"Raja sahib is trying to make an album."
"What? A video?"
"A photo album dedicated to the time he is the Prime Minister."
"Ah I see, so the quicker this is filled the better for the fulfilment of his objective."
"Don't be facetious. I would like to ask what you would do if President
Zardari was to make you the Prime Minister of this country?"
"I can't be made Prime Minister, I don't have the necessary qualifications."
"Excuse me?"
"OK, President Zardari can make whoever he wants the Prime Minister of this country today, but surely some qualifications are required, for example, complete loyalty to him personally and I really do not qualify."
"Good point, but the question was what if?"
"OK, if I am made Prime Minister the first thing I would do is to transfer all my belongings to the Prime Minister House, I like that house, and then issue a directive to investigate corruption and..."
"Two things - you will be able to move within the day but you can issue all the directives you want but the implementation would rest with Rehman Malik."
"OK, so the President has checks and balances even for die-hard Zardis."
"Yes, he didn't get where he is by being too trusting other than with some family members."
"Speaking of family members Raja Pervez Ashraf had two very important visitors yesterday and he directed the official news agency to take his photographs with these two less than 24 hours before the court deadline for implementing the NRO judgement expired."
"Yes I know, Bilawal Bhutto Zardari and Asifa Bhutto Zardari."
"Gilani sahib had got a visit only from Bilawal BZ while Asifa BZ tweeted her support rather than undertook the visit herself."
"Discrimination..."
"Don't be facetious, anyway as I said before the Raja is busy making the album and it is nearly reached its end."
"How come? Did he tear up some pages?"
"Don't be facetious."
"Well, he hasn't been in the post long enough and he hasn't really gone on foreign tours, umra and a day long trip to Kabul hardly merits more than three to four pictures."
"Ah yes, but if you include him chairing all these meetings, a meeting a day, and sitting next to the President while co-chairing the CEC meetings the album is full my friend."
