Musharaf's recent press confrence
"70% Pakistanis support him" According to him "70% people live in villages"
"Journalists only find modern Pakistanis who hate me"
Well this photo was shot in Capital can you imagine conditions of Villages :huh
No electricity No Gas No water Welcome to Musharaff's 100% country :rofl

It was great when one of the journalist said "Visa don't allow us to go to villages" Mush was unaware of the fact :rolleyes

    Great captures-

    Interesting in the first shot, you can see what appears to be tourists climbing the stairs to ????? while not so far away sits your subject in abject poverty.

    The second shot is interesting in that the newspaper seems to be an written in English.

    Well done.
