A Sage Advice to India and Pakistan
“We cannot use the present to live in the past and thus lose the future” quote from Former Governor Sind, Mr. Kamal Azfar, in his memoirs “The waters of Lahore”.
Mr. Azfar wrote:
“If Asia is to lead the world in the twenty first century, it’s leaders, like those of post-war France and Germany, the two pillars of the EU, ought to rise to the occasion and constitute an Asian Common Market, consisting of SAARC, China and Asia, which would include followers of the four major faiths, Christianity, Islam, Hinduism and Buddhism, all of which arose in Asia”.
He postulates that the bloody wars fought between the nations of Asia will not be forgotten, as the wars of Europe have not been forgotten. He ends his chapter on the “Asian Century” with his famous line quoted earlier:
“We cannot use the present to live in the past and thus lose the future”.
