It’s not so hard to understand our society. One should believe that our society is the best one of the world and we are really developing.
At least, we are trying our level best to compete with the world. But the problem with us seems to be the stereotyped ideologies, yellow journalism and negative propaganda by the fixed mentality mentors. It will be absolutely wrong to say that we are not progressing. Owing to the change in a mental attitude, our generation wants visible change in our societal, economical and political structures of Pakistan.
Nevertheless, this generation is doing its best to change the old perspective. We should never fall prey to the myth that we are so far behind. As the whole international scenario is somewhat changing, we are also following the change.
Media has played a vital role in awakening our society. Citizens are being given rights. Arab Spring protests and Occupy Wall Street are prominent examples of the reaction to rigid and unacceptable policies of these countries.
Though there are many problems in our society but we should be optimistic. They will be solved by us.
