Education in Pakistan and especially higher education cannot be reformed in Pakistan because the powers that be and the westernized slave minded class have vested intersts in keeping the system corrupt and inefficient. Those who are charged to reform are corrupt and incompetent themselves; how can they reform anything? It is simple as that - the more people will get educated the more people will demand for jobs (i.e. because state controls everything from God to Cricket in Pakistan), social equity, and over all reform. So the current plan is to allow only a certain number of people to get educated so that 3/4th of them could migrate from the country as low level grunt workers to some developed countries who will keep sending back precious foreign exchnge for the haramkhori of faujis and other ruling class.
As if that is not enough we have people like Hoodbhoy who want to end all state control over education and want its absolute privatization - in that case the ruling vultures will have free hand to peck the flesh off general public and since education will become unaffordable to vast majority it eventually will benefit ruling elite to keep the status quo of oppression.
Yes. It is totally hopeless. Let us accept the truth of the matter that the status quo in Pakistan cannot be changed without an armed struggle. There is no shame in admitting that. The current indifference of people to any state of affairs in Pakistan is because of the realization of this morbid truth. Their collective conscience know that once they embark on that path, it will become irreversible; they can imagine the horrible destruction that will prevail for a while before its gets any better. On the other hand, those who have vested interests in keeping the status quo are acutely conscious of this eventuality, and as a pre-emtive measure they have already embarked on the systematic assassinations (actual murders) of potential resistence leadreship already. Corrupting systematically of relatively less radical leadership is another method, which is being employed aggressively. But these tactics can only delay the inevitability.
