Is The Dream of Imran Khan’s Naya Pakistan
Still a Possibility?
By Mehr Tarar
October 24,
2020
All week
long, Pakistan’s electronic media and Twitter were abuzz with two slogans and
their aftermath. Without much ado, one incident turned into a colossal
spectacle in less than twenty-four hours. That is the thing about the wrong
slogans at the right place. And that is the thing about Pakistan. Small events
have a way of enlarging themselves into massive dramas of Mexican soap
opera-ish decibels and emotions and hamming.
IG of
police “bullied”, the “deep state” acting in cahoots with the civilian government
to harm the opposition, the opposition leadership’s pontification about the
sanctity of “chaddar aur char-deewari” (veil and [sanctity of] four walls [of
home]), and government pooh-poohing every claim of the opposition. Business as
usual, and life and noise go on.
Amidst that
din of Machiavellian politics came Prime Minister Imran Khan’s interview on ARY
News on Friday evening. The opposition, and their supporters on Twitter, many
of whom work for or used to work for various newspapers and TV channels, and
analysts and self-proclaimed intellectuals, dissed the interview, the
interviewee, and the interviewers. The predictability of that reaction is
duller than the sight of sand in a desert. I find interviews of heads of states
a mere repetition of the oft-stated rhetoric and empty promises. The
unoriginality of answers is as guaranteed as the day changing colours. But then
during a post-midnight scroll down my Twitter timeline I came across a clip
posted by PTI’s official handle.
It was
Imran Khan being…Imran Khan. Speaking from the heart, speaking artlessly,
speaking with an honesty that lights up his crinkled eyes, animates the
movement of his rosary encircled left hand, and enhances the simplicity of his
analogies, Khan was once again the leader millions rooted for to become the
change Pakistan so desperately needed in 2018 and voted him into power. Khan
commenting on the plight of people facing the current staggering inflation
said:
“Unfortunately,
when people are in pain, their sabr (patience) ends too. Pain is inevitable.
I’ll explain [it] in simple language to the nation. There is a home. In the
home two, three family members gamble, drink, waste money. They leave the home
in debts. The family members left behind, what do they do? If they are going to
fix the home, there are only two ways [to do that] since Allah has created this
world: lower your expenses and increase your income. Think of ways to increase
the income and keep lowering your expenses in order to avoid taking loans. In
any case no one is ready to give [you] a loan. Now the inhabitants of that home
are sitting [in a bind]. Sometimes, the rent collector arrives, someone says
you haven’t paid for groceries, sometimes it is the unpaid school fee. The
[people living in that] home face a hard time.
Now if at
that time you take a microphone to the people of that home to ask them about
the performance of those taking care of their issues, of course, they’re going
to say they’re facing death, facing destruction. From eating chicken, they have
come down to eating dal, from two rotis to one. This is what happens when the
home is buried in loans.”
Khan went
on to explain how his government inherited a treasury buried in debts, an
abysmal current account deficit, and the steps taken to repay those loans.
Not many
people will talk about Khan’s unaltering profound empathy when he talks about
the suffering millions of Pakistan. Not many naysayers will see beyond the
unimaginative, soft questions of the almost deferential interviewers to
understand the immense pain Khan feels for every family facing the darkness of
inflation, every young person seeking in vain a viable job, every heartbroken
poor looking for ways to give his undernourished children three meals a day.
Not many watching him talk will note that Khan cares for the wellbeing of each
and every Pakistan. Deeply, consistently.
After every
speech of Khan and after every interview of Khan, beyond the expected plaudits
of his party leaders, cabinet members, and party supporters, the most noticeable
thing on Twitter and TV channels is the focus on Khan’s hard, unchanging stance
vis-à-vis the cases of corruption and misuse of authority. What is discussed,
breathlessly, is Khan’s “obsession” about not giving an NRO–the official
unofficial pardon–and reiterating ad nauseam that he will punish all those who
looted the country’s treasury. Everything else Khan says is of zero
significance to the combined opposition, recently emerged in the form of
Pakistan Democratic Movement, and their supporters on TV and on Twitter and in
dimly lit living rooms and on WhatsApp groups across Pakistan.
