Former UNDP director takes aim at Pakistan's elite in scathing final interview
[TRIBUNE.PK] In a scathing criticism of the Pak elite, the former director of United Nations...a formerly good idea gone bad... Development Programme (UNDP) for Pakistain Marc-André Franche, said the only way a critical change could happen in the country was when the influential, the politicians and the wealthy, would sacrifice short term, individual and family interests for the benefit of the nation. "You cannot have an elite that takes advantage of very cheap and uneducated labour when it comes to making money, and when it is time to party it is found in London, and when it’s time to buy things it is in Dubai, and when it’s time to buy property it invests in Dubai or Europe or New York. The elite needs to decide do they want a country or not," Franche said, according to the Business Recorder. Posted by: Fred 2016-08-30 |
