It is possible that Musharraf could be under the control of these handlers even now?..... It shows that as an Army officer, Pervez Musharraf covered the connection of a lady to a foreign intelligence agency. Normally one is supposed to tell the authorities. That gives credence to the well founded allegations that he also had, and still has, foreign handlers.
Musharraf had handlers in Mossad-US Agency since the 80s
Abid Ullah Jan
It is possible that Musharraf could be under the control of these handlers even now? If you are aware of WTC-Building 7 controlled demolition on September 11, 2001, then you know there is something fishy – that it was an inside job . Like the other two towers, Building 7 came down in seconds defying gravity (100 metres in 4.5 seconds) which was a controlled demolition and BBC read the demise of the Building 20 minutes before it happened.
However, how does it connect to Musharraf and him being the agent of foreign intelligence agencies long before he even thought that he would be the Commander in Chief?
Here are some tips for thoughtful, resourceful and brave researchers to find the truth about the real Musharraf and bring him to justice for treason and betrayal under his own Army Act:
- Question: Why was Musharraf fired in Oct. 1999?
- Tip –1 : Musharraf's illegal foreign contacts are not so hidden either . Some were revealed, but no one will talk. They became state secrets. See the case of Javed Hashmi, for example.
- Tip – 2: In the 80s, there was a Journalist John Doe and his wife Agent Jane Doe, in Rawalpindi.
John Doe was divorcing his wife. It was in court. Musharraf was the representative of the lady Jane Doe in the court. Divorce happened but Mush made sure that John Doe did not open his mouth about the real reason behind the divorce in Public Court.
The real reason behind the journalist John Doe divorcing his wife was that she was an agent of a foreign intelligence agency. As John Doe discovered it, he no longer wanted to continue the marriage. Interestingly, journalist John Doe's wife was a very close relative of Musharraf.
- Tip – 3: This is authentic story. But to find out about the journalist John Doe and his wife Jane Doe in detail, one has to check the family court record in Rawalpindi. During the divorce proceedings Musharraf was the representative of the lady Jane Doe.
It shows that as an Army officer, Pervez Musharraf covered the connection of a lady to a foreign intelligence agency. Normally one is supposed to tell the authorities. That gives credence to the well founded allegations that he also had, and still has, foreign handlers.
How is it connected to 9/11? When I was doing my research into the ISI connection to 9/11, I gave General Musharraf a huge benefit of the doubt in the book, From BCCI to ISI: The Saga of Entrapment Continues. However, the deeper one goes, the more he realizes that it is almost impossible
that ISI would be using its human assets; its human assets will be linked to the CIA, M16 and others; the human assets will be meeting Osama and the foreign agencies at the same time; the Chief of the ISI will also be meeting his human assets as well as the high level officials in the US around the same time and also wiring money ($100,000) to the lead "hijacker” in the Operation 9/11.
Gen. Mahmoud Ahmad was never questioned by 911 commission, is a Tableeghi Jamaat member with a long beard now. He maintains a house at Mai de Khoi, Faisalabad and one in Islamabad. He was chairman of a government entity like fertilizer corporation. Musharraf was never asked as to why he said," Daniel Pearl got over intrusive......". Why Omar Sheikh was never produced in an open court? And why Benazir talks of Omar Shiekh as the murderer of Osama with David Frost on November 2,2007?
Musharraf was the Director Military Intelligence when the CIA supported the creation of the Taliban/Al-Qaeda in Afghanistan. Brig. Gen. Ejaz Shah was the handler of Omar Sheikh per Benazir. This shows Musharraf was very much part of 911 and cover up (of it being inside job with Dick Cheney at Command. Ώ]
Musharraf's connections to foreign intelligence agencies since the early period of his carrier suggests that he is not out of the loop when it comes to operation 9/11. He is one of the main culprits. If any other individual had sent even a dime to Atta, he might have died of waterboarding and
other torture techniques by now. However, General Mohamoud is a free main in Pakistan. So despite deep connections to the alleged hijackers to the ISI, nothing happens to the Pakistani Generals or Pakistan as such. To the contrary, remember how former CIA director James Woolsey tried to prove Atta met Iraq security officials, but could not. That was the time when they were looking for justifications for the war of aggression on Iraq.
Eqbal Ahmad in 1998 said that Osama was just the excuse to go into the Oil lands......Iraq, Afghanistan, Iran, Pakistan. And his observation seems true. The warlords needed time. They needed moles at the highest positions, such as the Chief of Pakistan armed forces. Musharraf had to kill the Chief of Air staff Mushaf Ali Mir because he won't agree with Musharraf's policy and planning(Mushaf was a patriot). He had to depart.¼/SPAN>Mushaf died in a plane crash in clear weather in the most safest plane, along with his wife and closest confidants. Controversial author Gerald Posner implies that all of these events are linked together and the deaths are not accidental, but have occurred because of the testimony of captured al-Qaeda leader Abu Zubaida in March 2002 (see Early April 2002). The deaths all occurred not long after the respective governments were told of Zubaida’s confessions. This simply confirms foreign hand in Mushaf’s murder.
Benazir did not agree to Musharraf policies. Note that Musharraf says that she was "very unpopular in the Army". Musharraf thinks he alone is the Army. Benazir would not budge on his uniform issue. She had to go.
Musharraf has violated his Oath five times. It is up to the Patriotic Army men to understand the situation and use the Army Act on Musharraf to protect Pakistan from internal aggression.

