Thank God, we have finally found our saviour. When Mr Zardari's enemies call him Mr 10%, implying he made billions during Benazir's two terms, they are actually admitting that the country was doing well enough in those times for even the paltry 10% to run into such huge numbers. You might also recall that we had so much of surplus electricity in those days that stables of his horses were cooler than our operation theaters these days. -MS RAFIA MIRZA, Lahore Cantt., via e-mail, September 10.
