Porting from the old forum:
This thread is not about the military. This thread is about the lifeline of society. I am writing these lines based on my observations, as well as on my discussions with many individuals.
Have you ever wondered why some people of Pakistan do corruption and why they are always cursing Pakistan, but never look out for ground realities? In this thread, I will put some very important points for making Pakistan a great country, again.
1) The medical policy
In Pakistan, most of the people live under continuous fear of having some medical issue. Because standard medical facilities are very costly for common people. Although private sector and govt pays the medical allowances, and bear the costs of treatments, but what about those people who are working with Seths and mid level businessmen? or the daily wager? And what about those, who are fired recently, and suddenly, ones father gets a heart attack, or little son falls from the roof? So here must come a comprehensive medical policy, for all.
Solution: Each employed person should pay two parts of medical fees to the medical insurance companies(which in turn also pay tax to govt). One part will the employer pay, and other part will be paid by employee. Insurance companies will collect these fees directly from employer. In turn, a man, his parents, wife, and his children will be medically insured. He doesn't have to save extra money for any eventuality.
For businessmen and daily wager, Govt needs to negotiate with insurance companies to give individual package, so that these people are also enjoying their residence in Pakistan. This is easy, btw.
2) What if your employer fires you?
Solution: That's the second biggest reason, why people do corruption: Just to save their future. In this case, govt will insure every person who is employed in Pakistan(national or foreigner).
For doing this, govt will collect small amount as insurance each month from every employee, and after working for at least 2 years, if someone looses his job, then he/she can apply for unemployment benefits for next two years. In that way, everyone feels little more secured, and tends to do less corruption.
3) What if you don't have money to pay to your employees(for businessmen)?
Solution: If your company was paying taxes and govt exactly knows what were your ins/outs, then govt will compensate you with the percentage of your declared amount, and will pay your employees for a fixed duration, during which you will take your momentum back. So a slight bump in the road should not be the end of your journey.
4) You are unemployed, and your children can't study.
This is the biggest reason why People do corruption in Pakistan. People don't send their children to govt institutions, because these institutions are not functioning properly. So here are three recommendations to get things work:
Solution:
a) Make Education as fundamental focus of governments attention, and get education system out of the hold of political people. Same education system(caliber wise, and in different local languages) for all. Central education system, that is translating new research in Urdu and local languages as well.
b) Abolish quota from Education system. For every 1000 children in Pakistan, there should be a higher secondary school. Induct people of highest competency and pay them above average. Make it free, for every human being living on the soil of Pakistan, national or foreigner.
c) For every student going to school or college, or University, first three children will receive money from govt. Every student going to School will also be medically insured, automatically. For every student going to any school, college or university, all travelling costs, in public and private conveyance, national or international, will become half, automatically. To insure valid studentship, a tight control should be placed on data regarding students, updated regularly.
5) You paid taxes whole of your life, but you were working with private sector?
Solution: That's another reason why people run away from Pakistan. In Pakistan, there is no concept for pension for people, who were running their businesses or the people who were working for private sector. They basically exists only to pay, not to get paid.
State of Pakistan must insure these people a fixed amount(based on their contribution throughout their lives) as pension. This will boost their confidence in system of Pakistan, and people will try to establish their businesses here, rather than in Canada.
6) You died while serving your country.
Any person, who dies on duty gives the best to his nation. But after that, his widow and Children struggle to live.
Solution: It is suggested that in this case, the widow and Children should keep getting paid as usual. Till the eldest two graduated and started giving taxes to govt. If the person was unmarried, then the parents would continue to get paid for next 20 years. If a person was insured for unemployment with govt, and dies of natural causes, let's say, a heart attack, then still his children will continue to receive money, till they become self-sufficient
I wanted to write much more. But let's see what you guys have to say about the points so far.
Edit 1:
No assurances no brain gain.
Most of the guys, who are considered as brains of societies go to western countries because of two simple incentives. 1) everyone who pays tax, will get pension, 2) everyone who pays tax will get an assurance from govt that if she/he looses his/her job due to employers layoff, then she/he will get a sustainace allowance till she/he gets a new job.
Does Pakistan gives any such assurance? All paid tax just vanishes in thin air. Specially the business guys don't get anything in return.
Edit 2:
Let's establish a nation wide police network
At the moment, police in Pakistan works under provinces. CM and local ghundas get away with every small and large sin and crime because local police can't handle pressure from provincial govt and their thugs.
My suggestion is to take out police from all provinces and make a central police and law enforcement agency. Another suggestion is to dismental special branch and combine IB and police to form this new department.
