Democracy does not suit to a contry like Pakistan?
We are getting nothing positive, in this democratic era of Pakistan; it is quite obvious. Some times, the present scenario compels me to think weather the Musharraf regime was more better than Zerdari\'s; though there was little ban on freedom of media but there was no brutal killings of media persons; though there was war on terror but no violation of border lines. Does this means we were living in more secure and prestigious manners in a democratic era; is it true that democracy does not suits a third world country like Pakistan?????

I am fully convinced that democracy does not suit Pakistan in the current situation. The reasons are obvious;
We are a semi-tribal society(barring few big cities) where the votes are cast on the basis of baradari system and on the wish of sardar. Due to widespread illetracy, the voters have no sense of political issues and cant distinguish between right and wrong leadership. This situation is ideal for corrupt leaders to win the election and play with the destiny of the nation as it is happening now a days. The people who say worst democracy is better then best dictatorship lives in the fool"s paradise and does not know the ground realities. Malaysia and many other countries were able to develop themselves due to long lasting dictatorships that they had in the past. Even in Pakistan, the eras of dictators are still remembered by the people as the best time of Pakistan history when the country developed itself to some extent. And everybody knows what happened and happening during the time of democracy in Pakistan.

According to the simplest definition of democracy, present era is democratic one. As here is a government elected by people through elections and votes.

Dear Cherubic Ravian can you point out any era in the history of Pakistan as a true Democratic era?

May be the Bhutto\'s era at the beginning was truly democratic. The time when USA hated Pakistan the most!

Infact i do not know; I am quite new in the field of politics. The all i know about present government is, simply, the democratic, hugely corrupt and illiterate! and probably, former is the cause of later.

I totally agree with aariz, as most of the people are illiterate therefore this democracy thing didnt work out for us.... on the contrary if you see when so called dictatorship comes, things started getting better..why is that so? the answer is Educated people....the army man are somehow but i must say far more educated than the people we have in democratic regime... people in the current assembly have no authentication even of their Matriculation degrees...while in army illiterate people cant get any good position which in the era of Martial Law holds the offices.
so you can easily figure it out that what best suits us and why...
