Banana republic in the making?!!

Recently a PPP leader, Zafar Ali Shah was in news by alleging his party responsible for making the country 'Banana' Republic. Strict definition may be argued upon but indeed Pakistan is heading towards being tagged as a potential banana republic. Reasons are simple, the Prime minister of the country has time to officially campaign (shamelessly spending million on state money on campaigning, protocol in the name of party discipline) for a fake and fraudulent person for byelection but has no time to address the situation of flood prone Hunza, five months of internal devastation and its aggrieved people. He has ignored the people killed due to deasater and now continuously ignoring the plight of people of hunza and expected devastation of 16 villages due to floods.
Nevertheless equally shameful are the newly elected representatives (esp the speaker for his outrageous comments to Dawn News calling effected as 'unduly emotional' on the demands of local people for compensation and loss of land) who chose to hold trade and travel cultural shows but never raised a combined voice for their own people.
Owing to the deeds of the current government, manipulation of facts by relevant authorities I believe the effected shall have to build their lives on self help basis, the same basis which has driven the local communities to complete projects in the past. However the provision of land is responsibility of government and the dead soulless representatives should come out of their caves and help the people which is their responsibility ethically and constitutionally.

The effects of the devastation is given int he link below: http://www.dailytimes.com.pk/default.asp?page=2010%5C05%5C15%5Cstory_15-5-2010_pg3_5
