Jun25-2009--In a move which shows teh extremely sindhi nature of teh current regime a water distribution meeting(actually the job of IRSA) was held at bilawal house without any real punjab participation which apparently restricted water to teh punjab...most water accords apart from teh first one have been caused by sindh complaints of doing this and that...Tarbela in teh seventies used to fill up by Jun15 and the excessive withdrawals for sindh many say are teh cause of water problems and reduced electricity generation which is more important than agricultural produce...if the zardari regime wants to make a change for teh better than they should allow tarbela to fill early...

Jun25-2009--some jokers suggest that teh 1973 constitution which survives because nothing that replaces it will be successful either as everyone has their own views about teh constitution in various areas... many suggest that since all governments recent and past do/did whatever they wanted whatever teh laws and constitution..one prominent lawyer and people in teh army thought that coups were legal and that army chiefs had teh constitutional right to takeover or become president...the SC even allowed one coup plotter to rule for three years...others views change with teh situation they are personally in...a shampoo might not be enough for a bald head many say...their are too many amendments that make one think that precedents are better than a constitution..what difference does it make if teh president or teh prime minister has teh power to dismiss parliament since both are not answerable to the people...the parliament too should not have teh right to transgress its authority and approve things that were illegal under teh law such as coups and martial laws...many suggest a major change that secessionist, rebellious or anti country groups and parties be banned immediately...why allow the propagation of anti state politics...others also suggest taht the government be bound with teh overall good of teh people and not the policies of foriegn countries or institutions...many also suggest that teh constitution is so damaged that various groups use it for changing priorities and helping out their personal provinces for example what right has zardari to hold meetings in sindh when he never has held even one in punjab or nwfp......might be the primeminister and president should have four wives from four provinces as in canada...the primeminister also rushes off to his area and finds things in lahore not available to him in islamabad...although many doubts exist as to what they are...others suggest that it might be time for another constituent assembly as parliament is not really authorized to rewrite teh constitution...others suggest that teh SC be given teh right to overthrow bad constitutional changes...as far as financial distribution is concerned many donot accept teh sindh views as it has done quite well and wherever there are more people there are more cities and more problems so population should be the major divider for fiinances ..however whenever or wherever there is a need teh federal governments should provide funds or reappropriate as teh federal government does not develop on a population basis...technical help should be freely provided by all governments to each other and parliament can always be asked for special development resources...in effect if government does not function for the betterment of teh people nothing will matter

Jun25-2009---SC gives a correct decision at last..G-6 quarter squatters tobe evicted...turn it into a park many say...zardari regime looking for free expensive places to give to its near and dear ones in islamabad...dont clutter islamabad many say...the supposed zardari owned lakeview motel to become a sheraton and be given possession of teh islamabad golf course or new adjacent land from teh shakarparian green forest......such things can only achieved by teh high or mighty or bahria..or a CDA chief..?
