    49:51: India raised non-tariff barriers after Pulwama. In fact, India had accorded Pakistan MFN status for years, but Pakistan never reciprocated. She is telling all sorts of problems but lying with a straight face herself.
    These blatant lies with its own public and international audience is Pakistan's one of the biggest problems.

    The problem with people like Maleeha Lodhi etc is simple. They have been part of the establishment and therefore are responsible in part for Pakistan's present predicament. It's difficult to admit that they were wrong all their life. So all they do is mouth platitudes and cover up their mistakes. The solution they propose is to do more of the same, packaged differently. Brings to mind the saying of one definition of madness - to do the same thing repeatedly and expect different results.

    Pakistan has still not learnt their lessons. Their ruling elites still call Indian regime hostile when the World has recognised it to be peaceful country which believes in good of all humanity. Nothing can be done about a state which is bent upon self destruction. I really pity the people of Pakistan who have been fed with hatred towards India all these years so that these so called elites remain in power and loot Pakistan and this is despite the fact that several years or centuries back their ancestors were all perhaps followers of sanatam dharma.

      They will not learn their lesson because the Pakistani ruling elite is not answerable to the public. Their elections are always engineered. The rulers are only answerable to the Army chief and corp commanders. And all of them have parachutes ( sorry passports 😢) to jump to a rich Western country with their ill begotten wealth. And these parasites will khun chuso their country till nothing is left. The vast majority of the garib awam Jaye bhad mein. Country is in same situation as France before their revolution.

    Pakistani definition of Problem analysis :
    a) Never go near to the truth
    b) Never even talk about the root cause
    c) Deceive self and try to deceive the whole world.
    d) Throw in few buzz words and few catch phrases to sound professional and knowledgeable.
    e) Not even acknowledge the fundamentals of a problem.
    f) Some how rationalise every wrong policy and wrong methodology and recommend more of the same and the new solution.
    A year 10 student in India could do a better problem analysis and problem solving then a seasoned diplomat of this pure land.

    Saudi wants to rent Pakistan for their own food security. Also they want to push/outsource their environment degrading fossil fuels industries to Pakistan but ensure to extract the benefits from it. It will also tieback Pak to Saudi oil and permanently and perpetually get struck with high-priced oil delinking from market oriented pricing. Of course Saudis will be a lot more fairer than Chinese..they don't play dirty unlike China.
    The very SIFC is a short sighted approach. It's going to directly pit the resource rich regions in direct conflict with establishment unless a radical approach of inclusion and sharing of prosperity is adopted. But always your establishment cannot see beyond Punjab and a few key cities..

    Why should India want normal relation with Pakistan?
    Because normal means continution of terrorism, still hegemony of China in Pakistan and creation of nuisance in every international platform.
    So normalcy benefits only Pakistan.
    India has accepted Pakistan will always remain hostile towards India and are preparing according to that.
    We have decided to move on and engage with the broader world.
    There can be tactical arrangement between the two which benefits both. But on a broader sense I believe Indians have finally realised that Pakistan is a permanent hostile state (Pakistan will collapse without hostility towards India) so engage with the world keeping that in mind.

    Ms Lodhi was one of the early invitees to GHQ at the dawn of Musharraf's coup. An accomplished woman albeit with a suspect diplomatic pedigree, her stellar profile has not prevented her from persisting with non-committal responses to important questions on her own social media accounts and op-eds. This begs the question "is she still hopeful of yet another job as a reward for being politically correct?" An honourable thing would be to start speaking her mind without acting like one of Pavlov's salivating creatures anticipating a meagre reward. An interesting question for the next episode will be "What does she think of Hussain Haqqani?"
    P.S. I will vote for Maleeha Lodhi if she takes the moral high ground and sides with whatever/whoever she thinks is right.

    Pakistan's economic problems are symptoms of its geopolitical problems. Pakistanis will never prosper until they fight for independence from Pakistani Generals and the Anglo-$axons and switch sides in the Great Game.
    200 years ago 5,000 British soldiers along with 12,000 sepoys crossed the Indus River and entered Afghanistan and carried out regime change by overthrowing King Dost Khan of Afghanistan in an unprovoked act of aggression. The British Empire feared King Dost Khan may form diplomatic relations with the Czar of Russia to help Afghanistan restore its lost empire in the Indus valley. The Royal Grand Indus Army that owns, occupies and ru(i)ns Pakistan maintains Britain's imperial legacy and enforces British foreign policy in Afghanistan and Indus valley for a fistful of $$$.

