WASHINGTON: With the weight of arguably Pakistan’s largest political party thrust upon his shoulders, Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) chairman Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari measures his every spoken word, mindful of the active voice recorder nearby. Wise of what may make headlines in the next day’s papers.

He has also taken to learning statecraft at an early age, where one is normally associated with the image of a carefree adolescent, brash, and heady in his decisions. Bhutto-Zardari though, has learnt from the people around him, those currently managing the state Pakistan. Deflecting criticisms is one of the basic tenets.

Read more of what Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari has to say in his exclusive interview to The Express Tribune in the Saturday, May 26, edition.

    Master Bilawal, what do you know about Pakistan and its people? Come to your senses and do some good in your life. Doing good does not mean becoming the PM of Pakistan and giving charity.
    The poor among the Sindh flood affectees are relying on outside help. Help them with your father’s wealth and get down to ‘hands-on-the-job’ by helping them becoming self-reliant. Forget politics now.

    Salams to a better Bilawal

    He knows a lot of things. he knows how to party; how to wine and dine; how to walk among his voters without even touching those low-life creatures. These days he’s learning how to climb up his dead mother’s soulders to become politically visible.

    ‘His’ Pakistan?? What does he have to do with Pakistan? Educated in UK brought up in Dubai only funded by people of Pakistan. He’s biting off more than he can chew at this time if you want my opinion

    PPP is NOT the largest political party of Pakistan. Secondly, if he has learnt so much, why does he keep that learning to himself. He should share that Learning to us to that it becomes easy for us to decide whether to vote for him or not.
