Corruption Jumps 400%

Transparency International on June 17 2009, published their National Corruption Perception Survey 2009’s (NPC 2009) results, indicating that  corruption is up by 400% percent in 3 years. According to NPC 2009, “overall Corruption in 2002 has increased from Rs. 45 Billion to Rs. 195 Billion in 2009.”

The survey found that Police, Power, Health and Land are the most corrupt departments, and Judiciary, Customs & Taxation have improved their ranking since 2006.

The complete report can be found at:

I am not at all surprised to see these results. Just wait couple of more year and it will jump even more. With Zardari, his minions and other so called leaders running the show without any checks and balances, corruption will only grow.

I have always said and stood behind my statement that Democracy cannot work for Pakistan. We always need a dictator or a military government from time to time to pull Pakistan out of destruction.

So Mr, Kiyani (COAS) a little help here…!!!..

World Champions!

champion0622_l Congratulations to the entire nation for a wonderful and well deserved World Cup win. This is the first time in 17 years that Pakistan have won any major event. The last one was in 1992, when we won the World Cup. 

This could not have come at a better time as Pakistan is in a midst of uncertainty, chaos and political unrest. This win has once again proved that if we play as a unit and a team, we are invincible.

I just pray and hope that we learn from this incredible win and realize that “United we Stand” … before we (God forbid) “Divide and Fall” as a nation.

Once again, Congratulations to all Pakistanis! Pakistan Zindabad.
