It is very curious that international newspapers, magazines and other publications are not allowed in Pakistan. If Pakistan international banks, multinational companies in most businesses are allowed , why is foreign investment not welcome in the media business? When foreign investment sought - that such investment would increase employment opportunities and bring in much needed foreign exchange. But when it comes to the media the government does not say anything. Compared to Pakistan, India has allowed international investment in the media which. Foreign advertising agencies are not allowed to operate. There is no clear explanation as why this is the case. Just as foreign investment in other fields improves the income of different professionals in other fields as compared to local companies which prefer not to pay anything at all or no rules of management or anything resembling a modern business; foreign investments bring some order where there is absolute chaos. Journalists wou...

There has been a 200% increase in electricity shortage in Pakistan. At first people thought it was because of sheer incompetence of  the government. The real reason is that the US military bases in Pakistan and those which are in Afghanistan require electricity and they are stealing it from Pakistan. Food prices have risen 400% and so have fuel prices. Since Afghanistan does not generate electricity, does not grow food - so Pakistan is required to supply them. All the food which is being transported from the USA to the USA's military in Afghanistan is destroyed by the Taliban.  All food, water is cut off. The USA cannot afford air drops of food and water because such planes are likely to be destroyed besides it would be very expensive to do so. Already the war has cost too much. Bankrupted the USA, but the policy makers in the USA do not care. It is war at all costs, whereas its purpose is not known. For practical purposes, Pakistan has to supply everything to the US military. Even...

The government's electricity policy has collapsed. Now the shopkeepers, mills and different businesses are striking against the contnued absence of electricity. The price of food items have skyrocketed. The government's absolute corruption is responsible for the prevailing state of affairs. Time will tell when this government quits. People fed up with the current state of affairs. Overcharging on electricity will make no difference, when it is not supplied.

In the 1990s there was the wheat crisis and now there is the sugar crisis. Sugar has mysteriously disappeared from every city in Pakistan. People are condemning the government and rightly so. The Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) slogan 'roti, kapra aur makaan' meaning food, clothing and shelter . The existing government is of the PPP and is doing exactly the opposite of its promise. Pakistan has never experienced such a scale of scarcity of food items as it has since the PPP started running the country. Some people claim that Zardari is grabbing businesses presently he owns all the sugar mills. All he wants to do is steal as much as he can. He does not care if the people of Pakistan starve or not. He does not care about popularity - he only cares about satisfying his personal greed. This has got to stop and an investigation has to be conducted as to who is responsible for this overall food crisis. Who these people are should be taken too task. In any case if President Zardar...

The National Reconciliation Ordinance (N.R.O) is intended give more power to President Zaradari. He will use his executive powers at whim, and will not need the approval of the parliament for any decision be it right or wrong. There would be no debate in the parliament, the president's decision would be final. In short he wants to become a dictator. The elections which were conducted were sham. No one elected anyone, the results were announced, no one knows if they were genuine or not. Zardari made himself president and Gilani is prime minister because Zardari wanted him to be. Much of the parliament is filled with religious clerics (Mullahs) who have no concept of democracy. They can only preach not make a sensible speech. Had there been honest elections, the Mullahs would not be seen in the parliament. No one cares about religion. People want jobs, they want incomes which can match the ever increasing prices of virtually everything. The country is run by charlatans, completely...

Instead of calling it porn ban - I've decided to call it sex ban. People performing a whole range sexual activities which for some odd reason many find objectionable and appalling. Social networking sites make sure that people post sex pictures. Gay blogs have been closed down. Why is it that sex evokes so much anger, intolerance and absolutely stupid reactions? We were born naked and when we die our clothes might survive but our skeleton would turn to dust - what will a skeleton do with clothes in any case?. I recently discovered why porn is so popular I conducted a poll and discovered 99% that real women detest oral sex. For them it is the unthinkable, it is disgusting and it is absolutely filthy. So pornographers I would rename as specialist in sexual needs, provide a service. None of the women polled refused to comment on their sexual fantasies which of course ruled out finding out whether they fantasised about oral sex. Real women are nothing like the porn-stars, for ...

Everyone knows that Hamid Karazai was an US citizen set up by the USA to act as 'President of Afghanistan'. He was never elected that position, his job was just sit around and pretend to run a country which is not at all in his control. Now for some absurd reason the USA thinks it would be a clever thing to do is to have elections in Afghanistan and to elect Karazai. With the country in chaos, the coalition forces unable to make any headway in their war against the Taliban - there are to be elections. Who is counting the votes? Where the polls taking place? The Americans did the same thing Iraq - placing a puppet regime, a puppet parliament the same rubbish being repeated in Afghanistan. Karazai will remain the puppet president the US needs and the election will be a stupid excercise and it will not change the fact that coaliton forces are still fighting with no end in sight. How many soldiers are the invaders prepared to lose? How much are they willing to spend on new weap...
