Dear Sabih, I agree with you to the extent that people of Pakistan want food, water and electricity. However, all these basic necessities are tied up to economic prosperity. One cannot just give these necessities to people when the need it. It’s a whole economic system through which people generate these necessities though their participation.
If there is lawlessness in a country, economic activities just cannot flourish. Educated people scared about their and their children future start leaving the country, foreign investors knowing such brain drain and corruption in the society do not enter into such country. Limited jobs in country are granted to non deserving people which frustrates deserving people who either look for Canada immigration / UK HSMP / US green card/ jobs abroad or get involved into illegal activities, justifying their acts blaming on society for not providing them opportunity. One has to look at a broader picture. I work for Power (Electricity) sector, and I assure you that electricity problem cannot be resolve without foreign investment. Pakistan just doesn’t have enough liquidity to fund power project for 3 to 4 thousand megawatt. If we put ourselves in foreign investors’ shoe, would we invest our money in a lawless country? It’s not PPP, PML or X Y Z would give food, electricity and water, it’s the economic system which has to be strengthened. And strengthening economic system directly depends on law & order, justice, skilled resources and foreign investment.
