Affect of Political Uncertainty on Flood crisis.

One of the quality of the politicians is they have very bad memory. They think that people cry, suffer and forget. The international and Pakistani media appreciated the democratic representation of the people of Pakistan after the eight years of dictatorship. We also must not forget the sacrifices made to obtain this democracy. The people of Pakistan have always suffered more from the blunders of our leaders than from any natural disaster.

The recent flood in Pakistan is devastating and destructive. This is not only damaged the structure but we are also paying the heavy economical price, Our Economists are still figuring out the damage in this recent devastation.

Mr. Benjamin, Ex-President of Tanzania, who had said "you cannot build economic mansion on the political sand", The same is our problem, Perhaps we are relying too much on the wisdom of our politicians, I think it is the time now, We must learn now to draw a line. We have already lost everything; we cannot afford the further loss of paying the price of political uncertainty in the form of un-stable economy.

The Economical problems of the people should be addressed by the concerned authorities, they must be accountable to the people of Pakistan, Politicians have nothing to do with the economy matters, We must have an independent policy and decision making, free from any sort of political pressure and influence. This way at least we can restore the economy.

International World and MNC’s are funding billion dollars to Pakistan. If this money is mis-used now, we will lose our reputation and credibility in international world, our economic expert must form a policy, how this ‘huge’ amount will be distributed to the ‘flood victims’ through proper channel.

A layman earning daily wages don’t care about the political issues, the only thing that hurt and affect him is the economy. We can re-build this nation through economical strength. Economic progress is the biggest instrument of national integration; this would also bring multi-pluralism in our country.

Political uncertainty exists for an agenda and once the agenda is accomplished the political certainty is restored. Who should be accountable for these calculated moves?

The roots of this questions lies in history, we have never been sovereign state, There has always been governance ‘beyond curtains’, perhaps we might never know the names and faces of these people.
