    Engineer,Poet,Writer,Journalist Saghier Ahmed Jafri's new message/reply to a letter.

    Let us form unity and work for the betterment of our beautiful country PAKISTAN and the Pakistani Qoum.

    Let us try to make PAKISTAN a really DEVELOPED and well Progressing Country.For this,the POLITICIANS and ALL will have to change their ""OLD HABITS"".
    China,Bangladesh,Japan,Malaysia etc. are a few examples of the countries which progressed very well rapidly.

    We kept on fighting for decades even on most essential things/subjects/issues/matters such as the construction of most essential Dams,Hydro Electric Power Stations, Proper Power,Water,Irrigation,Telecommunication Transmission, Distribution networks RESULTING in practically NO ELECTRICITY, WATER,FOOD , just getting loans , loans "enjoying" Politicians and others frequest calls for HARTALS , PHAYYAJAMS , CLOSURE of PORTS,FACTORIES,MILLS,SCHOOLS,COLLEGES, COMMERCIAL AND INDUSTRIAL UNITS, UNIVERSITIES,HOSPITALS, POLITICAL and OTHER RALLIES BLOCKING ESSENTIAL,VERY BUSY ROADS,HIGHWAYS, RESIDENTIAL,COMMERCIAL AREAS and ALL these RESULTING in Slowing down of progress,increasing un-employment,people crying,shouting,requesting BUT , we are BUSY on talking on many non-issues or non-practical/useless issues on few TV Channels etc.

    Can these """"HABITS/ACTIONS"""" of our Great Pakistani Nation bring any GOOD RESULTS,DESIRED PROGRESS/DEVELOPMENT so that our wonderful country PAKISTAN may also PROGRESS RAPIDLY like Other Countries (China,Japan,Bangladesh etc.)

    This is my personal view/thinking as an old Pakistan Independence Movement Worker/Tehreek e Pakistan Karkun/Old Member of Muslim Students Federation, participated actively under the DYNAMIC LEADERSHIP of our GREAT LEADER QUAID e AZAM MOHAMMED ALI JINNAH , FOUNDER of PAKISTAN.May be you and other people have better views,suggestions to make PAKISTAN a really strong/ powerful and self sufficient in everything ??? Please write YOUR EXPERT OPINION.I am just an old retired Engineer,Poet,Writer,Journalist,Peace Activist,Editor URDU MANZIL.

    Most of you are young people,honest,sincere,brave PAKISTANIS and MILLIONS of OVERSEAS PAKISTANIS like your Brother Saghier Jafri and ALLAH TA'ALA has given to you AQAL,HIMMAT to make PAKISTAN a wonderful,beautiful,well developed and all the time NON - STOP PROGRESSING """""""PAKISTAN"""""""" , OUR DEAR PAKISTAN.

    IF ? IF , You are not TOO BUSY may be watching a FILM from AROS or from PAROS on any TV Channel or watching any Kind/Namoona Talk Show with a lot of shouting,accusations etc. then , if you like SIRJEES, BAIGMATJEES read it TWO TIMES while Having A Real/Very Very HOT CUP of Black Namoona Coffee or Tea but , Please Special Black not the Brown Namoona.It is Just a suggestion from this Old Man Saghier Jafri/ Buddah kabhi ghar peh hai , Kabhi ghar peh Nahien hai who , saw our Great Leader Quaid e Azam Mohammed Ali Jinnah from close distance and said Salam and could see the Great Quaid's old eyes seem to be Shining when he saw students,young and old fans/people around him during the Pakistan Movement Historical Period/Days and I thought and my Grand Father Syed Yousyf Ali Jafri (Scholar) said , may be the Great Quaid is definitely confident that , AFTER GETTING PAKISTAN , THE PAKISTANI NATION will make it a REALLY DEVELOPED COUNTRY in a few years time by WORKING ALL THE TIME HARD DAY and NIGHT.

    After reading it TWO TIMES - If you like THEN , Please write your EXPERT VIEWS/ to make PAKISTAN STRONG/ PROGRESSING ALL THE TIME for YOU for YOUR CHILDREN/Present and FUTURE GENERATIONS.