All the
efforts that Prime Minister Khan and his government are making for resolving of
minor and major national concerns, and their hours-long work every day, without
a break, to figure out ways of eradication of issues, micro and macro, is
reduced to three headlines, in varied forms, in different degrees of shrillness
and uniformity: Imran Khan’s government is a failure. Imran Khan talks about
nothing but corruption. Imran Khan’s government is doing nothing but plotting
ways to push the opposition against something higher and thicker than the Games
of Thrones wall.
The
strategy seems to be working well. People hear these politicians on TV, and
they believe them. Opposition is always more credible when the incumbent
government seems to be struggling to get things under control, is flailing in
various domains, appears to be struggling to clearly enunciate its message, the
communication skills of its spokespersons are weaker than the emotional
rhetoric of the opposition, and most of its press conferences focus on issues
that are of little or no relevance to the regular Pakistani.
Amidst the
quibbling of a representative of government, two opposition leaders, one mostly
partisan anchor-person, the circus disguised as a debate every night ends
in…nothing. The audience hears nothing but blame and more blame and counter
blame. In their homes where they suffer in silence, in redundant tears, in
constant prayers, they seldom hear what the government is doing. They mostly
remain unaware of what Imran Khan and his government are doing for them.
What the
suffering millions do not hear in raucous TV shows and linear press conferences
that in just one wee –October 19-October 23–the Prime Minister’s Office and his
ministers announced:
“Prime
Minister said, ‘I am the one who is most deeply pained by the issue of
inflation. I will not tolerate any lapse in the way of providing relief to the
people’.”
“Prime
Minister has instructed all district officers to take strict actions against
hoarders and profiteers. Abundant availability of basic items on prefixed
prices must be ensured.”
“Prime
Minister said that the purchase of wheat and other essentials must be ensured
through proper planning in order to avoid a situation of shortage and
inflation. Using modern technology, agriculturists must be provided facilities
to increase production.”
“In the
next few days, two hundred thousand tonne sugar will be imported [to solve the
issue of unavailability of sugar].”
“For the
first time in Pakistan’s history, government is constructing houses for the
underprivileged and [low] salaried people.”
“Prime
Minister has instructed banks to ensure easy availability of loans [for
construction of houses] to underprivileged people in a manner that takes into
special consideration their self-respect [dignity].”
“Prime
Minister said that the government is doing its best to enhance the range of the
National Health Card so that more people are able to utilise the facility.”
“In his
first address to the nation, Prime Minister Imran Khan discussed stunted growth
which affects 4/10 Pakistani children. Two years on, a comprehensive programme,
Nashonuma under Ehsaas Pakistan, to fight stunting and malnutrition has been
launched in nine districts.”
“In the
past 24 hours [Oct 22], no locusts have been reported in KP, Punjab, Sindh and
Balochistan. Anti-locust survey operations are in progress. In the last 24
hours, 137,525 hectares have been surveyed. In the last six months, 1,13,4488 hectares
have been treated.”
“A
fishermen welfare fund will be established for welfare schemes of local
fishermen.”
“First time
in 50 years, two big dams are being constructed.”
“Current
account was in surplus of $73 million during Sept, bringing surplus for 1st
quarter to $792 million compared to deficit of $1,492 million during same time
last year. Exports grew 29 percent and remittances grew 9 percent over previous
month.”
“Pre-corona
data on economic KPIs shows that almost all economic indicators had a positive
trajectory. Then we [Khan’s government] tackled Corona and now again things are
improving.”
“Pakistan
has achieved impressive progress on its FATF action plan. 21 out of 27 action
items now stand cleared. Remaining 6 rated as partially complete. Within a
year, we progressed from 5/27 to 21/27 completed items. FATF acknowledged that
any blacklisting is off the table now.”
It may not
be enough, it may not always be the best idea, it may not sometimes work. But
one step at a time, one day at a time, implementation of one initiative at a
time, Prime Minister Imran Khan and his government are doing their best to
fulfil their promise of a naya Pakistan that is for all who call it home.
