An alien would stand aghast at the overwhelming misery that the Pakistani nation has to suffer today; the ruling PPP, however, feels absolutely satisfied at having honoured 80 percent of its election manifesto and there should be no doubt that the remaining 20 percent of the task would be completed in the period left for it to run the affairs of the state. The people, whose condition has progressively worsened to a degree where, according to a World Bank report, as many as 7,000 of them felt that there was no point in continuing to live and committed suicide during 2008. An impartial Pakistan watcher would be at a loss to figure out in what respect the standard of living of the common man whom the PPP claims to represent has improved with the implementation of 80 percent of its agenda.But the most striking thing that none of the different parties mentioned in the preceding paragraph would be able to ignore is the darkness enveloping the length and breadth of the country. The entire nation seems to be up in arms in protest at the prolonged electricity, water and gas loadshedding in the scorching heat of June and the inability of the government to avert the crisis, even though at least the power shortage, which has largely been responsible for water scarcity as well, had started rearing its head in an ugly form soon after it took over. Though in domestic use, one can store water when the taps flow and use it sparingly and adjust hours of cooking to accord with the gas supply, it is hard to bear the electricity outages when the heat is oppressive.Mian Shahbaz Sharif's strong protest at the discriminatory treatment of Punjab in the supply of power from the national grid has been of no avail; he pitched a tent at Minar-i-Pakistan and made it his camp office and tied a black ribbon around his arm to register his outrage but the situation has, instead, worsened. With the factories closing down, the economy in tatters and massive job cuts, the people's anger, especially across the entire province of Punjab, has busted. They are out on the street, vandalising public and private property, not sparing grid stations, burning tyres in the middle of the road and shouting angry slogans against the government. It is a wake-up for quickly getting about to set things right. Top priority should go to sparing Rs 20 billion for the power plants lying idle for want of furnace oil. Then should come planning, both short- and long-term, to finally rid the country of the scourge of shortages.

Undoubtedly, this religion (Din) of yours is a single religion (Din), and I am your Lord, so worship Me. And others split their affairs among themselves. All are to return to Us. Then whosoever works righteous deeds and be a believer, then his efforts are not disregarded and We are recording it. (Soorat Al-Anbia 21: Ayaat No: 92 to 94)

May 28, 2012inister for Foreign Affairs, Senator Bob Carr today Mannounced Australia would support additional
teachers and doctors for Palestinian refugees in the Middle East, with a $90 million funding agreement to be signed with
the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) in Canberra this afternoon. The agreement would provide the $90m in overseas aid to be distributed by UNRWA over five years, supporting education and medical care for Palestinian refugees in Jordan, Lebanon, Syria, the Gaza Strip and the West Bank. The agreement would be signed by Senator Carr and UNRWA Commissioner General Mr Filippo Grandi in Canberra today. "More than 1.4 million Palestinians live in recognised refugee camps in the Middle East, including those fleeing ongoing violence in Syria," Senator Carr said. "The total number of Palestinian refugees in the region could exceed five million. "Today's funding agreement means more Palestinian children will go to school, and more doctors will be supported to work in refugee camps and Palestinian communities. "That's good news on humanitarian grounds, and good news for Middle Eastern regional stability." Senator Carr said while Australia's first priority was always its own citizens, there was room for wealthy countries to also do their part in fighting poverty overseas. Since 2007, Australian aid has:
helped more than 470,000 Palestinian refugees attend school in the West Bank, Gaza, Lebanon, Syria and Jordan, including more than 200,000 girls; and
supported 4200 health workers to provide basic and emergency care to Palestinian refugees. UNRWA is a United Nations agency established by the UN General Assembly in 1949 to provide assistance and protection to registered Palestine refugees. Australia has provided over $119 million to UNRWA since 2000, to deliver education, health, housing and infrastructure services to Palestinian refugees.
