THE WATER CAR SCAM- Prof Atta-ur-Rahman
FEEDBACK
This is Action research Forum of public wisdom;
The author has done analytical postmortem of the entire ‘water car’ scam which was fallen of the cough. Had that been before the GEO was misused for portraying absurdities on the cost of GEO trustworthiness, it was state-of-the art ‘DOUBLE SHAH’ with share of journalism. Thanks Dr. Atta-ur-Rehman.
Before the main show was over of ‘water car’ on GEO as over excited so journalism illustration, this forum reacted and in return the upstart journalist in question responded by impolite email as feudalist do. The scam wrapped up certain scientists online instantly with overwhelming pluses and minuses, but Dr. Atta-ur-Rehman abstained journalist argumentum, who harsh in that show performing inquest not quest. Nevertheless, the science and technology is based on rationality (not whims of heart of ‘pendu mulla’) and thanks to global wisdom that nuke controls are not in hands of such shallow technologist who dream during the dyaylight.

The forum instantly pointed out certain other ill reporting; by Kidwai of DAWN long back, “MEEM SEY MUGHA TECHNOLOGY” by NED students breeding technology revolution, another example, auto workshop in late 80s proclaimed car manufacturing in rudimentary mechanical workshop, that scam had cost millions.
As proclaimed, the so-called journalism is a brand to feed wisdom to Pakistan leadership to resolve their differences as arbitrator, clandestinely, politics monger and now new feather financial scam monger. Like child he thinks miracle is under his thumb. Later on Dr. Pervaiz Hoodbhoy commentary on the same issue appeared on link:
Who got to learn lesson the GEO channel controllers or the excited journalism for incapabilties associated with GEO who abused time and reputation of mother organization, for poor morals and never apologized, master of all, and zeroised the first principle of journalism if ever knew. The GEO should present well groomed and matured journalism instead of unmonitored garbage.

The water car scam

From Print Edition
The national press has recently been full of stories of how a Pakistan “engineer” Agha Waqar Ahmad has developed a ‘water kit’ that allows cars to be run on pure distilled water without any other external energy source. Agha Waqar has no engineering degree but is believed to have received a diploma from a polytechnic in Khairpur. The gentleman demonstrated a car that he claimed did not need petrol, CNG, solar energy or any other external source of energy but only needed pure distilled water for it to run continuously without any difficulty. He claimed to have driven himself from Hyderabad to Karachi without any problems.