    For someone with Ms. Lodhi's experience, intellect, and ring-side seat at any gathering of Pakistani (or even global!) elites, it is surprising that she played the diplomat. It's not that she is not insincere or that she lacks depth, Why then does not dig deep?! Why has she just talked at operational level and that which is obvious. Hearing her was like going through a news conf in which an envoy babbles for the optics of it. I'm sure she won't read this, but I fell for Uzair. (As someone said, he must have tried hard not to tear his hair... well, the brother has).
    While wading through the same old same old talking points of what ails Pakistan. The same superficialities, the same verbiage, the same thing about governance or the lack of continuity of it, the mentions of sleights from the east, the rubble on the west... Has she addressed stuff that is structural, that which is organic? She mentioned state a lot but hasn't addressed the fundamental problems, philosophical foundations, and that the elites have not settled on a cohesive, comprehensive position around which to rally the whole nation or even build a nation around. She has not even mentioned how fractured, even nascent, the very idea and formation is - how has the idea of Pakistan been cultivated, grown... before it can cherished?! It is dead on arrival and rotting now but she has no sight of it. What about the organic foundation of a perverse state run by the venn of interests amongst the army, judiciary, and maulvis. I was listening to a young man on a Lahore street (in TH-cam) who articulated this with such depth of insight and precision that I was astounded. Why couldn't Hon Lodhi articulate it?! She talks of all the dynamic (a word she dropped a lot) people - youth, innovators, entrepreneurs - but she does not address the education system - not just institutional or resource problems but the very organic foundation of it.
    In her mention of India, she talked of India's aggression and Modi's aggression and India's unwillingness to talk, her illegal annexation of Kashmir. Is that the truth? Even if she were talking about the present? Right when she was at the helm, things happened that should not and could not have been India's doing. She was already in the power and influence circuit when the TTP and the Taliban and the Mujahideen targeted Afghanistan and also India at another time. Nary a thought of that! Surely, she knows India's position (right or wrong, honest or duplicitous) on why they don't want to talk with Pakistan or them asking, "WHO do we talk with?". But she avoids that because she perhaps assumes that the audience will readily accept the India bogeyman. (I doubt it because, imo, the audience of young, exposed, thinking Pakistanis that are Uzair's audience can catch this in a whiff). Why such disingenuous dribble then?
    Personally, I suspect it's because the older Pakistani elites particularly those that have skin in the game cannot come clean in public. There are several Pakistani intellectuals with the depth and integrity but they are neither popular nor have the megaphone. (It's sad to see the Hoodbhoys, Muzammil Shahs... being discounted and even hounded). Or perhaps they don't have the sophistication or nous of Ms. Lodhi. (I'm not for a second saying Uzair is purposely not bringing them in. He is indeed!). There are some elites that are plain duplicitous and misdirected. Some are just cognizant but just liars; they also lie to themselves! And this is the malaise of Pakistan - the lying to oneself. When they are able to get over this, it will be a different country with all its potential unlocked. And the hyper-religiosity will be killed and the grip of the myopic maulvis and self-serving army will be eased.
    All that said, thanks to Uzair for bringing Ms. Lodhi on. We need to hear opinions from all directions and sections. I personally am open to some army and maulvi hefts coming to explain their positions. Hold them to it! And I believe that Uzair can do a wonderful job. He has a quiet but articulate persence and he is respectful as probing. He's able to extract thoughts from his guests and let's them talk. I hope this does not come off as flattery, it is not! When I listen to him, I'm reminded of another great interviewer I listen to often on NPR in the USA - Terri Gross. Keep on, Uzair, and thank you! [Please pardon this long and unedited ramble].

    Typical paki discourse. Lot of English with zero substance.
    1. Make peace with India and Taliban at ANY COST.
    2. Set up a national govt of honest people. No politician mullah military top brass feudal land owner allowed.
    3. Change the mindset of society from Islamic jehadi extremism to tolerant scientific progressive attitude.
    4. Make yourself food secure.
    5. Concentrate on industrial production to reduce import dependency.
    6. The govt should hv a minimum 10 yrs governance mandate.

      @praveenbasl7682 Sir, below are the typical counter answers to your suggestions by any pakistani,
      1. Make peace with India and Taliban at ANY COST.
      Indians are hindus, so we can not make any peace with them and peace with taliban, it is not in the hands of pakistan.
      2. Set up a national govt of honest people. No politician mullah military top brass feudal land owner allowed.
      Honesty and pakistani are antinomes.

      3. Change the mindset of society from Islamic jehadi extremism to tolerant scientific progressive attitude.
      Islamic extremism is the central pillar of pakistan. Hence, this point is ruled out.
      4. Make yourself food secure.
      Allah will feed us thru UAE, china and US.
      5. Concentrate on industrial production to reduce import dependency.
      There were no industries in riyasat-e-madina. So, this is also ruled out
      6. The govt should hv a minimum 10 yrs governance mandate.
      Pak has same government from the time of its creation (You know what I mean). Hence, this point itself is not valid

    For someone with Ms. Lodhi's experience, intellect, and ring-side seat at any gathering of Pakistani (or even global!) elites, it is surprising that she played the diplomat. It's not that she is not insincere or that she lacks depth, Why then does not dig deep?! Why has she just talked at operational level and that which is obvious. Hearing her was like going through a news conf in which an envoy babbles for the optics of it. I'm sure she won't read this, but I fell for Uzair. (As someone said, he must have tried hard not to tear his hair... well, the brother has).
    While wading through the same old same old talking points of what ails Pakistan. The same superficialities, the same verbiage, the same thing about governance or the lack of continuity of it, the mentions of sleights from the east, the rubble on the west... Has she addressed stuff that is structural, that which is organic? She mentioned state a lot but hasn't addressed the fundamental problems, philosophical foundations, and that the elites have not settled on a cohesive, comprehensive position around which to rally the whole nation or even build a nation around. She has not even mentioned how fractured, even nascent, the very idea and formation is - how has the idea of Pakistan been cultivated, grown... before it can cherished?! It is dead on arrival and rotting now but she has no sight of it. What about the organic foundation of a perverse state run by the venn of interests amongst the army, judiciary, and maulvis. I was listening to a young man on a Lahore street (in TH-cam) who articulated this with such depth of insight and precision that I was astounded. Why couldn't Hon Lodhi articulate it?!