Here we offer four very brief but marvelous reports on Pakistan’s great potential as a rising economy. We do this to affirm our faith in the promising future that awaits this great nation. Our other purpose is to pay tribute to General Pervez Musharraf, a Pakistani nationalist and an upright soldier of Pakistan, who is paying the price today for being direct and honest in a political culture that glorifies lies and deception.
These are four enjoyable reports, elegantly written:
1. Pakistan: Now or Never [Source: Reuters blog on Pakistan.]
2. Pakistan Fund Eyes Growth Despite Violence [Source: Reuters business report.]
3. A Report by The News staff reporter Mohsin Jaffri.
4. A Summary by Mirza Rohail Baig.
We are compiling this report to give partial vindication to Mr. Musharraf, whose vision and policies we endorse on this Web site. He turned around Pakistan’s economic fortunes, a fact that goes out as a tribute to both President Musharraf and the valiant armed forces of Pakistan that have always played a great nation-building role.

Looking at the positive side of Pakistan's economy
Post a comment (3)
Posted by: Myra MacDonald
Amid the conventional wisdom that Pakistan's economy is falling to pieces — a view reinforced inside the country by soaring food prices and frequent power cuts — it's interesting to see that someone still sees it as a hot market for foreign funds.
The Melchior Selected Trust Pakistan Opportunities Fund, one of the first funds to target Pakistan, believes the country's problems have been exaggerated and sees its market as having the potential of "India at half the price", according to this Reuters story.
It quotes Naz Khan, chief executive officer of KASB Funds in Karachi, as saying there is no reason to be particularly concerned by the tensions along the border with Afghanistan. "We have locked horns with India many times along the border with them in the last few decades," he says. "This is just a different border and it shouldn't affect the overall economy."
The story prompted me to hunt around to see what else is out there painting a positive picture of Pakistan's economy.
For starters, there is an economic growth forecast of 5.5 percent for the fiscal year starting in July, according to preliminary details on the budget due out next week. That is a level that the recession-haunted west can barely remember, let alone dream about.
Then there are record oil prices swelling the coffers of Gulf Arab states for whom Pakistan is a near neighbour and obvious investment target. The Dubai-based CPI Financial online newsletter says that investors are taking a long-term view on Pakistan's economic turmoil. Of particular interest is a boom in Islamic banking — a sector relatively insulated from the credit crunch and dominated in the Gulf by Pakistani bankers.
CPI Financial quotes Mansoor Khan, managing director of Lahore-based law firm Khan Associates, as saying that conventional banks would probably be more affected by Pakistan's economic turmoil than their Islamic counterparts. "The conventional banks are western, risk-averse and do not understand 'Pakistan risk.' Islamic banks are primarily Middle Eastern or Asian and have a better understanding of the mentality of Pakistan. They will not be put off."
It's also worth reading this blog on the South Asia Investor Review about Gulf Arab investors buying up farmland in Pakistan to increase food security and control inflation.
Pakistan's economy has proved incredibly resilient in the past, surviving amongst other things, military coups, three wars with India, the division of the country into West and East Pakistan (now Bangladesh) in 1971, and tough economic sanctions after its 1998 nuclear tests. So are reports of its demise premature?
The picture may be clouded by the volatility of Pakistan's stock market, hanging on every word of the bickering political parties elected in February, and feverishly debating the future of President Pervez Musharraf. But according to the last IMF report, a boom in foreign direct investment into Pakistan (more than $5 billion in 2006/07) was driven not so much by its — until recently — soaring stock market, but primarily by greenfield investment in areas like telecoms, manufacturing and financial services.
I'll return to the downside risks in another blog, but in the meantime would be interested in hearing whether other people out there think Pakistan still makes it as a hot, or at least warm, emerging markets destination. It's also worth wondering whether any shift in the origins of foreign investment in Pakistan — still dominated by the United States — towards more Gulf Arab funding would affect the political make-up of the country.