InshaAllah

Presidential Debate 2020: Biden Finds a Way to
Handle Trump
By Virginia Heffernan
October 24,
2020
The Donald
Trump who showed up for the debate Thursday was the glum one. Someone had told
him to keep a lid on it, and he was visibly chastened.
“I get
treated very badly,” he moped early on. “No president should have to go through
what I went through.”
Trump was
on such a short leash that he didn’t even bring gusto to his usual scattershot
attacks on Joe Biden. He tried to interrupt the moderator, Kristen Welker, in
his usual way, jabbing his finger at her and saying, “Excuse me, excuse me,”
but he folded when she moved to keep him in check.
So Trump
was less animated than usual, but the hangdog performance only laid bare how
little substance he brings to the debate stage.
Biden knows
the rules of political engagement are in splinters. The days of reasoned debate
are behind us. So of course he hasn’t been trying to bring up the fine points
of decarbonisation or critical race theory in his head-to-heads with President
Trump.
It’s hard
to remember now, but campaigners like Barack Obama and Mitt Romney and Ronald
Reagan and Jimmy Carter once had rational exchanges of views on topics of
import and even sophistication.
But Biden —
like the rest of us tired Americans — recognises that the Trump show is nothing
but brute affect, volume and body language. Whether dialled to 11 or kept to a
dull roar, that show has become monotonous.
In
competitions, we often think the advantage belongs to the player with the most
options. A basketball player who has a wide range of shots, skills and
strategies does better than a one-trick pony.
But in a
verbal negotiation, the player with the most limited range often has an edge.
If one person knows only English and a second person knows Yoruba, Swahili,
French and English, the second person is forced to speak the monoglot’s
language. And if that’s not her first language, she has less command of it.
This is
true of American dialects too. Biden, like nearly all Americans with experience
or education or both, has a range of idioms. He speaks folksy, posh,
senatorial, legalese, heart-broken, hopeful and even (in cringe moments)
something he seems to think may be Ebonics. He also can be ironic.
Trump has
no ear for irony. And he speaks only the language of New Yorkese circa the
1980s. This idiom is politely described as brash. In fact, it’s more fighting
style than language. Its moves are volume, interruption, vulgarity, shutdowns,
insults, whataboutisms — anything to dominate an opponent, deflect an
interlocutor. There’s nothing that looks or sounds like verifiable facts, a
marshaling of evidence, an application of reason.
When, at
one point, Biden steered the conversation from infighting to ordinary
Americans, referring as he routinely does to his childhood in Scranton, Pa.,
Trump blurted nonsensically: “He doesn’t come from Scranton.” (Biden comes from
Scranton.)
When Trump
was asked about the more than 500 children separated from their families at the
border and still not reunited, he went for reflexive projection. “They did it,”
he said. “We changed the policy. They built the cages.”
Never does
Trump engage with the question at hand. He doesn’t even defend his position on
immigration or the border wall. His brain just fires out syllables meant to
parry questions he experiences as attacks, meaning all questions.
And of
course, here was Trump “debating” Biden on Sept. 29:
Biden: “My
son was in Iraq. He spent a year there ... He got the Bronze Star. He got the
Conspicuous Service Medal. He was not a loser ...”
Trump: “Are
you talking Hunter? Are you talking about Hunter?”
Biden: “I’m
talking about my son Beau Biden ...”
Trump: “I
don’t know Beau. I know Hunter. Hunter got ...”
And off
Trump went into a world of off-topic lies. He didn’t take the clear opportunity
to temper or deny the cruel comments he has reportedly made about American
soldiers. He just started madly firing a cowboy pistol loaded with the word
“Hunter.”
This style
is out of bounds. And Biden clearly found it repellent. He refused to even try
to match it.
Biden on
Thursday turned instead to a strategy he has employed throughout the campaign,
one also often used with toddlers and drunks. He detached from the ego battle,
for the most part ignored the jabs, smiled, looked away and shook his head to
register disbelief.
