How Koreans have responded to Corona.
I'm living in South Korea since Corona outbreak. There is an admirable Govt effort, ranging from prevention to medical care. However I would mention the aspect that we in Pakistan must emulate to help overcome...
1/4
#CoronaVirusPakistan
..this pandemic.
Every Korean citizen has been acting as a very responsible and honest Govt functionary.
If the Govt asks them to
- stay indoors; it is like a self imposed curfew on the streets.
- avoid public places; the shopping malls, parks etc are empty.
2/4
- wear masks; everyone wears without fail.
- rationing of essential items like masks, water, bread etc..everyone observes; no complains
- Sanitising; every public place, incl pvt has placed sanitizers at entrance.
My dear countrymen GoP has given certain very essential...
3/4
...instructions at a very appropriate time. Yet the Govt cannot act on it on your behalf. A country with as dense population as ours is at a great risk of pandemic spread.
Stand with your Govt and defeat the disease, it's a moment to exhibit our element of responsibility.

South of India had three powers..
1/7
..as Mughal power had declined; Nizam of Hyderabad, Sultanate of Mysore and Marhattas of Pune.

1757. British defeat Nizam first, ensuring that Mysore and Marhattas remained neutral.
1799. Next came Mysore, Nizam was a British puppet by than, but even Marhattas joined..
2/7
..the British against Tipu.
1819. Next came the turn of Marhattas (obviously lol)..🙂
British now controlled South India.

Now comes North.

Lets redefine our ctr terrorism strat.
Premised on the fact that terrorism has been a very successful business for TTP so far, and State has been unable to do much about it.
How is that..?
TTP has numerous financial resources, ranging from extortion, narco and weapons...
1/7
..smuggling, taxing the locals (donations), not to mention the indirect financial support they get from hostile agencies.
Their extortion cum donation business is so sophisticated that almost all tribals based in gulf pay them money to secure their relatives back home.
2/7
Why TTA (or factions of) support TTP is also partially due to its better financial posn.
Issue.
The State is combating TTP in a direct manner, i.e. through mil ops.
This is creating an envmt conducive to TTP instead of defeating it. As it helps flaming anti state narrative..

Ibne Khuldun on Ulema role in politics.
"Ulema's mind and conscience, while grappling with theological problems and ideological insinuations, assumes a conjectured viewpoint.
Having being subjected to the various stages of this mental debate, their mindset is far removed..
1/5
..from the real life complications that are absolutely necessary for the political issues.
The balance of thought and action required in politics can not be attained by a conjectured thought process.
This is the reason why, Ulema usually makes mistakes in political...
2/5
..matters which are detrimental to the nation's future.
In state-craft and politics; Ulema, Scholars, Philosophers do have their niche though. However imp it is to respect their traditional role, it must restrict to their domain.
