UK to replicate CM Maryam’s ‘Suthra Punjab’ model: BBC

[Blain2]

Karachi is being destroyed with clear collusion b/w MQM, PPP and PMLN. As Karachi goes down, Lahore and interior Sindh would become bigger business centers.MQM will get its cut as always.

I don't think there is any collusion. Karachi is being destroyed because none of them can get on the same page. BTW, things were no different with PTI running the center and Sind/Karachi with PPP, or when PML ran the center with MQM/PPP in Karachi/Sind.

Lahore and interior Sind can never be as big as Karachi unless Gwadar and Pasni were used to their potential and trade curtailed from Karachi.

Karachi and its citizenry are like a force of nature that cannot be discounted. It is unfortunate that a city that could increase its output by 2x-3x to the national economy is being hemorrhaged on account of petty provincialism.

KMC/Sind Govt need to sort this out. The poor citizens are suffering while the two bicker.

That is incorrect - if anything it is a mix of KMC, Cantonments, DHA and then Sindh govt

Th whole mishmash needs to be totally reworked, top to bottom, and left to right, and then some more.

But ain't nobody got da time fer dat!

Nobody will or wants to. The amount of corruption conducted by individuals in EVERY one of these organizations exists because of these fiefdoms.
You think they’ll give this up?

Now please multiply that state of affairs by about 10E10 times, and apply it to all of Pakistan. What a perfectly concise description of not just Karachi, but ALL of Pakistan.

Nobody will give that up, which is why I say Pakistan (and Karachi of course) is exactly what its people have worked hard to make it how they want it.

True, however Cantt, DHA are still relatively cleaner than the rest of the city which falls under the KMC and Sind Govt responsibility.

Pakistan should sue the UK government for IP on Lady Maryam.

Good news about Pakistan, and the usual suspects are crying.

When was the last time you went to Pakistan? Is it the prime example of a pristine nation?

 

[safriz]

North Korea also copying the Punjab police model of abducting political opponents, and fake encounters.
Maryam Nawaz Punjab government leading the world in so many ways.

Obviously the poor areas are going to look like shit.

That's how it is anywhere in the world.

We judge progress by the infrastructure, city centres and quality of life for the affluent and middle classes in the suburbs.

 

[Starlord]

So much safai happen in Pakistan, the Qaumi Khazan might be the cleanest in all of Pakistan. Road/city ki safai ke sath sath kuch character aur imaan ki safai bhi ager Pakistani's ker len tu kia baat ho.

Poor areas? My friend, I am quite familiar with the affluent areas of Islamabad since I have a base there and I can assure you that there are huge issues (poorly maintained and litter). Even outside the homes of ex generals there are overflown dumping sites. Residential areas aside wonder into any markaz and you'll see trash everywhere. Whether you're in blue area or jinnah super it's all the same. The quality of the west's waste management and maintenance of frequented areas exceeds well beyond ours.

If you want to point towards Lahore, Lahore's DHA reeks of sewage. I could smell it on the main roads. Even then you'll see empty plots littered with garbage or walking through a typical markaz within said DHA you'll see chipped concrete, bits and pieces of construction materials randomly thrown around.

Blind positivity is a dangerous thing we should strive for perfection so that nobody can say anything bad about our country's image.

One more thing to add, even Kohsar Market is in tatters and the markaz's near it are even worse. We can't say anything when you have places like Oxford Street.

Having lived in DHA with regular commutes to Cantt areas - I disagree based on personal experience. There are non DHA and Cantt areas including both residential and commercial areas which are cleaner than many areas of Cantt and DHA

Will this "independent research" work?

برمنگھم کی گلیاں صاف رکھنے کے لیے پنجاب ویسٹ اتھارٹی کے مشورے کیسے کام آئے - BBC News اردو

جب پنجاب ویسٹ اتھارٹی نے برمنگھم کمیونٹی کے آرگنائزرز سے آن لائن رابطوں کے پلیٹ فارم ’ٹیمز‘ پر بات چیت شروع کی تو ہدف واضح تھا کہ ایسا تسلیم شدہ ماڈل شیئر کیا جائے، جس نے پاکستان میں گلی محلوں کا نقشہ بدل کر رکھ دیا ہو۔

Where does it say the UK is going to replicate Maryam Bibi's model. It just talks about one volunteer in Birmingham, who is probably a Patwari himself, having an online session with someone in Punjab.

There is a reason why this was not published in English. It would have immediately have been taken down and the "reporter", who is also probably a Patwaran , been fired.
