers is opinion to be the ultimate and accurate. And every one claims that he represents the real public opinion. Of course any one can express his or her views Policeman – A stranger in his own communityWhy a man in police uniform belonging to our own community stands like a stranger? Whether it is raining, hot summer or freezing winter, this man is always there holding a rifle. No body bothers to ask him how are you?

Hardliner media divides public opinionLast day an anchor of private TV channel was interviewing common people in Peshawar. He was standing at the site of terrorist attack in Meena Bazaar. He tried his best to divide public opinion about the terrorist attacks. Why this dictator is respected all over the world?The last two years of Musharaf were full of condemnation and blames for him.

From prison to presidencyFor almost two decades this commoner – Zardari is criticized and presented as the most corrupt and dishonest person of Pakistan. Today Zardari is the most controversial personality in Pakistani politics. He was Mr. 10%, the prisoner, the murderer, the widower and now the president. He served as investment and environment minister in Bhutto's governments. It was during this time that People’s Party opponents began using the nickname, "Mr 10%", in reference to the charges of corruption War and good governance can’t go togetherGovernance means to minimize the political, social and economical shortcomings of a state by the proper utilization of government machinery, civil society, media and market.
