Impossible expectations
Published in The News on October 28, 2014
This refers to Mosharraf Zaidi's article, ‘What
does PM Sharif do next?’ (October 25). What the writer suggests is almost
impossible. How can you expect a 64-year-old man to suddenly start liking and
trusting those who do not speak the language he learnt (at his mother’s knee)? Or
those who were not born and bred in his home town? It would be a miracle if he
replaced his relatives and friends from positions of power in the country.
Such people like to be told that they are doing a very good job. If any aide
dares to point out their faults to them, he will either be dismissed or
transferred to Chichawatni the next morning.
