A shocking report covered by The Nation, a Pakistani Newspaper, published on April 01, 2011 says that 10,825 Pakistanis applied for asylum in 44 other countries last year. The number of such applicants stood at 11,287 in 2009.
Most of the application were sent to European countries while countries in the list of Pakistani people is anywhere from US to UK to Saudi Arabia or Dubai. The opportunities, facility and freedom is relatively higher when compared to the present day Pakistan. According to a survey conducted by an Islamabad-based organization, 27 per cent of all Pakistanis want to leave the country and settle abroad, as quoted by the Pakistan daily.
The present situation in Pakistan is such that even politicians who are not in power seek shelter in London. These days more and more advertisements of such sorts can be found in various places advertising about agencies which deals in getting the visa cleared for the industrialists, businessman, capitalists and professionals of suitable countries for them.
The newspaper further gave details about the rough idea of people who have left or wanting to leave. People are now becoming consultants to offer advice to other citizen to reach their favourite country within least time and with least difficulties. A large number of people have, in fact, already left the country. Cases of hundreds and thousands of others are being processed by some foreign embassies.

As the European countries are becoming stricter to prevent mass migration, it is not clear whether all of them will be able to get a place in their dream land. But one thing is true that the citizens are not happy with what is going on in Pakistan.
"With a huge diversity in dialects and ethnicity of population in Pakistan, most of them are united just because all of then hate India", says a Pakistani man. "But the unity no longer holds when they see their own politicians doing almost nothing for them but everything for America."
In general Pakistani love their country than anything else and can go to any extent to protect the image of the nation, but if such thing is happening in large, then there is some problem in the nation, which we feel is the security. Daily bomb blasts by home grown extremists, has made the problem tough and the place unsuitable for the common gentlemen to live.
Pakistani policy of giving shelter, support and fund to extremists doing their anti India activity has failed by some manner. Today these extremists are stronger than the government, and have formed the third polarity of power, Army, terrorists and Government shares the power in Pakistan in that order.
This needs to be corrected, when Pakistan won independence western world congratulated and predicted that Pakistan will do better than India, due to the presence of highly fertile River Indus delta, a strong forming ideology and it was favourite for businessman and traders.
India was branded as an unstable extra bigger nation of the poor where except the Ganga delta there was nothing, almost barren thar desert, himalayas and deccan plateu.
But today the situation is other way round, India is feeding itself and rest of the world, its service sector is the backbone of major companies around the world. A 4th largest economy, and largest democracy, and one of the very few free societies in South Asia.
A stable Pakistan is in interest of all, but it will not remain stable if these gentlemen will go outside the country.
