Pak Should Be Included In US Ban List: Khan
Updated : Jan 30, 2017
Former Pakistan cricketer and Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaaf (PTI) party president expressed that Pakistan should be added to the list of seven countries whose nationals are barred from entering the US. "Now that Trump has become the (US) president, it is likely his travel ban will be extended to Pakistan. I think, to an extent, and I want all Pakistanis to hear it, that he should go ahead and extend the ban to Pakistanis so that we can focus on fixing our country."
According to him, most educated Pakistanis leave the country because they believe only knowing someone powerful will get them a good job if they stay on. "The day we bring back the merit system back to Pakistan, all our best citizens will return and work for the betterment of this country," Imran said, adding that the country can only improve if its citizens work for progress, if corruption is curbed and when justice is delivered.
Dramatically, Imran Khan stated that the day Pakistan got a government that is convinced it has to live and die in Pakistan, the country would be fixed.
