#5 Nuggets from the English (err..Paklish) press

A letter to the editor by one Mr Naqvi


MR FAIZ Gul Awan thinks that minorities are being discriminated against because the Constitution of Pakistan bars them from becoming head of the state (Dec 24). I think it is not discriminatory.

The Muslim and Jewish communities in the US are strong minorities but none of their members can aspire to become president of that country. Their constitution requires the aspirant to be a Christian just as Pakistan’s Constitution demands the aspirant to be a Muslim. That’s the way it is, Mr Awan.

Admittedly, a member of a minority could have become the president only if the country was secular, like India. Secularism has nothing to do with religion, nor is it against it. It only separates politics and diplomacy from religion for better governance.

and an article from the earthquake zone..

FROM OUR CORRESPONDENT
MULTAN - Secretary General Pakistan Islamic Medical Association, Dr Ch Zafar Iqbal has said the residents of Azad Kashmir have serious reservations about American field hospitals established in the quake-hit areas and they suspected that the US had set up its army camps under the shield of hospitals.
Talking to The Nation/Nawa-i-Waqt after his return from quake-hit areas here Saturday, he said the Americans had established hospitals under the name of MASH while they had also set up torture camps during Vietnam war under the same name. He said the people of the area suspected that the US government had set up these camps to launch an operation against Mujahidin.
He said that four thousand civilian and army personnel had been deputed on security of one thousand Americans. “There is no use in keeping Americans in Muzaffarabad as their security is so tight that no patient can approach them,” he maintained.
