I have been away for some time from PkPolitics but that gave me the opportunity to meet people and analyze the status of Pakistan both within and outside.
I am not going to address the culprit causes/reason/people of our present state but If I have to put it in broad category that will all fit in under these 4 Headings.
1. Corrupt Army Generals
2. Corrupt Politicians
3. USA-Israel-India Trio
4. Lack of honesty and national pride among Pakistanis (except during cricket matches)
In a nutshell, Pakistan is going down day by day and the new date for it's demise have been set in year 2014. In order to accelerate this process towards bleeding to death, USA will keep this inert state unstable and will continue to strike through our corrupt Generals and Politicians.
The Key points is to "Invade" Pakistan eventually. And Americans have decided to achieve this through their allies from both west and east of the borders. There is no way that USA will not attack Pakistan in the end and despite our inflated ego about nuclear arsenal, we will go down unless some thing radical is not done to uproot the seeds of implanted american touts both in army and among the creed of our politicians.
Pakistan is burning from north till south and our beloved Politicians are busy in their dirty politics.
Look at some statistics in terms of cost and specially electricity billing.
China has a population of 1.3 billion people (1330044605 as of mid-2008) and has 28 ministers
India has 33 ministers while their population is 1.21 billion people (2011 census)
While Pakistan's population is 187 million and we have 29 Ministers + 9 Ministers of state = 38 in total.
While our army gets 87% Free Electricity

at the same time, 15,682 WAPDA employees enjoying free electricity:

While at the same time, our MNA's get 50000 units of electricity free as per their allowance which is a simple math.
50000 units x 12 = 600000 per MNA = (@of 15 paisa per unit average) Costs RS. 9300000 per year per MNA. (Per unit price range from 10 paisa to 23 paisa) while at the same time these MNA's enjoy
Ø Monthly Salary : Rs. 120,000 to 200,000
Ø Expense for Constitution per month : Rs.100,000
Ø Office expenditure per month : Rs.140,000
Ø Traveling concession (Rs. 8 per km) : Rs.48,000 (For a visit to ISLAMABAD & return): 6000 km
Ø Daily BETA during Assembly meets : Rs.500
Ø Charge for 1st class (A/C) in train : Free (For any number of times all over PAKISTAN)
Ø Charge for Business Class in flights: Free for 40 trips / year (With wife or P.A.)
Ø Rent for Govt. hostel any where: Free
Ø Electricity costs at home : Free up to 50,000 units
Ø Local phone call charge : Free up to 1,70,000 calls
Ø TOTAL expense for a MNA per year : Rs. 32,000,000
Ø TOTAL expense for 5 years : Rs. 1,60,000,000
Ø For 534 MNA, the expense for 5 years : Rs. 85,440,000,000 (more than 800 corores)
And what are we getting from these MNA'S? Further Corruption? supporting dictators? Bowing down to USA?
This is excluding the BIG DADDY of Pakistan ARMY who are busy in draining all the resources to their top Generals and than we get people like spineless General Kiyani who is worst than a Pimp who atleast delivers after taking money from their clients or perhaps he is pimping for USA in which case, he is delivering the goods.
My Apologies but I will return to this thread again but will appreciate input meanwhile.
