It never works for us because we never let it work for us. Democracy is a tree which will not start giving your fruit or a shade right there and then. It will take its time and the more time we give it the larger the shade will grow and the stronger it will get.

But we want results overnight. As you mentioned the “Ideal World”. I believe even if we get into that from today, and every module of our system starts working the way it should in the so called ideal world, it will even then take us at the least three generations to reach up to the mark of first world country. But thats again is very hypothetical and the wish list grows !!!

Not to forget, even American democracy is not “ideal”

Although, very well written, this article has some alternatives which are far from reality. Granted that Zardari is ousted and mid term election takes place (revisiting the era of Benazir-Nawaz musical chair game of 80s-90s), to be honest Nawaz Sharif is popular leader of North Punjab as Altaf Hussain is popular leader of South Sind. If elections are manipulated by powers that be behind the curtain,the consequences would be more disasterous than the after effects of previous manipulations in nineties.

Lastly, one more military governmen and we are four pieces.

@tayyab.. so karo na try kyn nahi karta koi try???

Baton se kia hoga…try everyone responsible…but cases should not have political priority which is what is happening here.
why doesn’t someone expose te actual sharks.. the businessmen who fund these politicians and then make illegal gains by their political connections why doesn’t someone speak of the stock exchange and what happened there?

FAISAL K 8000 CASES AND TEH HUGE AMOUTN DOESNT MEAN WE LET THE CORRUPT PEOPLE GO SCOT FREE… I AM SORRY I DONT AGREE.. EVEN IF THERE ARE 80000 CASES THEY SHOULD BE TRIED… AND REGARDING SPEED OF JUSTICE IF SHARIAT COURTS CAN GIVE DECISIONS IN 3 DAYS OUR COURTS CAN ALSO SPEED UP TEH PROCESS

THAT SAID I AGREE THAT MISSING PERSONS AND OLD CASES OF PEOPLE LYING PENDING FOR MORE THAN 20 YEARS SHOULD BE EXPEDITED

“is democracy the best system for Pakistan?
If it is then why does it never work for us?”

democratic system takes time to tinker u impatient dum ass !
wine wine wine … complain this complain that … try patience for a change … look at recent U.S. history if you may … DEMOCRACY TAKES TIME – its not like all those fixer uppers our army has been giving us all the time.

also, have you ever seen democracy at work ? – I guess not, because you, like me, are an unfortunate Pakistani – but this is changing, let it … don’t wine abt it

very interesting coverage… however, can someone tell how a common Pakistan will be effected right away: the common persons problems are:
1. day to day earnings, (roti -> khana)…
2. shelter/security, (kapra & makan)…
3. education… (parhaee)…
its amazing that our educated lot are falling in for the NOISE these people want us to follow not the real ground realities…

Ty all for your comments, the point i tried to make was this

With all the country is going through with no one as much as casting an eye towards the missing persons cases..is this the right time to do what the SC did? I am not in favor of corruption or of not trying people as they should be..but 8000 cases like shobz said takes a hell of a lot of resources.. what of the people serving false time because no one is ready to take their cases up…tareekhon pe tareekhen parti hain bas..where is there mention of the many many businessmen who have benefited from the nro..where is the list of those defaulters who looted public money in the karachi stock exchange??

Ty Sawj u have been with this blog from the start…i have a page for it on face book by the same name “deadpan thoughts”