By this, at least small local crimes will start getting addressed. Let's call it Pak Police.
Similarly, local government system should be reintroduce, trust me, this will help people.

Medical Sciences Universities and Graveyards Management
Coming years will be the years of Biological warfare years. This fact has two implications:
1) Trained medical staff in large number :
Currently we have very few Medical sciences universities in Pakistan. All they teach their students is general medicine, surgery and Dentistry. That's it. And that too in very small number.
Are our doctors trained for handling things related to biological warfare? In current pandemic, a large number of doctors died in the initial phase of pandemic.
There is dire need to increase the medical universities (and overall funding for medical science) in Pakistan. Courses related to biological war fare and the handling of the consequent situation. Doctors working conditions should be made better (most of the doctors die of heart failures in Pakistan). Most of the people who dislike medical field due to two basic reasons: 1) There are very few medical universities in Pakistan (students don't get admissions) 2) Doctor don't get job.
So the doctors should also be taught for setting-up their own clinic (in case they don't get any job). Similarly, each doctor should learn at least one foreign language (in addition to English).
But people might die anyway!!
2) Graveyard Management
Currently, the graveyard management is totally in the hands of common people in Pakistan, who do not have any sense of biological warfare. Corona is not that contagious, but in future, some country might also invent another virus, that might be contagious even after patients die.
So we have two problems at the moment
1) Graveyard space management 2) Dead body disposal
People might die in the number of thousands(may be millions), and Allah forbid, if we didn't manage things properly, there will be dead bodies lying on the streets. Its time that we legislate graveyards management and start proper disposal of bodies on industrial scale. A single burial may be charged Rs. 5000. This will also produce revenue for the govt, as well as prepare us for future. The staff in each graveyard should be trained to treat bodies properly. Similarly, private organizations should be launched, who have proper knowledge to handle dead bodies(washing and packaging of dead bodies).
Similarly, each grave should be assigned for each body for 10 years, and after that the bodies should be thrown in a big wells, which should be filled with soil, when filled half with bones.
These things are dirty, I know, but very very necessary.

Making Pakistan a Nation:
The people of Pakistan are as diverse as they can be. From one side we have mongoloid looking Changezis. On another side, we have African-looking Makranis. At one corner of Pakistan, we have Indian-looking Sindhis, and on the other side, we have central Asian-looking Punjabis. On one side we have Caucasian Pashtoons and on another side we Irani looking Balochs.
What makes us one, Islam? Until now this has worked, though with a lot of flows. Everyone doesn't buy this ummah theory and ultimately happens what happened with the people of Balochistan and the people of Karachi.
In these times, diversity has become a vulnerability. This diversity has killed many national-level causes before they were even born. For example, A dam in KPK becomes Sindhi National cause. People fighting for the rights of Balochistan become Naraz Balochs. PTI wins from all parts of Pakistan, even from Karachi, but Sindhi only votes Bhutto (because Sindhi is afraid and Sindhi is right in thinking that). Siraiki of Pakistan become state-less and neither Sindh nor Punjab accept them as equal citizens. And much more like that.
Some people don't think beyond their constituency. They never thought.
The solution is United people, one language, and one system.
The provinces should be divided on the managerial basis such that every province is fully capable of handling every small detail about the people and nature under it. All people have to do is to learn Urdu, and every official issue should be understandable for them, right from education to court issues. Management procedures should be similar through out Pakistan so that the Peoples movement from one part to another part is as easy as it can be.
If we really want to live as a powerful and independent nation then we must have our own language(which we already have), our technology base should be independent
(which we can do after translating knowledge into our language and transforming our industry through easily available knowledge in our own language),
and our financial issues should also be independent of world powers
(when our language will be rich and when our industry will be in our control, then these international thugs will not be able to much against us).
I am already foreseeing a department that will translate knowledge in Urdu and will promote Urdu throughout the world. I suggest the name as:
غالب خانہءِ فیضِ اقبال
Or غالب خانہءِ فیض و اقبال
The pride in our language, justice, and work on Islamic guidance will make us great, yet again.
Pakistan must preserve the rights of every citizen and the biggest rights are copyrights and liberty of doing business.
Edit 6:
All leaves, including 14th August, 23 March, 25th December should be removed.
Instead, people should be given an extra leave with weekend per quarter. That is 3 days leaves( one given holiday + 2 weekend days). So that will make Friday+Saturday+Sunday
That will be refreshing for the people. Aashora and 12 rabi ul leaves can be retained.
