I am indebted to scores of people who inspired, encouraged and supported me to write these columns which appeared in daily Khaleej Times, Dubai from 2007 to 2014. Mr. Right’s character was created to interpret in a light-hearted vein my abstract thoughts about political happenings in Pakistan. I am thankful to Rashid Butt, veteran journalist and publisher of this anthology, for its exquisite production. I have no words to express my gratitude to Patrick Michael, the former Executive Editor of the newspaper, for writing the preface.
My thanks are due to many other colleagues and friends whose words of encouragement were always a source of strength for me. They included Neville Parker, Zahid Mukhtar, Ali Ishrati, Jamil Akhtar, Ishtiaq Ali Mehkri, Khan Muhammad and Syed Yousuf Imam of KT and Iqbal Maladwala and Farrukh Murad, partners of my political satire show on ARY One World News TV Channel in Dubai. I am thankful to my daughters Nudrat Nauman and Sitwat Rizvi and son Salim Rizvi
