Pakistan on its cutting edge by Milota Sidorova

Pakistan is fighting the worst-ever natural disaster. About three weeks ago heavy rains hit the country and caused floods affecting both North and South regions. According statistics about one third of the country was affected, around 5,000 schools have turned into temporary shelters for millions of flood refugees. But more are about to come, since another isolated rains are expected in next 24 hours. People are leaving their homes, claiming their areas turned into dangerous zones – water has destroyed much of the rice crops, the basic food supply and the core of Pakistani agriculture. Fields are being swept away, such as villages and the land transforms into no man's! land.The country is already on the edge of the knife. Natural catastrophe is affecting people's minds and economics as well – more are afraid that its government may fall or get real crisis. Public opinion changes into harsh critics of failed governmental actions. Except of millions of refugees including about 3.5 million of children living in temporary camps with poor hygienic conditions and food supplies, Northern part is facing potential disease. This could return the country back several decades and support any kind of political and military forces eventuelly leading into a state of general destabilization.World support has already received critics from OSN attorney – world is not helping Pakistani people enough although it is the worst catastrophe in their history.IMF decided to take control over Pakistani budget before it was going to offer a loan that was agreed on $10.8 billion in 2008.
