Zardari 12

Islamabad - President Asif Ali Zardari has said that there is a need of addressing population explosion as resource crunch, poverty, inadequate infrastructure and environmental threat are the biggest problems being faced by Pakistan
In his message on the occasion of World Population Day, the president said the need for indeed the demographic factor had been the single most important factor in the developmental agenda.0
He said that a balance had to be struck between the population growth and the available resources for sustainable development if quality service was to be provided to everyone especially in the remote and rural areas.
“I am pleased to learn that the 26th World Population Day this year is focusing on the availability of reproductive health services. These services are indispensable for the development of any society but have remained elusive to a large number of women”, he added.

    If ppp govt tries to control the population growth, it will erode their power base. Generally speaking, ppp followers are poor and this is the only entertainment they have. Thats why they breed like rabbits.

    You idiot convert it to your advantage, China did.

    The problem with you Pakistani politicians is that you are not even third rated. You are just cheap loafers boasting off like teenage kids boasting in their corner meetings about the girls they flirted and that too in their mind (in their imagination). You lack the courage and the foresight of a statesman with which it steers the nation through times of difficulty.

    You and others like you namely Nawaz Sharif are burden for Pakistan.
