Another new year came under the democratic government of PPP in Pakistan. The previous one was very difficult for the govt as well as for the people with regards to changing political, social and economic trends and due to these events and occasions Pakistan always retain in the eyes of world.
Many changes and events occurred which were unforgettable in the history of Pakistan and remembered not only by Pakistanis but by whole world. Unbearable inflation, destructed economy, social immoralities, brutal Sialkot incident, severe drone attacks, harsh blasts, Dr. Aafias sentence, July-Aug flood and flood victims, WikiLeaks etc.
Moreover the complete failure of the government in order to maintain the law and order, to recognise the position of Pakistan in international world and to stabilize the national moral and values severely disappointed and disintegrated the people. Still then all the political parties and leaders including government and people hoped for stabilised and better situations in Pakistan in the year 2011 but the following year of 2011 washed all the hopes when it occurred with blowing and harsher incidents not only in Pakistan but all around the world.
The year 2011 came, celebrations done with best hope and now the first month of this New Year is going to be end but the events is harsher than the former one. The murder of the Governor of Punjab, severe economic situation, changing political trends and recently the Raymond Davis etc. But we cant let the deteriorating situation get the best of us. As The Egyptian people have proved that people with a positive outlook can change things for the better.
