Pakistan will only progress with reforms which improve governance and accountability. The current political system has been hijacked by the powerful and the rich through constituency based politics. I suggest the following reforms: 1. Proportional representation with local bodies. 2. Direct elections of PM and CMs; abolish President and Governors positions. 3. Separate legislative and executive functions. Parliamentarians should not be in executive positions. Finish their incentive to make money and exert political influence. 4. Divide Pakistan in to administratively manageable units. All units to have directly elected CMs. 5. Senate should be directly elected. 6. Term of parliament and political office should be 4 years. 7. Size of govt should be reduced to 1/3 with merger of various ministries. Minimise regulatory agencies. Bureaucrats With unsatisfactory performance must be forcibly retired after grade 18 (just as army retires after Major/Colonel) and lateral entry of technocrats to be allowed. 8. Extensive judicial reforms for speedy justice. This is not an exhaustive list. Just an indication of what needs to be done to have a good system of governance in place. Obviously this requires change in the constitution.
