Musharraf’s party launched in Sindh

Express June 08, 2010

KARACHI: All Pakistan Muslim League (APML), the political party formed by former president Pervez Musharraf, launched its Sindh chapter at the Karachi Press Club on Tuesday.

“We have tapped into trade unions, student organisations and political figures who are soon going to join us,” said Barrister Muhammad Ali Saif while addressing a press conference. However, he did not name any of these organisations or people.

Saif was accompanied by Major General (retired) Rashid Qureshi, the former DG Inter-Services Public Relations and spokesperson for Musharraf, as well as a few retired bureaucrats. “We don’t have to work hard to convince people; they are approaching us in large numbers to become members,” claimed Saif.

He added that Musharraf’s popularity was increasing in the West and many heads of state lauded his role and ideology. “I receive letters from Indian journalists who admit that Musharraf had a persona and that he outsmarted the media in the country that was considered an enemy,” said Qureshi.

To a question regarding Musharraf’s alleged involvement in Benazir Bhutto’s assassination, Qureshi said that the present government is not doing anything to probe the case. “Nobody dared take Musharraf’s name and he was not responsible,” he added.

To questions about the Lal Masjid operation and violation of the Constitution, Saif said that this was not the right time and forum to talk about these issues. As for funding, he said they believe that only Allah and the people of the country can help them and that they have not received any foreign funding. When asked about when Musharraf would return to Pakistan, Qureshi said that he could not give the exact dates but that he is likely to return just before the next general elections.

In response to a question regarding how they planned to gather support from the general public when Musharraf’s following is only on Facebook, Saif said they would contact the general public as well to maintain a balance.

ahsan mahmood | 14 years ago | Reply Mr Pervez Musharaf is the only leader who has saved the country in many troubles and always spoke bluntly on any forum. Pakistan became more stronger where every person was earning with respect and had the capacity to sustain his family. Musharaf has brought good things and mostly people admit it. He has a bright future in Pakistani Politics and can handle the situation in better way and can put the doomed economy back on track. All things can,t be discussed openly as its impact can derail the process but unfortunately so called intellectuals only view him for few steps and some times I wonder why people do not talk facts? For them things are different and their comments leave strong and adverse print on the minds of Nation. Long Live Pakistan and poor people of Pakistan who are desperately waiting for a leader not the one who are non existent in the time of crises and busy in using Govt Funds for personal gains. (Facts can be verified on ground in all the flood hit areas where food and relief goods are used as a tool to keep people loyal to them.) May Allah bless Musharaf and Help him to face the crises and lead us out of uncertainty.

Niaz Hussain Channa | 14 years ago | Reply Gen (ret) Pervaiz Musharaf is the man having vision and implementation (both success factors). he is no doubt alearned man. he must come but a few steps like Bugti case, Lal Msjid, Justice Ch: case etc should not be repeated.these were the biggest mistakes done.

Shahbaz | 14 years ago | Reply Now its getting clear that the policy adopted by General Pervez musharraf against the terrorists and extremists was correct but unfortunately our so called politician and selfish media anchors were opposing that policy. These people are responsible for the law and order problems pakistan is facing now a days because when the army and the law enforcement agencies were fighting against these enemies of Pakistan these people were opposing and were defending these terrorists. Now if we have to save Pakistan we have to bring Pervez Musharraf back so that he can deal with these enemies of Pakistan.

Ali Hamza | 14 years ago | Reply GEo Musharraf..... the whole nation is looking forward for a leader who truely deserves to be called a leader.....waiting for you to take the office in Pakistan..... Long live Musharraf Long live Pakistan

Saeeduddin | 14 years ago | Reply Why people of Pakistan are retrying and have faith in already repeatedly tried failed politicians is a question to be carefully analysed and rectified. To me it is only because the nation is divided in sects and bradaries and they have failed to be united as a nation. To me Pervez Musharraf is a leader who has the capacility to take nation to success. The need of the hour is to keep an eye over currupt vested interest enemies of Pakistan, who whenever Pakistan achived a point to jump for accellerated development, tried to destroy the system and take country back. These vested interest enemies then try to loot and have no interest to make this country strongest. Let's give Pervez Musharraf another chance to set things right in this country. Let so called issues and allegations be kept aside and the whole nation be united under APML. Peoples are joining day by day for this noble task. Only on social site Facebook uptil now Pervez Musharraf has about two lac and fifteen thousand literate fans and his supporters are going to creatE miracle to mobilise nation for a truthful revolution in the interest & betterment of our beloved country Pakistan.This support in not in the air, but on the beses of skyhigh performance of Pervez Musharraf's last good governance. All facts and figures are showing positive trend in this respect. All the best wishes for our great leader Pervez Musharraf.

