Today, every nation is
struggling to raise its living standard and to live a better life in the world;
they have raised their status from a caveman to spaceman. But we Pakistani are
tangled in many internal problems i.e. corruption, violence , smuggling,
terrorism, food security crisis, declining and flattering economy, omnipresent
social disorder all have played their part in weakening our country and tearing
the fabric of our society.
Prof.Martin S. Dwarkin in his book “DEWEY EDUCATION” writes: “Education is mans,
most formidable tool for survival. It is said that there are three main
techniques through which we can solve our problems. First, REVOLUTION, second,
WAR and third EDUCATION. But education is on the top it prepares a man both for
the period of WAR and PEACE. But unfortunately our education system in Pakistan
is a PLAY TOY. It is engaging a student in learning about distant and great
things but he has little interest in knowing little but important things around
him. He is busy in cramming the character of great peoples but fails to
understand his own character. The student is asked to read the lesson from books
but not from the Life. In short words our Education System is filling Empty
Vessels (mind) with some figures and theories but not with Wisdom.
Education is the only solution to all the problems that Pakistan is tangled in
nowadays. It is the only panacea which can pave the way for the solution of all
the problems prevailing in almost every field of life. So it is the need of hour
to bring changes in our education system if we want to compete with the world
which is moving very fast in this direction.
