The MMA proved themselves totally inept. They did absolutely nothing at all for NWFP, and in fact the whole province deteriorated drastically under their rule. Despite proclaiming themselves as the least corrupt choice, they turned out to be just as, if not more corrupt than the secular parties. So, when you combine extreme corruption with negative results, they totally failed. As far as the law and order situation goes, by supporting the radical elements in society, they actually made it worse. NWFP gets a lot of money from the central government. Where did that money go? They didn't repair roads, build school, hospitals, womens sporting facilites, nothing. My husband came to the US in 2001, and returned to Peshawar in 2004, 2006, and this last December. He tells me that the city didn't used to be the way it is now. In his words, it's turned to rubble.
So yeah, I'm glad they lost their shorts. NWFP needs a government, secular or otherwise, that cares enough about the people to do something OTHER than just line their pockets and take vacations in Dubai and London.