Malik Tabeer | 14 years ago | Reply Sceptic u said all my word, The day Ex- President left Pakistan, was the worst day of my life and I had to take sleeping pills to overcome my depression. I still cant forget the images of his farewell guard of honour presented to him by the three services . I sincerely wish the Musharraf the best in life and politics alike ! May Allah bless Pakistan and the Ex- President . Ameen.

SCEPTIC | 14 years ago | Reply I am a great fan of President Musharraf, not overlooking some of his minor mistakes and follies, that he had committed during his presidency. I believe that the ex- COAS can definitely pick up some votes in Urdu Speaking areas of Sindh and Punjab . However I don't want to sound ethnic or narrow minded regarding the Presidents future in national politics ; but the fact of the matter remains that in Pakistan the pattern of voting across regions is heavily influenced by languages and bradari system. Hence it will be a bit difficult for Musharraf and his party to initially win votes all over the nation. The day Ex- President left Pakistan, was the worst day of my life and I had to take sleeping pills to overcome my depression. I still cant forget the images of his farewell guard of honour presented to him by the three services . I sincerely wish the Musharraf the best in life and politics alike ! May Allah bless Pakistan and the Ex- President . Ameen.

Mr.Musharaf Pakistan intensly need sagacious leadership, you are only the personality which brings forth Pakistan to enlighten moderation.

Tehmina Pervaiz | 14 years ago | Reply Majority of the citizens of our beloved country are unfortunately corrupt themselves and deserve corrupt leaders that won the elections and then stole all the money. Some made big banglows in Raiwand and in Park Lane. Others fed jam to their horses. Our nation doesn't deserve an honest and capable leader like General (Retired) Pervaiz Musharraf. In Quran Allah says, jab koee qaum gumrah ho jatee hai to hum us per zaalim hukumraan musallat kar daite hain aur phir woh qaum tabah o barbaad ho jatee hai. This is what is happening to our country.

Nadeem Ahmed Meo | 14 years ago | Reply Sir, we all of pakistanis are awaiting for positive change in pakistani politics please come to pakistan and solve the problems of pakistani peoples and kick out the any currupt politition from the Pakistan this the voice of all pakistani young and honest people thanks & regards.

We have that strong man in Pervez Musharraf. He is not just my hope. He represents hope of all those to whom our country is as dear as our mother

Insaan | 14 years ago | Reply Welcome APML - just don't get people from the Chaudhary, Sharif, Bhutto, Zardari, Gillani or Leghari families in your party even if they offer to win you seats and form a coalition. Spend some of that money you have like Meg Whitman and Carli Fiorina in the California elections and get yourself elected. Maybe take that sentimental old fool Imran Khan with you and give him the Foreign Minister's post. If you form a coalition BEFORE you contest elections and get yourself a party that is made of people worth voting for, you can sweep the elections. For God's sake, hire a good PR firm, a great ad agency, some excellent speech writers, and create a strategy that WILL win you the election. Do it now. Don't just rely on the jatts, pirs, and vaderas to get you the votes. You can be smart about it, give your party ticket to hardworking, honest and experienced people, and you can raise money to create an election campaign that will blow away every mullah and feudal lord's mind because they cannot THINK! They only know how to beg and bargain; they are corrupt; they are selfish; and they will only end up weakening your image. You've done it once yourself, don't do it again. You could have been chosen by God to come to this world to be the political saviour of a whole country, a whole nation, and millions of futures that are tied to it. Take this job seriously!!!

Gulzar Tahir | 14 years ago | Reply In a likely way - something is better than nothing and nothing is going good, so nothing must be compensated by something. Comments may be appealing or unappealing but truth remains that good governaces always lacked in our country - perhaps we can acheive the same if every citizen contribute care for same. It is a serious matter of thoughts. A new hope of drastic change is welcomed for the prosperity of Pakistan.

