The Difference Between GT Road & Motorway
Some people might think that difference between motorway and GT road is about road quality but it is more then that as i experienced a few days ago while travelling from Lahore to Islamabad.
It is the difference between Culture, Perception, Attitude and Governance. It shows how good governance can change positively the culture of a society. If you want to see the pakistani people at their best, go to Motorway. Discipline, Integrity, Service, Techonology, Efficiancy and Development all available at motorway.
Now come to GT road. (i returned via GT road) It is the typical pakistani behaviour and culture here, i.e FREE FOR ALL. Bribery, discourtsy, inefficiancy beside with uneven road and unfit vehicles and no rule of Law. The interesting thing is that people travelling on both the roads are same. Sometimes they travel on motorway and sometime on GT road but how suddenly they change when they enter the motorway is quite an interesting phenomenon.
It shows it is not difficult to bring change in society if we provide the necessary conditions and leadership. People travelling at motorway know they will not be spared if they violate any rule and so they are very careful. The same people while travelling on GT road know that nobody will ask them if they break all the traffic rules there so they are not careful there.
I wish we have a same governance level in society like motorway where nobody dare to challenge the LAW. The rule of Law can make us a different society where merit is upheld and people know the violator will be punished.
