But I tend to wonder about your views. After living so many years in this world, you still seem unable to grasp the innate yet obvious semantics of the words. It was due to the people of 50s.60s, and 70s that Pakistan is at the such a shameful state. It was those people who didnt save the country from splitting into two. It was those people, who allowed Martial laws, emergencies and sham democracies. It was those people who nationalized the country, and it was those people who screwed the nation in every possible way, and their legacies and remnants are still trying to maintain the status quo, and they always try to disdainfully brush aside the young generation to halt the change. When China and Malaysia were breaking the shackles, that previous generations of ours were hiding their heads in the sands. Pakistan of today and Pakistan of future doesnt want those old goats.

Your views are similar to those illiterate JI louts who think if you let a woman go out of the house, she'll jump into bed with the first male she meets. As for hard work, I doubt if you'll ever do what I did when I was twenty seven. I worked continuously for seventy hours with bombs falling all around me, just because my country's army and navy and railways needed oil. I worked in the intense heat of Sukkur and the bitter cold of Quetta, without ever thinking of being rewarded for it. And let me tell you, as long as people like you think that women should be enslaved, this country will never progress. Go to Malaysia and see how the Muslim women there have transformed the country. When half the population of Pakistan is denied the opportunity to work, the result is unhappiness. You need to change your attitude and stop thinking of women as child-producing machines.

People of your coterie never stress about hard work, perseverance, gaining knowledge, and research. What you always lament, as why dont Muslims of Pakistan dont undress their ladies, and why they dont all become winos and gamblers. Ah, there you are Shakir.

It's because they stick to the point when discussing business. They never bring religion into the conversation. They don't care whether their neighbour is clean-shaven or heavily bearded. They are not bothered if the woman next door goes swimming or playing tennis. They do not force their wives to stay at home. And they don't talk about what will happen to them after they're dead. But we Pakistanis (who think that Islam began on 14th August 1947) are constantly talking about whether our beards are of the right length, or whether we are sinners if we wear shirts and trousers and suits with ties, we will always remain backward as long as we think that we are always right and all the others are wrong.

Not the other way round. Anyway cant blame it. The very existence of Pakistan is based on that. The only time Pakistan is mentioned in Indian media is when they see some political circus that is so inherent to Pakistan as its happening today. As for the rest of the time, the only mention about Pakistan is when they speak of Jehadis, mullahs, Osama, Taliban etc... Only Pakistan is obsessed with India. Not the other way round.
