Talking at each other

Letter September 02, 2011
If we are not communicating with each other how can we communicate with the rest of the world?

ISLAMABAD: Most Pakistanis are talking at each other instead of talking to each other. This means that communication, which is a two-way interaction, is not taking place in this country. If we are not communicating with each other how can we communicate with the rest of the world? This is worrying because unless we begin to talk to each other and start listening to one another, extremism will only continue to grow.
