How can a state run by the Illiterate MNAs?

As per CIA world fact book in Pakistan

Literacy Definition: age 15 and over can read and write
Total population: 49.9%
Male: 63%
Female: 36% (2005 est.) [Last updated on 15 April, 2008]

Remember MNAs and MPAs are elected representatives of this literate population who can read and write. These MNAs and MPAs are part of the same society which want them to be literate but does not want to come up itself to face the challenge.

One of participant here said that most of our leaders in past (probably from 1865 to 1947) were not graduate. Dear every era has its own demands and competitiveness requirements. Issue is not that whether our elected representatives should have or should not have B.A degree but the real question is that what sort of education system we should have to make leaders. Making leaders …………….. Ah funny but yes now a days leaders are made in universities like in Howard University. When we demand such a leadership then we should stop and think do we have even a single institute of such caliber all over Pakistan. Surely not, if someone knows let me know. Our education system is so designed that it can not produce politicians of international stature and leaders who are all time great.

Now, one may ask how to overcome this problem. Simple (solution is simple but implementation is bit difficult not impossible) our youth which constitutes 14% of this learned population should come up to play its role in politics. It is good to discuss issues but it would be heroic to come up with solution and then its implementation. But I think the main problem of Pakistan is this non participation. Everyone knows what’s and where is problem and very few know how to systematically solve these problems but no one knows how…….?

We have spent 60 years in spotting problems and suggesting solutions. Now it is time to think that how can we play our role to bring change in our society by finding the solution of this problem of how to implement?

Make your expectation as low as possible from new government. If we can identify their incompetencies, then we should also be able to correct them or come up ourself to change the scene.Is there anyone on this forum..........................?
