Watch out Brazil! Here we come!!! Another thing I would like to add is that people think that there is no football going on in Pakistan. I live in mega city of Karachi and I would like to inform most of the people that Football is as popular in karachi as cricket( at the local level). Infact it attracts more expectators than Cricket in local matches. In the non-developed areas of Liyari and almost all the poor areas, it is the sport of the youth, where people gather to watch the young stars play on the bare surface. The players don`t even get a medic if they get injured, they fall, get up and keep playing under the sun. All they need is a little exposure and a little money to keep themselves and the game alive.

Watch out Brazil! Here we come!!! Re: # 6PAKISTANIS ARE 170% ISH PEOPLE, NOT 70%ISH.
If some one compares Jaffer Khan with Bagio, Ronaldo or XYZ, I would like to remind him that Pakistani footballers are keeping the game alive despite their poor financial situation. Where Bagio is earning millions and billions, a Pakistani footballer doesn`t even get enough money to keep himself and his family alive( no wonder he has lean legs). Hussain Shah, the famous boxer once said in his interview that he doesn`t even want to imagine the horrible days of his youth when he did not had enough money to feed his family. How can you expect him to defeat the billionaire Mike Tyson in the ring. Muhammad Yousuf, the snooker champion also faced almost the same situation. Pakistani boxers and footballers are keeping the games alive, the credit goes to them and only them and I salute them on their bravery and valour.

Education: An Abysmal Situation Re: # 23
This is an uncivilized way to ignore othes point of view.
What else can i say!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Education: An Abysmal Situation You are quite right.
But students also love to join political parties because they also get a number of benefits like getting extra marks(unofficially), escaping from failures, indulging in a number of activites which are prohibited for neutral students. Above all these students have something which everyone longs for, POWER. They can do anything to anyone and no one asks, because they are political workers.
So to uproot politics, we will have to deprive them of these previlages.
Nobody will join a party, if he is not getting ``special facilities.``

Education: An Abysmal Situation In response to comments I received

Hi ladies and gentlemen

I appreciate your comments. At the moment I can only say that in advising Arabic to include in the curriculum I intend to suggest a way to uproot Mullah’s claims of ownership on Islam. When a common man will be able to read the religious scriptures with understanding he will no longer need the Mullah to explain the religion for him, which the Mullah does happily, but according to his own motives. This will help in eradication of extremism as the person truly understanding the spirit can never go wrong, as Islam is the religion of peace.

As per the cost, if a nation can provide million-dollar cars to the so-called nation’s representatives in the assembly, billions of dollars to the white elephants of defence, it can surely provide some money to provide quality teachers and teaching facilities.

As far as dreaming and wishing is concern, I am one of those people who believe in well wishing and seeing the glass half-full. There is no tax on it (up to now) and some day I believe, my dreams will come true.

Regarding the importance of Arabic for Muslims, I will Insahallah come up with a separate derailed article on it. (Just let me get rid of these never ending final year MBBS exams)
