Honestly, think about it, when George Bush or Stephen Harper walk into a room, do they expect anyone to bow? No. These leaders view their fellow citizens as equals -well more or less-.
Whereas in countries such as Pakistan and India, where there is an active caste system, there is a natural belief that the upper class is and should be entitled and are better than everyone. The poor, keeping in mind are uneducated and in most cases illiterate, accept this and live by it.
I hope to not offend anyone, but this is just what I had noticed when I had visited. I am not a Pakistani, so I can't say I know all of the dynamics of the culture and/or government. But, no one, Pakistani or otherwise, can see what is happening in that country and refer to it as being anything other than exploitive.
Bhutto herself was educated at Oxford, certainly she was well acquainted with first-world dynamics and equality...only problem was, she was not interested.