Irony has
been overused to meta-designate everything from trucker hats to unmet
expectations. But the distance it can create remains a powerful tool, even
against language and behaviour as aggressive as Trump’s.
Ironists
don’t mistake Trump’s claims, say, for reality; they keep his words in
quotation marks. The ironic stance keeps Biden from having to walk out, to
disengage or to bash back.
The
Hungarian-born British psychologist Peter Fonagy has shown how it works for
parents. When a mother hears her child cry, she ought to walk but not rush to
attend him. And having assured him he’s been heard, she should turn right away.
A good parent “lightens feelings with ironic detachment (It’s not the end of
the world).”
For someone
like Trump whose feelings have been taken way too seriously for way too long,
ironic detachment is key. Biden displayed it when he shook his head in amused
disbelief over Trump’s attack on Hunter in September. He did it Thursday when
Trump levelled left-field accusations at him or started rambling about small
windows and how the sun doesn’t offer enough power.
Trump
raves, lies outrageously, pushes one melodrama after another, and Biden shakes
his head and keeps his focus. He used one of his favourite ways of dismissing
Trump again, and it suited the moment: “malarkey.”
“You’re
full of nonsense,” he as much as says. “We got it; I got it, but really, kid,
I’ve got work to do.”
Irony is
not flashy. But it works. And Biden has presented a model of how to respond to
Trump’s provocations in the next crucial days. America hears Trump whining
about the end of the world. But we know it’s not.

The Final Debate Reinforced Biden’s Lead
By Anna Jacobs
23 Oct 2020
President
Donald Trump and his Democratic challenger, Joe Biden, met for their second and
final presidential debate on Thursday night in Nashville, Tennessee. The debate
was moderated by Kristen Welker, the White House correspondent of NBC News, and
featured a mute button to help maintain order after the chaos of the first
presidential debate.
This debate
featured a calmer, more substantive discussion on policy. Both candidates made
their final appeals to the electorate and issued their final attacks on the
opposing candidate. Biden sharpened his message on Trump’s failed leadership on
managing the COVID-19 pandemic and the lack of a healthcare reform plan while
Trump fired back, arguing that Biden represents an inactive, corrupt politician
who has done nothing during his decades in public service.
Biden’s
most important message of the night was unity and empathy, which seems to be
winning over undecided voters. They support the idea of bringing the country
together amid intense division and partisanship. According to a CNN instant
poll of debate watchers, Biden did a better job in the debate. Fifty-three
percent of voters who watched the debate said Biden won the debate, while 39
percent said that Trump did.
More
polling will surface in the coming days about the debate and its impact on
undecided voters, but early impressions indicate that it did not fundamentally
change the dynamics of the race. Even Fox News contributor Doug Schoen argued
that “it is safe to say the 96-minute exchange between President Trump and
former Vice President Joe Biden will likely not fundamentally alter the
presidential race. Over 48 million Americans have already voted, and few people
remain undecided.”
While many
agree that Trump’s performance was better this time around, it was not enough
to shift the momentum of the race. But it is important to remember the CNN
debate poll after the third presidential debate in 2016 showed Clinton winning
by only one point less than Biden (52 percent for Clinton, and 39 percent for
Trump).
With just
11 days to the election, this debate reinforced Biden’s lead. Nearly 50 million
Americans have already cast their ballot, a record number. Polling shows that
Democrats are voting earlier and in huge numbers, whereas Trump voters are
choosing to wait, thanks to the president’s false statements that voting early
would lead to voter fraud.
But none of
us can forget 2016. At this point in the 2016 election cycle, most pollsters
gave Hillary Clinton a 90 percent probability of beating Trump. So, what is
different this time around?
‘Learning
to live with it? Come on! We are learning to die with it!’
The key
difference is COVID-19. Trump is attempting to paint a more positive picture to
show that his administration is in control of the situation, but the numbers
show otherwise. Eight and a half million Americans have been infected, and more
than 220,000 have died. As Biden reminded us, it is possible that another
200,000 could die by the end of the year. Infection rates are increasing across
the country. There is also a sharp rise in the number of hospitalisations and
deaths. The day before this debate, there were nearly 65,000 new COVID-19
cases, one of the highest daily rates on record. The economy is sputtering as
this public health crisis continues to hurt American families. Families,
schools, and small businesses are suffering. Americans are in dire need of
leadership.