Mohammed Arif | 14 years ago | Reply On thursday 10.06.2010 first time I saw a representative from APML from a Pakistan Channel's talk show-along with some others from opponents parties (PML(N) and Jamat Islamai) I was pleased to see the represntation of APML by Chaudhry Safdar who spoke and answers the blames on PM. If it will continue I am sure the peoples of Pakistan will soon well aware of the facts which were twisted by our media. Mr. Chaudhry rightly challenged Mr. Farooq and JI Rep to bring the names of peoples killed in Lal Masjid other than 193. It is fact that we did not see till todate any father, mother, brother/sister of any relative of such person on the media, even a picture. Political parties are misgiving the number of 2500 killed in Lal Masjid. It is Totally wrong. Briefly, in the programme the anchor requested the people for referendum by SMS whether Pervez Musharraf could be PM of Pakistan or not. At the end of programme the result was 40% people said yes and 60% against. In a very short period APML if gains 40%, i think is is a marvelous achievement and I am sure that the day is not far when mr. Musharraf will be another ZA Bhutto. MAY ALLAH BRING THAT DAY SOON.

Ghulam Raza | 14 years ago | Reply Dear Sir, We believe in Democracy but this system is applicable where there is at least 75% and above litracey rate. In our country, the reasons why Army intervene in Politics and the answer is that Elected People of Political parties fail to deliver necessities. They have lack of cooperation and understanding between policitical parties itself. When People of Pakistan are upset dueto bad doing of policitical parties, they strongly request the Army to intervene and save them from ill politics. IN PAKISTAN, WE NEED A POWERFUL LEADERSHIP JUST LIKE FIELD MARSHAL MOHAMMED AYUB KHAN AND GENERAL PERVEZ MUSHARAF TO HOLD THE PRESIDENT OFFICE BUT AS EUROPIAN COUNTRIES IMPOSED DEMOCRATIC SYSTEM IN PAKISTAN, WHEREAS, IN ARAB WORLDS THEY ARE ACCEPTING KINGDOM AND UNDEMOCRATIC GOVERNMENTS SINCE MANY A YEARS, WE PAKISTANI NEED SINCERE LEADERSHIP WHETHER IT IS FROM ARMED FORCES OR FROM CIVILIAN ONE, WHO CAN DELIVER PEACE, SECURITY, RESPECT, MERIT, JOBS, INDUSTRIALISATION, AGRICULTURE REFORMS, EDUCATION,AND HEALTH FACILITIES. Therefore, we want that General Sahib Come back and give his Political Agenda of reforms to this poor nation. I hope, people of Pakistan will support him Best Regards

Saeeduddin | 14 years ago | Reply This is good news for the nation of Pakistan that a great moderate leader Pervez Musharraf has decided to launch his party. Apart from issued being created by vested interest politicians, the past performance of Pervez Musharraf in broader sense was extraordinarily good in every field. At the present Pervez Musharraf is better choice for the welbeing of People and country of Pakistan. Past good governance of Pervez Musharraf is now favourite topic of people of Pakistan and they are looking for a change. More than two lac and eleven thousand fans on facebook is a clear indication of Pervez Musharraf popularity and people are going to accept and welcome his party in revolutionary manner for a better change.

Former President had a chance to change the fate of country, but he did nothing for the welfare of nation. In fact what we need are God fearing rulers, who feel themselves accountable to Allah and not to USA. Lets hope for the best and I am hopeful that, Pakistan after all these wrongs would emerge as a developed and prosperous nation. Inshallah.

The judiciary has proven it is only interested in politics and foolish stunts like banning Facebook, while the politicians have once again proven they are only good for narabaazi and corruption. Musharraf the best!.

Syed Mustafa Zaidi | 14 years ago | Reply I respect every one's opinion but my friends we should not indulge in mud slugging politics. One should look into the greater issues such as, which leader can built PAKISTAN'S & its PEOPLE'S image as peace loving nation among the international community. As far as internal issues are concerned, for those who have raised the electricity problem they can go to PM's F/B and find the verifiable statistics. As far as Lal Masjid is concerned I feel that PM did a half hearted job. If he had done whole heartedly no body would have the courage to do suicide bombing in punjab as it is being done now. He should have finished the FITNA once for all. If at all Lal Masjid was really an islamic institute than all other masjids or Imam masjid are not doing there job. The only thing is that majority of people are afraid of critising Lal Masjids management due to political reasons specially our politician. The Akbar Bugti was admittedly a muderer himself. He had not even left his own relative or tribes alone. My dear friends if we as a nation keep acting as hipocrats the end result of our nation will be no better then the present one even it will become more worse then the present. In the end I would like to say PM is not angel or a saint he is a just like us and belong to same culture & country, the only differance among other politicain & him is that during his tenure over all economical, political & law & order situation was far better then present or before him. How many of us has not done any mistakes or committed crime (whether a financial or otherwise )or do not speak truth. Had his so called mistake was given a chance I can assure you people that the wheel of progress would have taken momentum. Best of LUCK MR. Pervez Musharraf

