  1. Prompt thinking and efficient decision making will be the key to take Pakistan out of the doldrums. The judicial system of Pakistan has asserted itself to the benefit of the country and so have the defence services, mainly Pakistan Army. It is the turn of the politicians to show that they have what it takes to make this country truly great.This will happen if the politician in Pakistan first develop a respect for the law and then a courage to punish those in their ranks who break it.
