This article is about the Islamic Republic of Pakistan.

(Urdu: پاکِستان), officially the Islamic Republic of Pakistan, is a country in South Asia.[6] It has a 1,046 kilometres (650 mi) coastline along the Arabian Sea and Gulf of Oman in the south and is bordered by Afghanistan and Iran in the west, India in the east and the People’s Republic of China in the far northeast.[7] Tajikistan also lies very close to Pakistan but is separated by the narrow Wakhan Corridor. Thus, it occupies a crossroads position between South Asia, Central Asia and the Middle East.[8] The region forming modern Pakistan was at the heart of the ancient Indus Valley Civilisation and then later was the recipient of Vedic, Persian, Indo-Greek, Turco-Mongol, Islamic and Sikh cultures. The area has witnessed invasions and/or settlements by the Indo-Aryans, Persians, Greeks, Arabs, Turks, Afghans, Mongols and the British.[9]

In addition to the Indian independence movement which demanded an independent India, the Pakistan Movement (led by Quaid e Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah of the Muslim League), in addition to independent India, sought independent states for the majority Muslim populations of the eastern and western regions of British India as well. The British granted independence and also the creation of one Muslim majority state of Pakistan that comprised the provinces of Sindh, North-West Frontier Province, West Punjab, Balochistan and East Bengal. With the adoption of its constitution in 1956, Pakistan became an Islamic republic. In 1971, a civil war in East Pakistan resulted in the creation of Bangladesh.

Pakistan’s history has been characterized by periods of military rule and political instability. It is also the sixth most populous country in the world and has the second largest Muslim population in the world after Indonesia.[10] Pakistan has the second largest Shia Muslim population in the world.[11] It is the world’s only Muslim-majority nuclear state. Pakistan is a member of the Commonwealth of Nations, Next Eleven economies, D8, the United Nations, and a Major non-NATO ally of the United States.

Hum sab ka Pakistan!

Nov.23, 2008 in Pakistan, Pakistan Politics

Eversince I have started blogging I have read a lot of blogs writing on Pakistan. Good, bad, political, historical, news, tourism.. name it and you will find it here.

So, it’s our Pakistan. Hum sab ka “Pakistan”. We write what we feel about it. I have seen people going crazy pointing out stuff on their blogs and doing nothing than roaming the world and chilling. I sometimes wonder if we have the potential to write so much, the enthusiasm, if you know what I mean- why cannot we bring about a change??

I feel paralyzed seeing people spending millions of Rupees just to maintain a lifestyle and being politically active and then when something happens to the country they would just held protests, sit in cozy lounges, and do nothing but bullshit! woes about the country. Would not spend a penny out of their pocket but yes donate to their political leader lol! guys you love the country, the country men or you wanna be a part of the whole political scene?? To appear in talk shows, to be known socially as someone?

I like middle class people. Some of them who can do something or shall I say who have the guts, the energy, or shall I say who are eager to do something practical like remember the “pappoo yar gand na ker” (Loose ends PAkistan. I wonder what ever happened to tehr project but was a good campaign). Atleast they took an initiative then just highlighting them-self being an active member of so and so political campaign! I know people who just want there name to be on the top-list when it comes to political issues f Pakistan,  the ones who didnt spare a penny when claiming properties after migration to the country:) I hate this upper class who keeps on fighting for stupid politics. Don’t we have issues bigger than that? Dont we see mothers leaving their kids at Edhi home due to rising prices of food?? Fathers suiciding?? What And it’s all a shitty excuse that the government will change. No, it hasn’t changed.All those talks the protests that your forefathers have been doing.. I see teh same faces ever since I was born. We need a revolution and I dont think just talking will bring that.

We gotta do something or we will sunk deeper.
