Hi...

I'm from Lahore. It was really nice to come across someone from the Bangladeshi anti-capitalist movement.

Cheers...

Welcome!

I also live in Australia but I'm of English and Danish descent

I was just reading about Lahore, in Tariq Ali's book Street Fighting Years, how there used to be a big leftist movement in Lahore. And how, before partition, that Lahore was extremely multicultural and full of life. How is it now? How is the leftist movement in Lahore and Pakistan, in general?

There's another member called viva le revolution here who is from Lahore as well I think. Perhaps you could contact him though he hasn't been posting much recently.

Thanks.

I'll get in touch with him.

I also met a couple of local communists. Apparently, there's a whole revolutionary party here, which is quite active.

And the corporate-controlled media never told us!

Maynard, thanks for the post.

Yes, from what I've read, there used to be a very strong leftist movement, until military repression brought it down.

The ruling class here has been very severe in its repression of the revolutionary Left. They've used everything at their disposal, from military to organised religion.

I'm currently in touch with a few members of the CMKP, even though I'm not a member.

You asked a lot of questions, and I really can't answer them all like this.... :rolleyes:

I'll be in touch with you later.

Hi, my Pakistani friend! :D

I have not been in Pakistan for some time. I have family in Pakistan. I do love Lahore, and I do miss the place...

Cheers
