How about we have world class universities in every city in Pakistan that produce top of the line graduates?
Graduates, doing what exactly? Wrong priorities, wrong direction and wrong assumptions!
The purpose of universities and institutes should not be to produce cardboard boxes by the dozen! If they cannot be from the native discourse and develop from it... they are effectively useless!

Meaning, that institutes should rightfully be research and development centers, incubation centers and enhancement/value-addition places... in other words improve upon current and replace!

Desk jokeys with a letter of entitlement means nothing and it is abundantly apparent in it's affect.

If Pakistan has an ironsmith/blacksmith a university should improve upon his skill, inform him on other relevant and best practices, not make him a boot polisher in chain of command!

I hope you got the gist of my rant...

As you rightly pointed out, the most pressing issue in almost all Pakistani universities is the ironic and deliberate curbing of any scholarly or independent thought processes, both academic and otherwise. It happens when the Universities are run by illiterate imbeciles; a retired Colonel here and a failed businessman there. A professor who bites back at a question from a student is not fit to clean the bathrooms of that university.

Clouded vision and misplaced priorities!

Otherwise sane people moving heavens and earths for a parchment only good in display glass as an achievement for rest of life and posterity.

Imagine a gainfully employed graduate with a brand new car at a garage in front of a mechanic of around the same age and his fate being decided on the faith of mechanic on either to replace the engine or just the spark plugs...

And that very graduates mate equally endowed with similar set of honors in a filling case doing rounds of different establishments in hopes of same...
extreme but you get the point!

Institutes and universities long ago stopped producing people with a skill set that allows them either independent thought, improvement in life or trade. And you can see that manifested all around you...

In matters of housing, manufacturing, growing value addition, so on and so forth...

People are actually being intently dislodged from cultural knowledge and historic contexts and deeper meaning.

An example is a shift from adobe housing that shifted in it's modern form in most developing countries without even ground rules that previous ones followed, that were more grounded in the local needs and requirements... such as extreme heat, fire, torrential rains or extreme periods of dry weather...

Instead a more superficial understanding has taken root, one that borrows from aesthetics of west Instead of grounded reality.
 
Just curious! What’s the price range in US $s? Can the foreigners buy property in Pak?


Good indicator for pricing.