Uzbekistan Visa | 14 years ago | Reply President Musharaf was the most popular Pakistani leader amongst the general Public of Uzbekistan. He during his tenure established good understanding with President Islam Karimov because of which Pakistanis citizens were issued Visa with out any problem Now Pakistan has again been put in to a RED list of countries which means that Citizens of Pakistan will have to follow a difficult system to get Uzbekistan Visa. Pakistanis may be surprised to know that still Musharaf is the most Popular Leader amongst the general Public of Uzbekistan. Many people ask us a question: How can an Islamic country can elect a Leader Like Zardari? How can a country like Pakistan elect a leader Like Snawaz Sharif?

Mahtab CRAZY | 14 years ago | Reply Among the others Mosharraf is a hope for the future of Pakistan, but its all depend upon his truthness and loyalness with the Home-land, and his wise approch, which he learnd in the Uniform tenure. Otherwise, he become a puppet and nothing more. We a general-public looking a person who revive us and guide us, we are ready to pay more as per previous with looking some kindness from our leader. Being a Pakistani -- i'm ready to act as positive for our homeland at any level. -- Mahtab CRAZY GSM: +96895664018

Aamir Shahnawaz | 14 years ago | Reply In my opinion what we need right now is someone who resides in no more than 80 yards house, with leaking ceiling, have hungry kids, deprived of electricity. unless and until we introduce such people in this gloomy country, we stand no chance.. Parliament's parking lot is the most expensive in the world.. do u think what we have as our nation leaders, could feel the pain of the slum? for God sakes, a media person asked a female Federal Minister about daal price and she said, i dont know as we grow it in our house. another one said, may its of Rs. 40/kg... i am a big supporter of u mr. musharaf.... reason is that 5 years ago, never did i thought of how my life will carry on but at the age of 30 now, i feel already old due to so much torment and pressure..

yelmaz | 14 years ago | Reply I LOVE MUSHARRAF !

Farigh | 14 years ago | Reply He had absolute power for 9 years. Was the country in better shape when he took over then when he left? He vowed to eliminate corruption and chose the corrupt most companions for himself. Yes he should come back and face the trial!

Syed A. Mateen | 14 years ago | Reply @ Pervez Musharraf: I live on the other planet. You need to call me on my satellite phone. @ Farhan: You are right: it is Ladder and not Laddar. Sorry for the typographical mistake. People at my planet pronounce it differently.

Noman Syed | 14 years ago | Reply WE NEED MUSHARRAF HE IS OUR HOPE WE ARE ALL WITH YOU SIR WE LOVE YOU

Ali Faisal Khan | 14 years ago | Reply Dear Sir, Like many others i too blame Pakistan that what we have received from this country, we are an educated person but still didnt get what we deserve, always blame country for electrcity / loadshading problems, pollution, robbery, corruption and many more. But when ever our country is in trouble like rest of the people i too gets ready even to die for the pride of my mother land. Though millions of people in this country exploited by the hands of landlords, government officials and the politicians but still Pakistan is the symbol by which we are recognised in the world. Every one blames but no one tries to rectify the mistake, if the previous govt have done any thing wrong then why should we do the same mistake. What ever people say about you i think you have the power, vision, sense and say to gather and lead the country on a proper track of prosparity. Sir, i am just an ordinary person of this country, but take my words, for me Pakistan is the first priority rest and next. I am always with you, because you have aim that, "its all about Pakistan that what we are, " and i followed you for the mission. Best regards, Ali Faisal Khan

Afzal Rahim | 14 years ago | Reply When would we get maturity in our politics? 30+ years dictatorship hasn't taught something to us. The same old "used bullets" are now again in the picture. Are we short of leaders?