Pakistan Fund Eyes Growth Despite Violence
Fri Jun 6, 2008
By Peter Apps
LONDON, June 6 (Reuters) - Political uncertainty, occasional bomb blasts and border militant insurgency do not stop Pakistan being a good investment destination, one of the first funds to target the country says, comparing the economy to a smaller India.
The Melchior Selected Trust Pakistan Opportunities Fund, launching this month and aimed at ultimately reaching some $200 million in Pakistani equities, says the country has been poorly portrayed and its economic fundamentals remain appealing.
"We believe Pakistan has been treated unfairly by the international media," David Graham, partner of fund manager Dalton Strategic Partnership.
Pakistan's immediate political future remains uncertain after parties supporting President Pervez Musharraf were defeated in an election while Al-Qaeda this week claimed responsibility for Monday's suicide car bomb attack on the Danish Embassy in Islamabad that killed six people.
"In looking at the Pakistan market, we see many similarities with India," Graham said, noting Pakistan had been described as "India at half the price".
Along with China, India has attracted vast fund volumes from emerging investors in recent years.
Despite political problems including the assassination of former prime minister Benazir Bhutto late last year, Graham said the economy continued to grow at 7 percent year-on-year fuelled both by its own domestic demand as well as inflows from the Middle East -- which has itself benefited from record oil prices.
Graham said 3 million Pakistanis worked in the Gulf economies, sending money home and further fuelling the economy.
He said the country was in some ways a safer and more established bet than some other "frontier markets", which have benefited this year from investors seeking to move beyond more conventional emerging destinations.
The Karachi stock exchange is down 6.7 percent so far this year, but the fund said it expected to see good prolonged growth.
"Notwithstanding the strong rise in the market over the past six years, the Karachi stock market is poised to benefit from the continued growth in the economy," said Naz Khan, chief executive officer of KASB Funds in Karachi which is advising Dalton.
"We like the energy and banking sectors and fertilizer, chemicals and cement should all do well."
He said Pakistan already produced some 30 percent of its own energy requirements and this was set to grow with new exploration.
The young population of 160 million was increasing their personal debt from a low base, boosting spending power and increasing demand for mobile phones, cars and other goods.
Karachi Stock Exchange was one of the world's least correlated with markets in the United States, he said, providing good diversification from any Western economic downturn.
Khan said there was no reason to be particularly concerned by ongoing tensions along the border with Afghanistan, where Pakistan had fought intermittent battles against the Pakistani Taliban fighters.
"We have locked horns with India many times along the border with them in the last few decades," he said. "This is just a different border and it shouldn't affect the overall economy."

