Ministry of Foreign Affairs

Ever since MNS govt. (which is ironically continuing as per PM SKA’s own admissions) came into power, Pakistan is without an effective Foreign Minister. Now the portfolio has been passed on to Mr. Khurram Dastgir who is already dabbling pathetically in the insurmountable-for-him defence affairs of the country.  What kind of a joke is this with the nation, especially when we are having the most trying and deteriorating by day relations with the most powerful nation of the world ?  Can’t we find ONE full time capable and competent person out of a nation of over 200 millions blessed with thousands of par excellence intellectuals to head our foreign ministry? 

Why is the Min FA being subjected to such an uncaring operation? Is it by design (hope not) or just due to some “manufacturing” defect in our rulers, one just cannot dismiss it so lightly and has to give it a serious thought ?!

God save Pakistan.
