Assalam o alaikum!

The things (I wish they were "things" and as unimportant and inanimate as "things" can be. But these "things" are living, growing, demanding-concern problems that need to be addressed) that are going on these days in Pakistan are jolting. One good news is that three Muslim presidents sat together this morning. Discussed whatever they did but this meeting in itself is a good news because our leaders don't get together like this much. There should be many more meetings like this. Our problems will be solved only when we sit together like brothers and friends.

Another positive "thing" happening today is MQM's women meeting around Jinnah Darbar. It is one of the fresh-air sort of things that refresh our being Pakistani. This really will have a good effect on Pakistani woman especially the of Karachi. MQM needs to do a lot more to win the hearts of people in other parts of the country. Work more for people!

Hafiz Saeed has been banned from entering in Islam Abad for a week with two other of his companions - Ahmed Ludhiyanwi and Abdul Razzaq. they were to attend a rally in the capital. Jama't Addawa maintains that this ban is the result of pressure from the US and that they will appeal against the decision in court, adding further that these leaders will attend the rally as scheduled.

The saddest thing happening is Balochistna problem. Our Government does not look serious in dealing with that problem and giving a solution that is acceptable to the Balochis. The case of missing persons is not to be taken so lightly. Something must be done about it. This something cannot be other than giving them their rights and providing justice to the people of this province. Outside support comes only when we do not give to someone that they deserve.