3. A Report by The News Staff Reporter Mohsin Jaffri.
Mr. Jaffri wrote this report on 12 June, 2008. He can be reached at mohsin.jaffri@thenews.com.pk
The fact is that the foreign reserves still stand at over $12 billion (with $3 billion in the pipeline, as Naveed Qamar has stated), slightly below what the Musharraf government managed to achieve – highest-ever foreign reserves in the history of Pakistan.
The dollar-rupee parity was stabilized at around Rs. 60 to a dollar and this continued for the past eight years.
The inflation, which has now gone up in the last two years (because of the international oil prices shooting up) was brought down to four to five percent and remained so for six years during the tenure of the Musharraf government.
Revenue collection, each year, went up and up, to the extent that the estimates for the current fiscal stood at around the one trillion rupees mark (the actual collection in the current fiscal will now be less than the earlier estimate).
The exports went up each year, to now at around $18 billion. As far as imports are concerned, who would have thought that the international oil prices will shoot up to $135, creating not only a burden on the Pakistan economy but putting a strain even on the global economy? This has swelled the trade deficit, and not just for the luxury items, as is being made out.
As it has always been the practice in Pakistan, any newly installed government, in the first six months gets the job to discredit the previous government painting dark picture about it. Then it starts to release good news supporting its claims that the new government is heading in the right direction, although the direction is the same.
The achievements of the Muslim League-Q government are being ignored amid the anti-Musharraf slogans and sentiments. A few of the major achievements are:
1. Mandatory reserved seats for women in local government, provincial, the National Assembly and the Senate. This enables them to participate in decision-making.
2. Completion of the parliament's five-year tenure for the first time.
3. The holding of the general elections on time.
4. Modification of the Hudood laws to remove exploitation and manipulation of women.
Although the opposition MMA tried to muster support against President Musharraf, asking people to come out on the streets calling several strikes against the government, but it failed to do so.
Today, it is being said, mostly by Nawaz Sharif, that all the ills of the country would come to an end if only former Chief Justice Iftikhar Chaudhry and other judges are restored to their positions. This seems like a statement by a person not ready to accept the reality of the situation and not being able to look deep into the affairs of the country. Inflation, poverty and law and order are the top priority for the people of Pakistan. The political parties must end all this, and give credit where it is due … they should help protect the country's integrity.
4. A Summary.
1. Pak Economy in 1999 was: $ 75 billion
2. Pak Economy in 2007 is: $ 160 billion

13. KHI stock exchange 1999: $ 5 billion at 700 points
14. KHI stock exchange 2007: $ 70 billion at 14,000 points
15. Foreign Direct Investment in 1999: $ 1 billion
16. Foreign Direct Investment in 2007: $ 8 billion
17. Debt servicing 1999: 65% of GDP
18. Debt servicing 2007: 26% of GDP
19. Poverty level in 1999: 34%
20. Poverty level in 2007: 24%
21. Literacy rate in 1999: 45%
22. Literacy rate in 2007: 53%
23. Pak Development programs 1999: Rs. 80 billion
24. Pak Development programs 2007: Rs. 520 billion
A fair assessment will show that Mr. Musharraf achieved an unexpected economic turnaround for Pakistan’s economy and proved wrong all skeptics who accused Pakistan of being a ‘national security state’ incapable of showing economic potential.
The events of 2007 and early 2008 have given a blow to Pakistan’s economic growth but nothing earth shattering. The fear is that the disruptive politics of the charge-sheeted PCO Judge Iftikhar Chaudhry, his chief backer Mr. Nawaz Sharif and other failed politicians might result in a fatal blow to Pakistan’s economic rise, which may take years to recover.

All following info is provided with References and sources which are verifiable - scroll till end to see the reference.
This is all the more amazing when one considers that just five years ago, Pakistan was on the verge of bankruptcy, with only a little more than $1 billion in foreign exchange reserves, its stock market teetering at 1,000 points (worth $5 billion only) and foreign debt servicing at 65% of GDP.
The forex reserves now stand at over $16.5 billion. The once ever-declining rupee has been stable at around 60-61 to a dollar since Musharraf took over. Of the 184 member countries of the IMF, Pakistan’s rate of economic growth (7%) has been one of the best in the world. Moreover, the Karachi stock market is now above 13,000 points and worth around $65 billion. On top of that, foreign debt servicing has now decreased to 28%.
1. The Pakistan economy is among the fastest growing economies in the world, having reached the size of $160 billion from a mere $70 billion in 1999. Furthermore, Pakistan attracted a record investment of $6 billion last year.

