Do vote on May 11 for positive change in Pakistan

Obviously by May 11, 2013 I am referring to upcoming Pakistan general elections. In around last two decades and specifically in last five to six years this country saw the worst of situations. Problems are not unknown to any Pakistani and these obviously are Electricity Load shedding, Gas Shortage, Law ‘n’ order situation, higher levels of corruptions, tax theft by elected members of assemblies, poor health and education facilities, bad economic situation, closing industries due  to no efforts to make electricity available, foreign incisions, terrorism and what not. We are also left far far behind in terms of communications and technology from most of rest of the world. This is very tiny amount of literate people gone out of their […]

Electricity Load shedding gone worse in Pakistan as the caretaker government took over the country

Now a days people of Pakistan specially Punjab are facing the worst electricity load shedding of history comprising more than 12 hours daily. This is due to the worst performance of previous government. They have done noting to solve the country’s biggest problem, which is shortage of electricity. Things were even better before the previous government of Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) and gone worse due to non payment of fuel to the stakeholders providing fuel to electricity generators. They kept taking the bills from consumers but not payed the cost of fuel, each month they were owing more than previous to fuel providers, circular dept increased, which resulted in partial or full closure of some powerhouses. As the PPP government […]

CNG Load shedding continues even in off peak season in Pakistan, who is responsible

As winters are long gone and we are well into the summer season. Which means the house hold demand of Natural Gas is at its lowest.

CNG which is environment friendly and is much cheaper than Petrol (Gasoline) and Diesel, and also is preference of most of vehicle owners in Pakistan. But unfortunately due to the wrong policies of previous government, the whole future availability of CNG is in jeopardy. Even right now CNG is available to people of Pakistan only for four days in a week and despite the fact that the peak season of Natural Gas […]

Bhuttos family’s bad habbit of renaming stuff on their own names

In Pakistan there is a habit of political parties that they start renaming all the country’s assets or any new project started by them for country using country’s money they do, on their own party’s leader names. This trend never bothered me until this last time when Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) crossed all the limits and renamed lots of road’s, hospitals, airports and almost all new projects on name of their leader Benazir Bhutto who was assassinated after a political rally on way out of venue. For example why would some one in their right mind rename the Airport of Islamabad capital city from Islamabad International Airport to Benazir Bhutto International Airport. I mean in another country when someone will […]