Trump uses
China as a scapegoat and essentially refuses to take responsibility for how the
pandemic has been managed during his presidency. He regularly attacks popular
civil servants like Dr Anthony Fauci and downplays the dangers of the virus.
He
reaffirmed this messaging in the debate, and it is hurting his chances. He
continues to mock mask wearing and social distancing, all while denying the
gravity of this crisis. Voters are also not immune to his ceaseless flood of
lies. Trump regularly contradicts his own experts and insists that a vaccine
will be ready by the end of the year. The lack of transparency and honesty
surrounding the presidency is more unmistakable than ever.
Trump’s
strategy is not working. Most Americans disapprove of Trump’s handling of the
coronavirus crisis. In the debate, Trump claimed we are learning to live with
the reality of the virus, but Biden fired back: “Learning to live with it? Come
on! We are learning to die with it.”
This was
one of the best moments of the night for Biden. Similar to his strategy in the
first debate, Biden spoke directly to the camera and evoked empathy. He spoke
directly to people who have lost loved ones to the pandemic, reaffirming his
core message: a president should embody integrity, empathy, and compassion.
The
importance of healthcare
Unsurprisingly,
COVID-19 and healthcare were front and centre in this debate. This
unprecedented health crisis has added even more importance to the healthcare
debate and highlighted concerns about what would happen if Obamacare is
overturned. Even before the coronavirus crisis, healthcare was one of the top
priorities for American voters. In the 2018 midterm elections, three-quarters
of registered voters cited healthcare (75 percent) and economy (74 percent) as
their top voting issues.
This is
important because healthcare is one of Trump’s clearest failures. Trump and the
Republicans have no healthcare reform plan to replace Obamacare if it is
overturned by the Supreme Court. Trump promises that the millions of Americans
with pre-existing medical conditions will be able to keep their health
insurance, but he cannot explain how. The Republicans have had more than 10
years to propose an alternative to Obamacare, and they still have nothing. This
reality is not lost on American voters, and it is more salient than ever in
2020.
In the debate,
Biden set up a clear contrast between his platform and that of Trump’s,
affirming that “healthcare is not a privilege, it is a right”. Biden wants to
reform and expand Obamacare, while the Trump administration is supporting a
lawsuit to have it thrown out with no plan for how to replace it. All this in
the middle of a pandemic. Eleven days out, Trump and the Republicans still have
no answer on healthcare.
Joe Biden
is not Hillary Clinton, and Trump is no longer the ‘outsider’
Perhaps
Trump’s more effective messages of the night coalesced around attacks targeting
Biden as a corrupt politician. Trump called into question Biden’s 47 years in
office, asking what would be different this time around. It is a fair question,
and these attacks on Biden could convince some undecided voters. It worked well
in 2016 against Hillary Clinton, when Trump was an outsider. But he is not an
outsider any more. He can no longer promise to “drain the swamp” – he is now
the essence of the swamp.
Polling and
focus groups show more positive opinions of Biden than Clinton. Many
independent voters who sat out in 2016 or voted for third party candidates
because they so strongly disliked both Clinton and Trump are more comfortable
voting for Biden. There are many reasons for this, from perceptions about the
Clintons as a corrupt political family and Hillary’s personal likability, to
rampant sexism that poses extra challenges to women trying to rise to the
highest levels of national politics.
But a lot
can happen in the remaining 11 days
It is 2020,
and American politics is more unpredictable than ever. There are still pathways
for a Trump victory, albeit narrow ones, and there are a plethora of wild cards
and uncertainties that could shift dynamics at any moment. Many of us remember,
for example, when FBI Director James Comey sent a letter to Congress about
Hillary Clinton’s emails on October 28, only a few days before the election,
which dominated the news cycle and hurt her standing in the polls. Major
pollsters claim that the Comey letter probably cost Clinton the election, only
days before it took place.
