Interesting thoughts on disability out of Pakistan

I confess...My first thought of Pakistan..."Isn't that where Bin Laden is?"

Yes...perhaps...but also brothers and sisters battling life out:

DAWN.COM | Pakistan | Disabled by society: "Disability is being redefined in a social rather than a physiological context. Sociologists and human rights activists now place the onus on society to make the necessary structural changes for enabling persons with disabilities to realise their full potential and make a contribution to the state."
