AJK PM announces housing colonies for Kashimiri settlers
Staff Report
LAHORE: Azad Jammu and Kashmir (AJK) Prime Minister Chaudhry Abdul Majeed has announced establishing housing colonies as well as creating job opportunities for Kashmiri immigrants living in Pakistan.
During his maiden public appearance in Lahore on Tuesday at a reception hosted by Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) leader and candidate for AJK Legislative Assembly seat in Lahore Ghulam Mohiyuddin Deewan, he said that he would establish special residential colonies for the refugees of Jammu and Kashmir who have settled throughout the country.
He claimed that the energy crisis could be overcome in the next four years if Pakistani entrepreneurs invested in AJK and took up new hydropower projects.
The AJK prime minister, who is also a senior PPP leader, while inviting the Pakistani industrialists for investing in various sectors in AJK, said that he would give special incentives to investors.
Chaudhry Abdul Majeed announced that he would increase the job quota of refugees from Indian-held Kashmir (IHK) who have settled in Pakistan and also promised to amend the AJK law regarding the upper age limit of applicants aspiring to become a part of various public sector organisations. The AJK prime minister said that he would transform Muzaffarabad into a base camp for the freedom struggle of IHK and would accelerate the pace of freedom activities. He appealed to the people of the rest of the provinces to come to AJK to help Kashmiris in their bid for freedom.
He said, I dont recognise PML-N chief Nawaz Sharif as a real Kashmiri, as he, instead of talking about the Kashmir issue, unduly criticises his opponents, armed forces and intelligence agencies.
Chaudhry Abdul Majeed claimed that slain PPP leader, Benazir Bhutto, brought Nawaz Sharif and his party back into politics through the Charter of Democracy, as the Sharifs were living in Jeddah after signing an agreement with Pervez Musharraf.
The AJK prime minister claimed that he would uphold the rule of law in the Kashmir Valley, besides executing every action strictly on merit.

Chaudhry Abdul Majeed claimed that slain PPP leader, Benazir Bhutto, brought Nawaz Sharif and his party back into politics through the Charter of Democracy, as the Sharifs were living in Jeddah after signing an agreement with Pervez Musharraf.
He said serving on the nonprofit's board could benefit him politically because he did not feel he would be in politics for long due to his homosexuality. "So I just was trying to look towards the future," Postmus said. Upon returning from the trip,

Golden State Liberty: Politics at their Worst: San Bernardino ...
Back in May, we noted the indictment of a former San Bernardino County Supervisor, Paul Biane, on charges of embezzlement, bribery, and conspiracy. The indictment followed a guilty plea on corruption charges by former Supervisor Bill Postmus, who was accused of accepting a $100,000 bribe from land developer Jeff Burum in return for a favorable settlement in a lawsuit brought by Burum against the county. Today's San Bernardino Sun has more of the sordid details of this story. Back in 2002, Burum's company, Colonies Partners LLP, owned 400 acres in Upland, and had requested $25 million from San Bernardino County to pay for flood-control facilities on the property as part of an extension of the 210 freeway. When the county refused, Colonies sued, and in 2006, the Board of Supervisors voted 3-2 in favor of a settlement, awarding the company an astounding $102 million. The vote went against the advice of the county's lawyers, who refused to ratify the settlement and warned Postmus that it was "a gift of public funds" and a breach of fiduciary responsibility to taxpayers. But yea votes from Postmus, Biane, and current Supervisor Gary Ovitt brought the suit to a close. In subsequent years, the district attorney's investigation heated up, and in July 2009 it announced that it was investigating the Colonies settlement. What came out of the subsequent grand jury testimony included the following: Burum befriended Postmus in 2005, and promised him financial support from Colonies for any future business and political projects, in exchange for Postmus' support in the settlement. As the latter's term on the Board of Supervisors drew to a close in late 2006, Burum apparently turned up the pressure. Postmus was told by former union boss and Colonies consultant Jim Erwin that private investigators were following him and digging through his trash. Just prior to November 2006, in which Postmus was running for county assessor, Erwin told him that Burum was preparing to campaign against Measure P (an initiative raising Supervisors' pay), and that the campaign pamphlets would reference Postmus' methamphetamine use and (undeclared) homosexuality, unless a settlement was approved. According to PR consultant Patrick O'Reilly, Burum also prepared anti-Measure P pamphlets targeting Biane, who was having major financial problems at the time. Gary Ovitt's vote was apparently never in doubt.