It is
scenarios like these that are keeping the Biden campaign up at night.
Moreover,
we are voting in the middle of a global pandemic and orchestrated
disinformation campaigns. There are serious concerns about foreign election
interference and the impact of disinformation on social media platforms, as
well as questions about voter turnout under social distancing regimes, mail-in
voting, and a host of legal challenges to state voting rules.
In 2016,
pollsters were unable to capture a key constituency of Trump voters –
non-college-educated whites in the so-called “Rust Belt” – because they were
less likely to answer phone calls from pollsters. These voters in crucial swing
states like Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Wisconsin were the key element of
Trump’s 2016 win, and they are more important than ever this time around. To
push back against Biden’s steady lead in the polls and in fundraising,
Republicans have spotlighted their successes in voter registration campaigns in
Florida, North Carolina, Arizona, and Pennsylvania, arguing that these Trump
voters are not being included in polling. This will help Republicans, but I do
not think it will be enough.
This debate
was one of Trump’s last chances to move the needle among undecided voters. He
may have been calmer and more restrained, but his outrageous statements and
lies were as present as ever (at one point he said he was “the least racist
person in the room”). Biden was sharper than he was in the first debate and
stayed on message. His final message to Americans was one of empathy and unity,
a much-needed contrast to Trump’s divisiveness and vitriol. But it is 2020, and
anything can happen.

Saudi Ban Shows Importance of Rules-Based Trade
By Güven Sak
October 24
2020
Turkey
still does not have an ambassador in Tel Aviv, our president campaigns against
Israel whenever he gets the chance, and conditions under the COVID-19 pandemic
are less than ideal, yet Turkish-Israeli trade continues unhindered. In the
first nine months of 2020, Turkey’s exports to Israel amounted to $3.2 billion,
almost the same as the export volume of 2019. Troubled political relations
between the two countries have not had a direct impact on bilateral trade.
There are no calls for boycotts, nor measures to slow down trade between Turkey
and Israel. Despite the troubled relationship between Erdogan and Netanyahu,
the system works.
Turkey
still has an ambassador in Riyadh, yet we are now hearing calls for boycotting
“made in Turkey” products in Saudi Arabia. Since the savage murder of Jamal
Khashoggi in the Saudi consulate in Istanbul, political relations between the
countries have been deteriorating, and it is having a direct effect on
bilateral trade. The Saudis are calling for a broad boycott of Turkish
products, or at the very least, slowing down customs procedures for Turkish
products.
Note that
Turkey’s bilateral trade with Saudi Arabia is about one third lower than its
trade with Israel.
Turkey is a
trading nation. It is very difficult to trade with its eastern and southern
neighbors, which is why more than 50 percent of Turkish industrial products go
to the West. The European Union is a cluster of rules-based nation states, and
Turkey has become an integral part of its market. European value chains pass
through Turkey, especially in the automotive sector. These relations resist and
sometimes even grow under an incredible amount of political pressure.
Why is it
hard to sell goods to the east and south? Turkey’s eastern and southern
neighbors are not rules-based nation states. It means that if you want to enter
their markets, your capital has to be on good terms with their capital. For a
long time, Ankara got along tolerably well with Riyadh, and trade was fine. Now
that political relations are suffering, trade is suffering.
Turkey and
Israel are both functioning market economies, hence the commercial contacts
between private companies are not directly affected by political problems
between Ankara and Tel Aviv. Trade flourishes despite political bickering.
The level
of political relations is, of course, not good for deepening commercial ties
between the two countries, yet existing relations can continue. Trade stays
more or less on the same level.
What do
these calls for boycotting Turkish products and slowing down Turkish container
traffic to Saudi Arabia entail?
Saudi
Arabia is not yet anywhere near becoming a functioning market economy, I’m
afraid. Despite ambitious transformation programs, the country is neither a
market economy nor a rules-based nation state. If Saudi Arabia is serious about
its post-oil future, it should get serious about its transformation program and
become a constructive commercial player in our region.