SKY. | 14 years ago | Reply Dear Mr. President,ASA. I am supporting you and wish you good luck in your future venture. Pakistan First should be the MOTTO for all Pakistanis but not just for APML members. I have already filled out my application for your Party and am willing to do all the hard work in getting you elected to the P.M. position. I will be returning to Pakistan in the near future. May Allah give you strength and vision to be able to get us out of these hard time. God Bless. Wajahat Syed

Badshah Khan | 14 years ago | Reply Roomi, where was your constitution when Nawaz Sharief refused permission to a PIA plan carrying 198 odd humans on board including Chief of Army Staff to land in its own country. Did Nawaz not sign the death warrant of the passengers. Was that all constitutional.

Ejaz Ahmad | 14 years ago | Reply Has any one ever asked why how/General Sahib took the president's seat.Nobody has the gutts to question the Sharifs why his aircraft was not being allowed to land.Agreed that he had some bad team members who let him down,but no one talks about any success story.Sharifs want him hanged.This seems likeeither Zia ul haq or Bhutto. The task is not easy.Gas contract has been awarded to France with an excess vaue of ONE BILLION DOLLARS when Pakistan is again rushing towards insolvancy. Musharraf sahib welcome back.The nation needs you.We need you.Please help stop further drainage. May God shower His choicest blessings upon you.Ameen

Bashir Baltistani | 14 years ago | Reply I had been a big supporter of Mr.Perviaz Musharaf since was leading the country and still i am. But i am ambiguous at this point that if he was so much sincere with this country then why he left the country after the presidency and what were the circumstances which forced him to do as?Rather he should face the hurdles as Shaheed Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto did. But any how,I welcome him on joining Politics and wish him best of luck.My orisons are with him.

                 LONG LIVE MUSHARAF.............

Farhan | 14 years ago | Reply @ Syed. A Mateen ..did you mean ladder???

Farhan | 14 years ago | Reply He was the best president so far in this country ...He took Pakistan to the next level..Kept our heads high as Pakistanis... Any Pakistani who thinks Musharraf harmed this country in any way is an idiot or blind ... Hope to see him soon in Pakistan.

pir shiraz qadri | 14 years ago | Reply Dear sir,hundreds thosands pakistani very happy that u came in politics.Pakistan need u sir.we love u.God and holyaallah inshallah help u.

Abid Mohiuddin | 14 years ago | Reply Welcome Mr.President to be officially in in Pakistani Politics. We look forward to you be our leader soon, Insha Allah!!!!

Pervez Musharraf | 14 years ago | Reply Okay Mr Syed Mateen Sb, how do I contact you?

AWAIS KHAN | 14 years ago | Reply I believe that Mr.Musharaf is really extra ordinary man.He is the man of strong willpower & has the experience of leading.Throughout his ruling session, Pakistan had been progressing but because of this current session, our country is now suffering from corruption,high prices,shortfall of electricity,new taxes and very poor law and order condition and etc.We being Pakistani have suffered so much that know everybody is demanding to remove the current both political parties and bring once again President Musharaf to rule this suffering country.i am really pleased to come to know that All Pakistan Muslim League is going to be launch.So best wishes for this party.

roomi | 14 years ago | Reply 8 years of absolute power by Musharaf left this country on the verge of civil war with Fires raging in Balochistan waziristan and swat. He should come back and be tried and sentenced. Why is that people who break constition at will are allowed to leave with a guard of honour.

Zain Abbass | 14 years ago | Reply Article 6? On what basis?

Shahid | 14 years ago | Reply Article 6 first, please!

Syed A. Mateen | 14 years ago | Reply I can bring back Musharraf in power in Pakistan, provided he listen to it and act what I say. My services are available for any politician of Pakistan who wants to jump on the laddar.

A.S.Zara | 14 years ago | Reply Every Sane Pakistani will Welcome You Mr.Musharraf

Sohail Ahmed Khatri | 14 years ago | Reply Yeah! We need a leadership of Musharaf. If he feels the need to control everything, he would want to be the smartest guy in the room. Leadership is many things to many people and can be a challenge in itself. I am not sure if those pollies who have made media headlines for the wrong reasons have actually failed or succeeded in meeting our expectations!

Patriot | 14 years ago | Reply @ Sajjad, when will people like you get common sense. Pakistan had a power surplus of arouns 1000 MW (as asknowledged by a very anti-musharraf journalist Orya Maqbool Jan). Bhai jaan still pakistan has the capacity to product 19000 MW electricity but what we are producing?? Please understand the plan to deliberately put this country in darkness... Research your facts and then comment!! Anyway Welcome Back Musharraf sb....I hope this doesnt turn out to be Tehreek-e-Insaaf II

`umair | 14 years ago | Reply All I can say is: hahah. Enough said.

