 Today, my country, Pakistan is more divided than the subcontinent was in the 1960s amongst Hindus and Muslims.

Today, people call themselves Balochis, Punjabis, Pashtuns and Sindhis instead of just Pakistanis; they put their provincial ethnicity before their nationality.

People consider people from other provinces – who speak different languages -as their enemies; they forget that they all belong to the same country!

Pakistanis blame the government for all their problems, but they refuse to consider their own wrong doings.

They litter and then they complain about how dirty the city is. They bribe the police officers and then complain about the police force being corrupt. They carry guns and then create a hue and cry over how everyone carries a weapon and how the law and order conditions here are bad.
