Pakistan as a nation must wakeup and deliver to the demands of new era. The cultural and social evolution of the nation will be meaningless until the people of Pakistan keep choosing the corrupt leaders just because of their political affiliations. The corrupt politicians have been consistently making bad choices for the country. It is shameful that according to a published news article, over 8000 people from public offices of Govt. of Pakistan (members of national Assembly, members of provincial assemblies, many executives from the offices of government of Pakistan, executives from Military offices of Pak Armed Forces etc. ) were responsible for financial fraud with the nation. They were supposed to protect the future of this nation instead they robbed and took whatever they could piece by piece. The embarassing thing is that many people from this list have been elected again to the public offices, or are serving in some capacity to public offices again.
Financial fraud is just one side of the story. It looks like the nation has been under the influence of military thugs, and religious thugs for some time now. Their influence is so much that it has affected the cultural fabric of Pakistan. The curriculum in primary, secondary, and even on university level education is politically distorted when it comes to history of indo-pak subcontinent. The military has consistently gained by creating an artificial hype on how Pakistan as a nation should always be prepared to fight with India. Using this approach, the Pak Army Generals and high ranking officials have raked in billions of dollars on individual level from the poor masses of this country. Religious thugs (religious party leaders) on the other hand have always created conspiracy theories on how the rest of the western world is among foes of Pakistan. Even though Pakistan accepts all sorts of financial aid, strategic help, and loan guarantees from many western countries; yet these mullahs will never be on good terms with the donor countries. Just like they would like to keep the women confined in their homes as a commodity, they assume all rights to treat the nation as a commodity as they would to women.
Under the guidance of these mullahs, the education system allows children to join a "madrasa" instead of a school, which is a very criminal act in itself. A child of that age who could go to KG or Grade 1 to get traditional education does not even know about the choices he/she has. He/she is sent to Madrasa of his parents' choice, and there on he/she stays there for major part of the life learning religion. Generally parents dont bother to seek what their kid is learning in madradsa. Of course what the child learn is highly dependent on who is teaching at madrasa. The separation of traditional education and religious education is toxic, especially when there is a lack of established system to evaluate the religious curriculum.
All the best Pakistan !