    .................
    My Dear Brothers and Sisters !

    We Overseas Pakistans living in hundreds of countries are communicating with each other and we are doing everything possible to help our Pakistani Nation in need/help for the flood victims.
    Saghier Ahmed Jafri , saghierjafri@urdumanzil.com , Urdu Manzil

    http://www.urdumanzil.com/2010/index.html

    ... ...

    We Overseas Pakistanis are also doing everything possible to help the flood relief activities in our Dear Country Pakistan.

    As an old Tehreek e Pakistan Karkun/Old Pakistan Independence Movement Worker,Old Member of Muslim Students Federation ,your Brother Saghier Ahmed Jafri had participated in Pakistan Movement under the Dynamic Leadership of our Great Leader Quaid e Azam Mohammed Ali Jinnah when hundreds and thousands of men,women,children sacrified their lives for Pakistan.

    I survived,was injured but continued struggling,raising slogans,leading young students rallies in support of Quaid's sincere,honest efforts to get British leave India and we want our beautiful country PAKISTAN.

    I was lucky to see our Great Leader Quaid e Azam Jinnah Sahib from close distance (Thanks to Dear Mehmood) and when he saw young and old age fans,supporters saying Salam and showing their love and raising slogans appreciating his wonderful leadership,guidance and for his demand for a beautiful country PAKISTAN for all of us,he said Salam and , I could see his old eyes seem to be shining with great HOPE/UMMEED , our Great Quaid e Azam Muhammed Ali Jinnah must be having that AFTER GETTING BEAUTIFUL and WONDERFUL COUNTRY PAKISTAN,the PAKISTANI NATION will work DAY and NIGHT honestly, sincerely to make the new country a REALLY DEVELOPED , WELL PROGRESSING PAKISTAN in shortest possible time.

    The reason of writing the above is that what happened after the Great Quaid passed away in 1948 ? It is known to you , to me and even to the young Pakistani boys and girls.

    In 1962,I was among the first few Engineers who were taken from other project sites to work for long hours on very important Mangla Dam project.

    After Mangla and Tarbela Dams WHY politicians and others did not make best use of the dedicated services of experienced Power and water engineers and other technical experts like your brother Saghier Jafri so as to ensure availability of enough electricity and water for the present generation of that time as well as for the future generations.Shair e Mashreq Allama Dr. Muhammed Iqbal ka Watan e Aziz kai lieay khwab aur Quaid e Azam Muhammed Ali Jinnah ki koshshain/ struggles tehreek e Pakistan kai karkunoon aur sub ki azeem qurbanioon ko kiya hum itni juldi bhool gaiey keh Watan ki taraqqi kai liey woh sub kuch nahein kiya jo keh Quaid e Azam ki ummeedoon sai chamakti aankhai dekh rahi theen ? The Quaid's shining eyes had definite HOPE that , like many other Countries in this Region,we will work day and night,construct many dams,hydro electric power stations generating electricity at very low cost,essntial dams,power generation units,power transmission and distrbution lines,load despatch centres,sub stations, more canals for proper water distribution and more water lines for proper transmission/supply of water for agriculture,industrial and domestic purposes and sufficient electricity available all the time for all the indutrial,domestic, commercial and other needs.

    We must catch all those who were responsible for no development in this country AND IF ??? PAKISTAN HAS TO PROGRESS/DEVELOP LIKE CHINA,BANGLADESH,JAPAN etc. then , CAN OUR PARLIAMENT/POLITICIANS ETC. PASS A BILL/PRACTICAL TYPE BILL for 'NO',I say ""NO"" HOLIDAYS / SEVEN DAYS A WEEK WORK DAILY FOR say 12 HOURS DAILY and BAN all POLITICAL and OTHER """""""CALLS""""""" for HARTALS,PHAYYA JAMS,STRIKES,BLOCKING ROADS, HIGHWAYS,PORTS,HOSPITALS,SCHOOLS,MILLS,FACTORIES,INDUSTRIAL UNITS,GHERAO, JALAOO,BURNING/DESTROYING PUBLIC PROPERTIES,BUSES,CARS, MOTOR CYCLES mostly belonging to poor or middle class people who are already having practically no money to buy anything.

