Hundreds of thousands turn out to see Pakistan's rising son - Asia - World - The Independent

Five years after the assassination of Pakistan's former Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto, her son and political heir has outlined his vision for the country in a speech his supporters claimed marked the launch of his own career in politics. Critics said it underscored the enduring presence of dynastic politics, more than 65 years after the creation of Pakistan.

More than 200,000 party workers and supporters gathered at the Bhutto family mausoleum near Larkana in the southern Pakistani province of Sindh to hear 24-year-old Bilawal Bhutto Zardari deliver his first major political address. Security was reportedly very tight and more than 15,000 police were on duty as the Oxford University graduate and other leaders of the Pakistan People's Party (PPP) addressed the crowds, and paid emotional tributes to the late Ms Bhutto.

According to a "close friend" of Bilawal, English is his first language, but he can speak Urdu and Arabic in addition.

Bilawal Bhutto is No Rahul Gandhi - India Real Time - WSJ

Bilawal Bhutto Zardari, who made his first major political speech Thursday in Pakistan, appears a much more eager politician than Rahul Gandhi.

Good comparision by WSJ between Rahul Gandhi and Bilawal. Bilawal's urdu may be bad but atleast he had shown the intent of becoming full fledged politician, he even took on the judiciary on his very first public speech, unfortunately Rahul Gandhi mostly stays silent on any controversial issue.
