Can Imran Khan of Pakistan be the next P-Noy?
Both are deprived of first lady
By MACK P. MACALANGGAN
Imran Khan is presumed to be the last man standing in the political hologram of Pakistan without any trace of corruption.
Based on his track record as sport enthusiast, Khan underscores
public perception that he is
potentially a good leader to recover Pakistan from massive corruption
that has rocked the country for decades under traditional politicians.
In
Pakistan, media could have been used by these politicians as a channel
to continuously deceive the public and prevent the emergence of a truly
good leader like Khan as some groups in television channels applaud and
promote recycled political parties that have not done any good for the
country.
Media
play a vital role in molding the public mindset, particularly in
choosing the right leader for Pakistan. But if they are defective
recycled politicians will perpetually remain in power -- no change
whatsoever can be done in the country.
Indeed, Pakistan will remain one of the most corrupt countries in the world.
The
Philippines for once plunged into political monopoly that spawned
massive corruption and abuse of authority by its leaders during the
Martial Law era. But one man never gave up until he was murdered on his
arrival in the airport. The courageous man -- Ninoy Aquino -- has never
been forgotten by events which catapulted his late wife Corazon C.
Aquino to power and confronted by the challenges of
restoring the government of the people in a democratic country where the masses are the boss.
Now,
her son, President Benigno “ Noynoy” Aquino III, continues the struggle
to restore the will of the people using her same philosophy and that of
Ninoy.
Today, the shadow of Ninoy, never
detached from the economic progress, is being experienced by the people.
His
vision to restore democracy in the Philippines after long years of
inaction has always been the prime objective of his late wife Cory down
to her son Noynoy or P-Noy.
For the
first time in history, the Philippines has extended one billion Euro currency loan to European states.
The sincerity of P-Noy to let Filipinos feel they are the boss, although it may
not be 100 percent agreeable to them, is an evidence that he is a good
president whose vision for the general welfare of his constituents are
taking place.
At
present, the country’s reserve fund has reached $85 billion and export
revenues have risen to about $70 billion. OFW remittances have increased
to over $20 billion while revenues from tourism industry have doubled
as well.
For the first time, the Bureau of Internal Revenue has collected some P1.5 trillion.
Only
P-Noy has done this which can be regarded as the legacy of the Aquino
clan that may linger forever in the memories of the present generation
and the next to come.
If
the Philippines was able to overcome all the massive corruption in its
bureaucracy through P-Noy, Pakistan can also do it by choosing an honest
leader like Imran Khan.
Pakistan
is very rich in natural resources which is worth trillions of US
dollars, not billion, more than other countries in the Middle East.
Surrounded
by industrialized countries like China, India and Russia, if Pakistan
is managed properly by a truly visionary good leader, it may rise into
the level of G8
or Group of Eight industrialized countries in the world.
Imran
Khan is one of the most popular contenders to run in Pakistan political
exercise this coming parliamentary elections whose personality has
never been tainted with questionable activities to lead the country of
about 200 million people.
Pakistan’s
major religion is Islam under which the Almighty GOD mentioned in the
last divine book, the holy Qur’an which says: “I will not change the
status in your life unless you do the first move”.
Change
can only be realized through collective efforts of people willing the
take the challenge to reform the culture of impropriety in the
society.
The
media in Pakistan under the influence of traditional politicians will
continue to use SMI (sustained media information) to deceive public to
restore corrupt leaders in power as narrated by Mr. Muhammad Ateeque D.
Bhyria, a Pakistan born businessman whose company Sahar Pharma (S.I.T.I)
is engaged in generic pharmaceutical products usually imports from
Pakistan, Bangladesh, China and India and helps poor Filipino masses
through cheaper medicine.
Mr. Ateeque has
been engaged in business spanning 25 years in the Philippines and Singapore.
He
is appealing to his fellow citizens to be self-conscious and wise in
choosing the next leader in Pakistan for the interest of the next
generation.
Pakistan has all the potentials to grow and be compared to the
elite nations if the right leader like Imran Khan is chosen, he said. (WNYBlogs)
