0511hrs:
I have been burning the midnight oil to get through a lot of things on our public agenda.
This was just one of them:
I always knew this video would have to be re-visited from time to time.
Here are some points that I have extracted from his speech and translated them for added clarity:
n.b. Time (in video) is followed by extracts of his speech.
13:06 - Pakistan's foreign policy is not in sync with the needs of the Kashmiri people.
14:22 - According to a survey in the (Kashmir) Valley, sympathy for Pakistan was at 6%.
14:32 - At night on the internet I see people mobilising for an independent Kashmir.
14: 45 - How governments are made and broken here - (the absence of democracy) - that Kashmir (Valley) has been robbed and we don't want to become someone else's colony. Or some other country's citizen(s).
15:19 - An innocent woman cannot live between 3 gangsters (aik sharif zaadi 3 goondo ke darmiyan nahi reh sakti!) This is difficult, it cannot happen. We don't know who controls the (Pakistani) foreign ministry.
18:14 - This constitutional set-up is not capable of fulfilling the aspirations of the people. This is not possible.
19:30 - If we had control, none of these issues would arise.
19:39 - The role of Chief Election Commissioner is also used to wring our necks.
19:48 - For Mangla, I don't want royalty, I want net hydel profit like NWFP (now KPK).
23:00 - Voluntary soldiers (billa thankhwa fauj) is a drama.
23:35 - Pakistani PM Gilani whispered in my (Raja Farooq Haider's) ear that I will get Kashmir for you!
24:00 - We (AJK) have no voice. We don't exist.
24:36 - Amend Article 257 of Pakistani Constitution to bring it up to date. Add another article and take us back to the acceptance position (of that standstill agreement) and let us do our own thing! Its as simple as that!
24: 57 - (While narrating a conversation with Pakistani PM Gilani) Ghulam Sadiq and I may be talking to you nicely but who (of us) you meet in future may not be so pleasant, when talking to you.
25: 32 - When the money is mine then taxation is my job, I have to spend it (and do budgeting). Why should Manzoor Watoo (then Minister for Kashmir Affairs) give clearance?
25: 47 - A hawaldaar (sergeant in Pakistan's clandestine agencies) will be writing that I'm anti Pakistan.
27:15 - We have our own State identity
28: 25 Mirs of Hunza and Nagar discouraged by Sardar Ibrahim Khan with good arguments from 'acceding' with Hari Singh (My note: This point needs further elaboration)
28: 40 - The people here basically fought themselves for this territory (in 1947).
30: 10 - A lot of bad times are ahead for Pakistan where it will face a lot of economic problems.
