Change from within

 The people of Pakistan are waiting for a ‘Messiah’; a leader who will save the country from falling into the abyss what they don’t understand is that the problem lies in all of us. The main problem is that everyone is corrupt on all levels. Corruption and bribes are common, if anyone wants to get any work done they look for shortcuts and the easy way out. If anyone wants a license, a passport or legal documents made they would rather bribe an official, than actually try to go the legal way.If we really want change, we have to change ourselves and our mindset, and then we can change our society. Just electing an honest leader will not bring any change, if we are corrupt ourselves. Indeed, “Allah will not change the condition of a people until they change what is in themselves”. [Al Quran 13:11] MUHAMMAD ARSAL ASIF, Karachi, May 30.
