I thought Mush-a-reef was resigning?

[Mr. Morals]

Musharraf is resigning from his Army post and retiring from the Army but is continuing on as a civilian president.

I fear he won't last long once he cashiers his military uniform. His position as Army Chief of Staff gives him a closer eye on the Pakistani military and prevents a coup d'etat against him from radical elements of the Army as well as the ISI.
