Our bad luck

The government has entirely failed on the economic front; they seem to have no expertise to run this difficult country. The common citizen has been put on a ventilator and survival is very difficult. All the election slogans have vanished in the air. Inflation and taxes have touched new heights. In all this, how will the people be able to make both ends meet? The opposition has been implicated in so many cases that they have failed to lead those who voted for them. Our assemblies are almost dysfunctional. Naya Pakistan has made the life of a common person very miserable. Should we now say that there is no one to run the country efficiently and it seems evident that sooner or later the system will collapse? We have done a lot of experimentation since Independence but we have failed to inculcate true leaders to lead this country. We are all very fond of Mahathir but we could not produce one. Hard luck.
