Reforming Pakistan’s Universties -- I
Posted by pakbrain Jan 19, 2005 02:24 pm
Being one of those who were at Quaid-i-Azam University and having been into discussions involving Dr. HB in his presence/absence, I can say I always found him vocal and criticising this country. I understand that there are problems and he is a genius but I don`t agree with the means/appraoch he has when addressing such issues.

You will see him criticising the country overall in international media more often than within Pakistan. Do you think he does not have a reach to the concerned? He is an important world-famous figure. He can say it all to Government directly in private meetings but he does not say what he is doing about it on proper places but always comes up being vocal and criticizing the system overl-all painiting Pakistan a collapsing country.

It is very easy to point at the problems; what you did about the resolution is what counts in my humble opinion. And Dr. HB is among those who has the reach to the concerned. He should better be bringing such issues on the table when meeting with concerned. If he has done that already, there is no need IMHO to tell the world what problems we are facing.

Just my two cents...