Pls Provide comparison prices also on necessities of life
What a tragedy with this nation
Lets assume what figures are painted above in appraising MUSHARRAF if are correct
How much general public is relieved
Are you yourself feel safe on the roads
Where is all painted achievements - do you see any where in general public
Suicidal cases reached to its height during his tenure
What about MUSHARRAF own Pak Army - were they safe in their own homes from generals to a fauji
Is there any most black spot in Islamic history than Lal Masjid incident in Capital City of Islamic Republic of Pakistan by Army chief & head of state on innocent Quran reading children
Is there any example in human history selling of own nationals to foreign power - in our language such person is called BARDAFAROSH
Is there any example even in Rangeela ruling period where ministers in cabinet were like Law Minister, Information Minister, Railway Minister and tens of other jokers ministers, who appointed them ??
MR Musharraf was so "great" and with so great achievements - please ask him to come among general public oand live like his own predecessor President Rafiq Tarrar
His achievemnts are so great that whole country is under dark - go and check those million of families who are living in such hot weather with out light
His achievements are so great that majority of the country is having clean water to drink ?
In 1999 US$ = 45 Rs and when he left it was 62
If Nawaz Sharif Govt. Reserves were just 900 million dollars - dollar was 45 Rs, How it went so high on Rs. 62 where as Musharraf reserves were touching 15 billion dollars - instead helping Pak currency to be strong, he kept his currency too low and kept BUSH dollar stronger - Shame on such level of a kidnapper
What is leadership - to make whole nation ZANKHA and Darpok, buzdil - leader is who keep moral and integrity of the nation in any sad situation
I can write books and books on his "ACHIEVEMENTS" - just study how many thousand Pak top officials, soldiers are killed in the hands of own nationals including generals
Just wait a few days more to listen stories of this drunken general - people will forget disgraced General YAHYA KHAN
I will ask you to provide comparison of necessities of life in October 1999 and the day Musharraf left. You will refuse to give that figure because you can not tollerate also
Take any item from Tandoor bread, milk, daal, meat, chicken, any vegetable - take any thing
Look at the living condition of general public and see where we as nation we stand in economy, security and integrity - all taken away by disgraced and black spotted MUSHARRAF
What a tragedy with this nation
Lets assume what figures are painted above in appraising MUSHARRAF if are correct
Musharraf Period Achievements
He was a serving general when he took power and thousands of his own Fauji killed on the roads of Rawalpindi, Karachi and other parts of Pakistan invluding generals
People being killed in Karachi on the roads and President Musharraf announced in public meetins same time that it was a show of power - NO investigation required
A person who kidnap a person and sell is known as BARDAFAROSH - Musharraf wrote in his book as sitting president that he sold Pakistanis to Americans and got money
He wrote an extra-ordinary chapter in History of World justice - sacked 60 judges of the country and signed as Army Chief not even as President of the country
He wrote so many new chapters - kept house arrested during all his tenure the top scientist of Pakistan Abdul Qadeer Khan, Lesson gven No other scientist or researchers should dare to serve Pakistan
In 1999 - Reserves were around US$ 900 and US$ = PRs. 45, Mr Musharraf had in books US$ 15 billion and US$ = 62 Rs - what a joke with nation
Musharraf added another blackest chapter in Islamic history. President of Pakistan and General of Islamic Republic of Pakistan used explosives to burn thousands of innocent and young children to ashes in Lal Masjid in Capital Islamabad. Demolished all buildings and re-built new white building of Masjid to remove all witnesses
Mr Musharraf's another chapter helping cruel and barbaric enemy power to enter and capture neighboring Islamic small state of Afghanistan. Now 8th year is started, USA could not capture Afghanistan and brave with integrity Muslims are standing against both US forces and Musharraf forces.
President and General made Pakistani nation Buzdil, Coward and taken all signs of integrity as a nation. Leader is who never let down his nation and bargain on nation's integrity and interests.
No One knows how many Dr Afias and her infant children are sold to enemies by this "great" soldier, general of our friends. How much money he made ?
Availability of electricity, water, wheat, dal, sabzi, meat - any basic necessities of life gone from market - this is economic achievements
Hundreds of thousands of enemy soldiers are being provided since last 8 years all neceasary basic needs of life in Afghanistan on discounted prices and own nation is paying price from our own pockets
One can write books and books on Musharraf " achievements " - un-ending
Just wait people will forget General Yahya Khan, let some one write Musharraf stories of the nights
Let this achiever come in general public and live like his predecessor former President Rafiq Tarrar - Can he dare to ???

