Free, Fair and Transparent 2108 Elections
By Naveed Khan

People of Pakistan have expressed their preference for governance in the 2018 Elections. I take a lot of positives from these elections: Record turnout despite security threats. Exceptional transparency, use of paper ballots, not the EVM which can easily be tempered with. Record number of female candidates, record number of minority candidates.
I am awed by the courage and belief of the people of Pakistan, especially women, who turned out in record numbers to cast their ballot. I believe Pakistan elections have more credibility and transparency than elections in the USA or India, the two biggest democracies.
As an expatriate Pakistani, it is my solemn duty to support the elected government so that they can deliver good governance, fix the enormous problems confronting Pakistan, and strengthen Pakistan.
Pakistan has enormous potential, it is a land of smart people, happy people, generous people. Pakistan needs our help, our support our encouragement to become a moderate modern country. Every individual of Pakistan is of enormous value and respect for me. Pakistan diaspora needs to shun parochial politics and support the elected government to make Pakistan stronger.
