JI calls for strengthening ties with China

LAHORE, : The Jamaat e Islami chief, Syed Munawar Hasan, has impressed upon President Zardari and Prime Minister Gilani to reciprocate the warmth shown by the
Chinese leadership during Prime Minister Gilani’s current visit in order to get rid of the US slavery.
Addressing the Friday congregation at Mansoora mosque here, he said that the Chinese Prime Minister had extended all out support to this country at this difficult hour and the situation demanded that the Pakistani President and Prime Minister also established their loyalty for the country instead of the Americans.
Syed Munawar Hasan said that the entire nation wanted to throw out the yoke of US slavery but the rulers were least worried about the country as their sole concern was to please Washington. The rulers in Islamabad were more loyal to US President Obama than even the Americans but if they did not mend their ways and put the country’s independence and solidarity at stake in the on going US war, millions of Pakistani would adopt the path of Osama bin Laden, he warned.
The government must implement the parliament’s resolution in its letter and spirit and stop drone attacks and US unilateral actions, he added.
Syed Munawar Hasan stressed upon the government not to hand over Osama’s wives and children to the US.
The JI chief maintained that the politicians who had their bank accounts, properties and families abroad, could neither stand against the US nor defend national interests. Only the patriotic people who were loyal to the country could defend the country while those steeped in corruption from head to foot would always protect their selfish ends, he added.
Unfortunately, he said, the nation had been in the grip of selfish and corrupt leaders so far. In the next elections, he said, the people would have to get rid of self seeking and corrupt leaders and elect a leadership that had the will and the competence to solve their problems and also stand face to face the foreign powers.
Syed Munawar Hasan said that the parliament had adopted two resolution on the present crisis. The foremost point in the both was that the foreign policy be reviewed and reframed in the lager national interest. Further, that the US slavery ad drone attacks be dispensed with and dialogue be started with all the stake holders. But unfortunately, neither the first resolution was implemented nor was there any indication of the second one being put in force. In fact, he said, US Senator John Kerry had shattered to pieces the latest resolution but the rulers kept mum on that.