@Mission
you sound extremely frustrated and help less.
What I appreciate is that you have expressed yourself very explicitly.
What ever you have heard and read ,you have believed that.
I do not blame you.real politics and news is not what people are saying,real politics is what they are hiding.
You have combined everything and fired it on Musharaff.
Rise of Talibaan didnot happen in Musharaff Era.
He has not asked people to do Karo Kari?
The history of torture,abuse and woman subjugation is far rooted and difficult.
It will be extremely unwise to think anyone can change the mentality of the people and the culture.
We have to see rationally ,even IMF and world bank cannot do miracles in eradicating poverty from Pakistan.
We cannot get rights speaking from their luxurious drawing rooms.
When we want to asses we have to assess on some parameters.
Those parameters are Human Rights,Stock Market,Jobs,Security and so on.
The Democracy and Freedom you want to see it would not be delivered by Feudals ,it would be delivered by people like Musharaff.
You know why because he was middle class person,brought up with some values.
If he has become a general ,let us not be jealous.I know one thing if being a middle class person I have a better chance of communication and working with Musharaff instead of any Feudal or a big businessman who has never felt the heat or rain like i did when I went to college or on the night of my exam it was load shedding and Busoun ki hartall.
But you are a new generation.Quite privilleged to born abroad.
we cannot import Democracy ,we cannot bring equal rights to PPakistani woman in PIA.
and teh very people who are taken on Terrorist charges or in Lal Masjid for tehse people woman like you and me should be murdered becaus ewe are too westernised.
They do not like opinionated woman?
So daer I feel at present Musharaff is the only person I can speak to.Not Mr.Nawaz or Zardari.

Re: Musharraf the truth - Exposed

Musharraf would be missed by many of us for his integrity, honesty and unquestionable love for Pakistan (for the sake of which he resigned giving the sniveling rats hiding behind the garb of democracy a victory). However the fact remains that Pakistan has to move on. Its actually good that he resigned and can go on to live his life hopefully in safety. As much as I would love to go the way of anti-Musharraf crowd by condemning all that the new government does even if its good, as a Pakistani patriot I do not think I could live with myself for doing so. I support Pakistan and the Pakistan that I believe Musharraf and many like him want. He was thrust into situation which was not of his making. He tried, failed at many things, succeeded at quite a few, but gave his honest best. He made mistakes and backtracked or accepted them as mistakes (which is something that nobody, not even these two rats NS and Zardari are capable of). When he made calls that were difficult, people came down hard on him, however I have always thought that he did so with Pakistan’s best interests at heart. Contrary to what the mullah crowd and his detractors have to say, he did what most others did not have the guts to do, which was to balance out Pakistan’s interests with those of the other powers (in no way an easy task). His job was an unenviable one, but he did it to the best of his abilities given the circumstances. I do not think that Pakistan has ever been in as difficult a situation as she was in when Musharraf took over. There are very many things that we wanted on which he could not deliver and we were always hoping for more, for even better, but to expect all that from one man, and that too right after the singularly devastating decades of the 90s is too much to ask. His legacy is intact with those who know what the circumstances were when he made his calls. In the end, I am left thinking about Musharraf’s legacy in the words of Teddy Roosevelt who wrote: “It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.” As Musharraf moves on, we have to be evermore watchful of the existing leadership and in case it fails to deliver then we as the Pakistani patriots have to ensure that we expose their failures to the nation. Last 9 years of growth cannot be stunted on account of the whims of a two bit feudal thug and a two-time failure of a Prime Minister. In conclusion, good luck Gen Musharraf! (I call him out as a Gen because this is what he really was and will remain so…the Presidency was thrust upon him and he did his best with it). I look forward to a strong, stable, viable Pakistan the foundation of which have been laid by Musharraf. May Allah SWT grant our democratic leaders the fortitude to fix what Musharraf intended to fix and realize the Pakistan of Quad-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah Inshallah!

This was a man who had faced bullets for his country but has been humiliated more than the servants in our kitchens. Simply because he chose to perpetuate his rule when he should have cleaned up the entire political system and groomed to a new breed of civilian leadership to replace the old corrupt politicians, just like the Bengalis and Thais have done recently. Musharraf was the best of the worst lot, the developmental projects and the successes that he outlined at his address outshine any of the ‘good things’ our incumbent leaders have ever done.
