As if the Karachi bridge fiasco wasn't shock enough, here come the bomb packed zealots on a killing spree. And then the governement shows this helpless face, still unwilling to admit an intelligence failure. Ofcourse the intelligence is busy with Nawaz sharif's return, how could it possibly spare time to investigate the plots being hatched in the far corners of this small country Pakistan.
Time Musharraf gave us a respite and left his job. Haven't we had enough??? Poverty, inflation, extremism, insecurity, corruption...u name it and we have it. And then he has the nerve to say, "the country needs me"; ahhhh. Self worship signals doom and time is near for him.
The construction site that Islamabd had become is gradually turning up a new face with flyovers and underpasses and the bald "green" belts. the environmentalist concerns aside, the recent bridge collapse in karachi raises quite a few questions about the durability of these hasty construction projects. Fortunately, no experience so far of the grannnddd 7th avenue, partly because my father finds it somewhat confusing..Dont blame him though, from the just one Blue Area road that linked the F-10 (now F-11) end to the Parliament, G-6 sector that is, lots of double roads and highways have stemmed up. Dont understand why Lashari is forcing this development onto a city which had now started taking pride in its lazy environs that went so well with the serene backdrop of the Margalla hills. Sooner or later though, that "bridge will have to be crossed".
My adopted, naah 17 yrs give me the right to call it MINE- city is changing and I dont like it.