Zain Abbass | 14 years ago | Reply The Anti-Musharraf camp makes me laugh with their same old rhetoric that is in no way based in facts. Nothing but sensationalistic slogans! I don't know what Musharraf's future will be like in Pakistani politics. I do know though that things will change for the better in the country soon enough. I would like to hear a positive statement from these naysayers for once!

Nasir Ali Khan | 14 years ago | Reply We are still facing the blunders that he did in Baluchistan and in Lal masjid. I highly doubt that he will come back uptil Ch. Iftikhar is the CJ. He should be happy with his tabla and sarangi for the rest of his life in London.

K.W.Shariff | 14 years ago | Reply Way to go!! we are with you all the way General sb.

azad | 14 years ago | Reply welcome back Mr president

Aleem Dar | 14 years ago | Reply u r taking a bold step.But past mistakes should not be repeated.May Allah give u and ur companions courage and wisdom to stand firm.Best of Luck

shafique baloch advocate | 14 years ago | Reply hi president musharaf i love u and like so much . from shafique baloch advocate lahore .

naveed | 14 years ago | Reply Welcome back......Sir, i think he has the balls to admitt his mistakes and come back as a hero with his own party and win the coming elections in grand style....i have full confidence in his achievements both in past and in future, he has done some mistakes which is why he is out of the entire scene but he has always taken bold and brave steps for the nation, rather then parties who are just thinking of themselves and there overwelmed budgets and protocols. He will inshallah make an example that once a dictator now a future elected President of Pakistan. I ask all which was more better corrupted democrasy or a dictator thinking for the nation, note: not all dicators are the same and Mushraf is an example.

Arsalan | 14 years ago | Reply Congratulations to APML, I pray for Pervez Musharraf that he be the President of Islamic Republic of Pakistan. Proud Pakistani, a better a Pakistani !

Musleh Rezvi | 14 years ago | Reply We deserve the "Pied-Pipers" of the two dynasties who will throw money, win all elections and rule us until eternity. We as a nation do not deserve Pervez Musharraf. His period in power was the best thing which could have happened to Pakistan but he was kicked away to bring back the plunderers to stash away much more. We are a hopeless nation.

Shahzad Khan | 14 years ago | Reply Sole ray of hope for our country

Muhammad Tayyab | 14 years ago | Reply Sick of these power hunters. Nobody thinks he would be asked about, he would be held responsible on the day of judgement.

Muhammad Tayyab | 14 years ago | Reply Another................. Don't know why nobody has a mercy on this poor and shattered nation.

Tahir Siddique | 14 years ago | Reply Welcome in politics of pakistan

Tahir | 14 years ago | Reply It's a historical fact that dictators only remain in power untill they are in uniform. After they come out of that uniform they have no future. Even the socalled Q-League that musharraf made to stay in politicis is not supporting him and these jokers are saying he has a large following. Funny isnt it ? Long Live Pakistan and Musharrf should face the strong arm of justice !!!

sajjad | 14 years ago | Reply While he could do a lot in his last 10 year tenue, He spoke a lot to produce new power genenration plant, but we are till spending nights with out lights. We have gone 30 year back due to his bad deeds.

Hira Shah | 14 years ago | Reply i agree with haseeb cent percent.

talha | 14 years ago | Reply Welcome on board. But I request you to please do not indulge yourself in Pakistani politics. Whatever you are doing for Pakistan looks better then what you will do over here. We need new, young and educated people that can work according to the needs and demand of the people. Please promote Pakistan in international level and invite all your other peers who are still in Pakistani politics to join you and give opportunity to the young ones.

haseeb | 14 years ago | Reply another person will play dirty politics from london,if he thinks that he is mr. clean then why does not come to Pakistan back.why not to launch the party himself

Fasih Ali Khan | 14 years ago | Reply It's a beacon of Hope for Pakistan in this Darkest Age. I Welcome the move. Long Live Musharraf Long Live Pakistan

Syed Nadir El Edroos | 14 years ago | Reply I receive letters from Indian journalists who admit that Musharraf had a persona and that he outsmarted the media in the country that was considered an enemy Now if only his persona could feed people, generate electricity, spur growth, reduce crime, rid the nation of the Taliban, reduce inflation, make people pay their taxes!
