Pakistan is currently facing significant challenges, including economic difficulties, inflation, political unrest, and terrorist attacks. These issues are testing our wisdom, patience, and resilience.
To address these serious challenges and counter the conspiracies of rival countries, we must demonstrate maturity, wisdom, and sensibility as citizens. Here are some key points to consider:
- Avoid Spreading False Information: Do not propagate false or unauthentic news and views.
- Promote Unity: Refrain from expressing hatred towards Pakistan and its state organizations.
- Express Grievances Respectfully: Share your grievances in a moderate, humble, and formal manner.
- Protect Public and Private Property: Do not damage state, public, or private property during protests or strikes.
- Evaluate the Impact of Strikes: Consider whether strikes and sit-ins will be beneficial or will cost the nation billions.
- Pakistan is a loving and accommodating nation, and we must maintain this status. Avoid political, religious, and sectarian conflicts and rifts.
If you notice any suspicious activity or individuals in your area who are unknown to locals, please report them to the relevant authorities. It is the responsibility of the state and agencies to provide safe channels for citizens to share intelligence information.
Let us love, promote, and prosper Pakistan. Do not be discouraged; instead, find ways to solve problems.
Never allow anyone to promote hatred towards Pakistan and its state organizations. While there may be black sheep among us, we must not let our disdain for them harm Pakistan. Rival agencies are promoting hatred towards Pakistan and its organizations, but we should not support or act as agents for them. The slogan “Pakistan First” must be promoted at all levels. Scholars, teachers, universities, schools, colleges, parents, and the media must reflect patriotism and instruct others to do the same. As Pakistani citizens, we have strong ties to different sects, political viewpoints, clans, tribes, or provincial attachments, but everything should revolve around Pakistan.
Pakistan should be the nucleus of all our affiliations. Let us not weaken ourselves, others, the state, or the country through grievances, conflicts, and differences. The state should promote negotiations with discontented Pakistanis and parties, along with other options.
Mainstream political and religious groups should initiate “Pakistan First” marches and rallies. The state and well-off individuals should work to eliminate hunger, unemployment, and injustice in the country. Every Pakistani has the right to food, a good job, and the ability to feed their family in a respectable manner.
A think tank should be established by the state to promote patriotism and enhance love for the state and its organizations.
Remember, differences, conflicts, and unrest allow rivals to promote their agenda, and we cannot afford that. Love Pakistan and safeguard its interests. Pakistan First and top priority.
