Mr. PM..! Trade with honour not trade of honour

Dear Mr. Prime Minister,

AoA.

We take this opportunity to earnestly appeal to your honour that you should not bow before the Indians, like the dictator Pervaiz Musharraf fell to their feet, when he unilaterally allowed India to erect the fence, at the LOC of Kashmir.

As per international law, border fencing is only allowed and can be done, at the fringes of the recognised international borders only. That was the specific reason, why Pakistan never allowed fencing of borders by India, even at the working boundary i.e., the area of Indian held Kashmir bordering Pakistan’s international borders.

Mian Sahab, Pakistan and India must make trade on an equal terms; and since, as per media reports, you have decide to accord MFN or NDMA status to India on the coming Friday, even after India has refused to withdraw, non tariff barriers (NTB’s) and custom duties; you should ensure that Pakistan also imposes NTB’s and custom duties on the Indian goods, on a reciprocal basis.

Let no body say in the posterity that democrat Mian Nawaz Sharif, also fell to the feet of the Indians (when they were not even ready to allow Pakistani TV signals and sportspersons to enter into India), just like the timid dictator Pervaiz Musharraf, who fell onto the feet of the Indians, to please the Americans, in exchange for obtaining legitimacy, of his illegal government.

With best wishes and all the better hopes that you will never allow Pakistani flag to be lowered before the Indians, because peace is only durable, if it is to prevail on equal terms. Peace on unequal terms, is a sure recipe for war, in the future..!

Succeed as a Start-Up Within an Established Business

New growth initiatives can sometimes disrupt an existing business, but it is possible to succeed on both fronts. Two tactics can help an entrepreneurial unit succeed within a bigger company:
Don’t define the battle as “old” versus “new.” Too many people go into existing organizations and define success as recreating what is there. Instead, think about how to utilize existing assets, like a strong network or a devoted customer base. Take advantage of those resources.
Bring in new talent sets. Define your unit’s priority going forward (Is it software platforms? Digital capacity?). Bring in people who understand your goal, and team them up with people who understand the company. Blending new and existing talent can be very powerful.

An Open Letter to Mr. Asif Ali Zardari

AoA.

The people of Sindh in particular and other countrymen in general, highly appreciated your decision about 13 months ago, when in February 2013, the Sindh provincial assembly passed the legislation, for providing free and compulsory education and school uniforms, to a fixed percentage of the poor kids, in the vicinity of all the private schools in Sindh.

However, till to date, not a SINGLE poor child was allowed this facility of free education for poor children living in the vicinity of private schools, which is really a pathetic state of affairs.

Hope this was not a pre-election gimmick? Kindly order implementation of this great public service idea, which is already enshrined in the constitution, but sadly is a law ONLY in the Sindh province, whereas, rest of the provinces of the country have not even made it a law.

Last but not the least, in India all private schools as per law, are already providing (equal to the 20% of the enrolled students) free education and free school uniforms to the poor children, residing in their vicinity.

But here in Pakistan, who cares for the education of the poor kids, when not a soul moved on the death of the hundreds of poor children from measles, other diseases, hunger and drought.

Best Regards.

An Appeal to the PM Pakistan..!

I appeal to the Prime minister of Pakistan Mian Muhammad Nawaz Sharif that he should not bow before the Indians like the dictator Pervaiz Musharraf did when he unilaterally allowed India to fence the LOC at Kashmir.

Mian Sahab, Pakistan and India must make trade on an equal terms and since, as per media reports, you have decide to accord MFN status to India on the coming Friday, even after India has refused to withdraw non tariff barriers and custom duties, you should also impose NTB’s and custom duties on the Indian goods.

Let no body in future say that democrat Mian Nawaz Sharif licked the feet of the Indians (when they were not ready to allow Pakistani TV signals and sportspersons in India) just like dictator Pervaiz Musharraf.

My suggestion to Malik Riaz of Bahria Town is that keeping in view of the latest craze of Pakistani ladies about the “LAWN” fabric of famous brands, he should launch his own “Bahria LAWN”.
Believe me it will be an instant hit all over the country and he will earn more money than his plots.
