PA passes KP Child Protection, Welfare Bill 2010

[muhsina]

These are good steps but the real issue is something else. One needs to eradicate the root cause of the issue. The question which should be answered is that why our innocent children instead of going to schools fall prey to the exploitation and sexploitation in the first place.

Just imagine a family which is well off with either of the parents doing a job to win their bread and butter. Obviously in that case the kids will be getting their education in a normal way and there will be no child labor or other form of child abuse or exploitation. It is when the sources of income are less, demographic pressure per family is more, the society is consumer oriented and the state has no welfare program that the children are compelled to get indulged in those activities which are not meant for their age group.

Hence the real task for the govt is to think about the means of CAPITAL CREATION using the creative faculties of its masses which i always available in the form of human resource. It is by creating and innovating new means of income , creating new technology, exploring new venues of income generation and a policy which encourages and attracts capital that the govt of KPk will be able to ensure the future of our children as well as the youngsters failing which such policies will fire back. If you don’t have a means of income and your children also do not work or learn any skill due to such bill then society will get more frustrated instead of getting a relief.

Good point raised. That refers to the second level of reasons for our deprivation. There are two ways to get your right.

The first method is through constitutional means, parliamentary means and political means. Just imagine if you are asking for billions and you just conduct a low level meeting with the local press despite knowing the fact that the media is also biased and anti Pashtun oriented in addition to the lack of political acumen in the leadership of Pashtuns then which fool will give you your right. Hence in that case you have to have a say in the helm of affairs due to your presentation, acumen, charisma and personality which is deeply lacking in ANP. In my opinion vis a vis ANP, Fazal Rehman has got it more. He knows how to make his opinion worth listening and worth considering and how to use his physical weight to put weight in what he says. The ANP guys have a special shyness syndrome. They love to shy away from their own demands and Pakhtun rights and consider it a sin to talk about them in loud and clear terms. Hence their say is not taken very seriously as compared to for example MQM or JUI.

The second method to get your rights is being a Pressure group. We have seen that PML N literally dictated the reinstatement of the Chief Jutice using that method. MQM got the result of Hyderabad Distt issue by the same method. The Baloch can literally dictate their terms by using the pressure group technique. However the amount of hatred Pakhtuns have developed for ANP due to their misrepresentation and indifferent means of mass communication , will be a great hurdle in their way to launch a powerful agitation for their rights. It is when you love your leaders and your party due to their contribution and interaction with masses that people will volunteer to get to the roads and streets. For ANP the major problem is that they did not train the nations in nationalist struggle for winning of their rights nor are they ready to take the risk to agitate themselves so they all have to beg Punjab and lament all the times despite being targeted by religious bigots.

My own assessment is that the leadership is intellectually mediocre hence lacking the admin and statecraft skills to achieve certain national targets. Once the leadership of Pakhtuns is in the hands of wise, knowledgeable and nationalist persons I am sure these targets are much less than the targets which our elders had achieved in more unfavorable circumstances in their era.

I personally prefer PKMAP and their leadership as you see the type of ideological commitment in them as compared to ANP.

Muhsina, I agree with your post but you also need to cut some slack to the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, its the least development and severely damaged. They are trying to bring changes and new resolutions. The real task is indeed Capital creation but how can that be possible when Punjab refuses to pay us our royalty charges.


We are slaves of Punjab. Do you agree?

There is no doubt Pashtuns of Pakhtunkhwa Watan are slaves of Punjab.

[pir_Rokhan]

My analysis is as follows:

It is a fact that :

Pashtuns willingly or unwillingly are the slaves of Punjab due to the nomenclature of the state they are living in and their slavery has been made sanctified to them by naming it patriotism and Muslim brotherhood etc following the agenda of all imperialists.

The defacto source of power in the state is occupied by Punjab in the form of army and other forces while the fort of industrial and monetary power is occupied by the Mahajirs. The source of natural resources like minerals and water however is with the Baloch and Pashtuns respectively both of which are solely exploited by Punjab solely for the last 63 years.

The cultural and historic ties of both Pashtuns of Pashtunkhwa and Baloch have been much stronger with Afghans than Punjab and Sindh. The exploitation of both oppressed nations in Pakistan is a factor which repels both from Pakistan while the cultural and historic commonality element attracts them both to Afghanistan.

Hence the natural and logical consequence of this equation is the cessation of both nations from Pakistan and

a) either the formation of a seperate state or

b) their unification with Afghanistan.

In either case:

It is an established fact of Political science that:

1) Political goals cannot be achieved through non political means,

2) Collective goals cannot be achieved individually

3) The individuality of a person gets perfected when the person strives for collective cause and the collective cause cannot be perfected if you dont have individuals of substance

The logical result of these three premises is that Pashtuns of Pakistan have to support a political struggle in one way or another to get rid of slavery of Punjab and achieve the goal of Freedom.

Hence it is suggested that the Pashtuns of Pashtunkhwa should either support any of the existing political parties [ANP or PKMAP,though as Muhsina pointed out, PKMAP seems to understand the requirements of the freedom struggle more than ANP which which has a pro Pakistan agenda] or atleast support anyone or another in any form [ intellectually, financially, academically etc].

Pir Rokhana! It would be better if you had post it in politics section. This post is so precious.

I wish I had that perfect sense of proportion as you have. However I dont mind if any of the ADMINS can shift it to its relevant section. I just reflected on the topic which was being discussed.

Pir, can you name the pros and cons of PK re-uniting with Afghanistan; pros and cons of a separate state; pros and cons of reconciling with Pakistan.

Thank you!

I will reflect on it in a seperate thread from some new perspectives. This topic has already gone beyond the scope of current thread. I am in the process of a writeup.