    The PERMANENT BAN should either for unlimited period or for say 15 FIFTEEN YEARS IF PAKISTAN HAS TO ACHIEVE THE DESIRED PROGESS as per desires,dreams, wishes,hopes/ UMMED of our GREAT QUAID E AZAM MUHAMMED ALI JINNAH , the FOUNDER of PAKISTAN.Such Bill should be approved by Parliament or through referendum and should be agreed by all including the President,Prime Minister and Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of Pakistan and also by COAS Gen. Ashfaq Parvez Kayani.

    As an old Pakistan Movement Worker,Engineer,Poet,Writer,Journalist, Editor of World's Largest Urdu website Urdu Manzil http://www.urdumanzil.com and Organizer of Grand International Literary,Cultural Functions,your Brother Saghier Ahmed Jafri feels that after say 62 years,THERE IS STILL A POSSIBILITY to make PAKISTAN a REALLY WONDERFUL DEVELOPED COUNTRY within A FEW YEARS provided WE FORGET ALL KINDS of HARTALS,PHAYYA JAMS,STRIKES,SHOUTING AT EACH OTHER ON TV CHANNELS DOING PRACTICALLY , NOTHING FOR THE BETTERMENT, these are my personal views,suggestions etc.May be you,President,Prime Minister,Chief Justice,COAS have better ideas to make our beatiful country PAKISTAN progressing non-stop/all the time like China,Japan, Bangladesh etc.

    I would like to request all the poets,writers,journalists,all the professionals etc. to please write and IF, during say 62 years the Presidents,Prime Ministers,Ministers,Governors,Chief Ministers etc. ever did anything for the betterment,healthcare, shelters,appreciation of grand services, awards etc. for the old Tehreek e Pakistan Karkuns/Pakistan Movement Workers ???????
    Any REPLY ???????????????

    For over twenty years,as a Peace Activist I am always writing about Importance of Peace / PAKISTAN - INDIA RELATIONS and """Permanent Peace Immediately / Now """ by RESOLVING All the Pending Disputes such as KASHMIR and BAGLIHAR DAM , KISHAN GANGA DAM etc.I am always saying/pointing out/mentioning that , the World Disputes should be solved now as many countries are now Atomic Powers and therefore,it is not proper to keep such disputes pending in the UNO etc. for say sixty years or so.It is better to resolve now and arrange PERMANENT PEACE not TEMPORARY AMN ki ASHA.

    PEACE must be on PERMANENT BASIS as per old Peace Poetic Formula of your Brother Internationally well known Peace Activist Urdu poet,writer,journalist,engineer, author Saghier Ahmed Jafri (editor of World's Largest Urdu website Urdu Manzil : http://www.urdumanzil.com and , Organizer of Grand International Literary Functions, Seminars,Aalmi Mushaire,Sham e Afsana wa Ghazal Functions,Promotion of Urdu Functions/Programs.

    All those who really love peace and want to have real amn ki real asha/ummeed/hope for them and for their children and want to save this troubled world from any more war/warlike situations/any wars,destructions,safety for present and future generations may please write their expert views,opinions,suggestions to make this region and all the regions really peaceful.Please look at the faces of your children,politicians children,others children have a nice very very hot cup of tea and really burning long thick cigar if you smoke and then, write your honest viewS.

    IMPORTANT
    ......................

    For the last many years,I have dedicated myself for PERMANENT PEACE EVERYWHERE and for this purpose , I am ready to travel anywhere at my expences.I am always saying/asking what is the outcome of last say sixty years of peace conferences, travels to Agra,Lahore,Delhi,Islamabad,New York etc.Any PEACE/AMN ki Real Sachi Asha achieved by spending millions of dollars/rupees/takas ? WHY not try the grand peace services of your brother internationally active,well known Peace Activist.
