Democracy must be 'customised' for Pakistani climate and realities.

So what? Noonis are not gonna believe any proof anyway!
:lol: If there were proofs with him then any sane wouldn't have waited till a political stunt. He would have taken them to the court of law the day he would have gotten them. But of course Imran's example doesn't fit well in the parameters of sanity.
 
I hate musharraf for kargil and appreciate his work later for Pakistan.
But he is absolutely wrong when he said that.
The biggest problem in Pakistan has been the continuous meddling of the army in politics. So when ever you find a forces guy saying anything else except that we support the democracy, you guys should say thanks but no thanks.
Pakistan has had a customized democracy almost from the start, and has never been allowed to truly become democratic.
If the army is such a great administrator, why are no land reforms done in Pakistan? Why the public not free from the chaudhries and wadheras?

I disagree! We are already living under "customized democracy". This democracy suits corrupt politicians and people like musharaf who will come again through "deals" under this same customized democracy.

Pakistani people need true western democracy.

How can you customize democracy? If this is not customized democracy then what is?
 
Musharraf has made so many mistakes so many times that now people don't want to listen even the right things he says. He had a chance to correct things, to put Pakistan back on the right track, to empower people, but instead he gathered all sorts of same old suckers around him, who destroyed everything.
The national reconciliation ordinance was one of his greatest disaster in which he paved way for the corrupt leaches to return to power. He only did that to prolong his tenure in power which was very selfish of him. He was the guy who gave this vision Pakistan first, and its a shame that all that went in vain due to selfish personal interests.

General(r) Ashfaq Pervez Kiyani, the actual munafiq and backstabber was. He played the same role which was performed by General(r) Mirza Aslam Beg in case of Zia.

Why do you think that DG-ISI was specifically asked by BB to be present in N.R.O negotiations? She knew that he was going to be next COAS. Why was he the only one who didn't submit an affidavit against Iftikhar Chuadhry? I am sure that he also had some involvement in instigating Lal Masjid case.

Mush had done its own wrongs. The biggest one was Kiyani who played in the hands of international establishment to remove Mush. For protecting NRO-1, he got 2 terms of COAS. For NRO-2 known as May 2013 elections, he was expecting to get another term or some other post but he was of no more use or maybe property business was already booming under the umbrella of Malik Riaz and Zardari.

No such thing exists. Each of them have their distinct understanding of democracy. Musharraf as a statesman knows what he is talking about.

A vanilla democracy can't be applied anywhere. The form of democracy in UK is different from that in the US. It is slightly different in India and so on. There are similarities, true - there are traits that classify the form of Government as a democracy. But they are all customized to suit the custom needs. A rigid application of any formula is a recipe for disaster.

Musharaf got owned by the hardtalk anchor. Musharaf resorted to lying and denying simple facts. Sorry time for Musharaf is over. Grow up.
 
He is essentially saying that the western secular democracy wont work in Pakistan.
Yes, he is saying the same from day one he usurped the power. However, what did he do to change that or to tailor as per Pakistani climate and realities? He remained unchallenged for quite some time but did he utilize that time to make improvements? What he said or saying is nothing new, a majority of us already know about that but what did he do to change that? Nothing, instead awarded a clean chit to the criminal to come back to Pakistan and do what they have been doing all their life. I don't know if Musharraf deserves to be called a statesman for he was everything but a statesman.
