On 20th December, Hyundai and Nishat mutually held an occasion to unveil 3 of the models they are bringing to the country.

The H-1 has been awarded “Australia’s best cars awards” in the people mover category by the Australian automobile association for two years in a row.

The van comes with twin swing gate at the rear while the wagon is equipped with standard hatch-style door. Drivers can use the interior space more practically with the seat variation feature.

Clever design allows the seats to be tipped up, slid or reclined. Whatever the circumstances, there’s certain to be a combination to suit your requirements. (Application of this seating combination may vary according to countries).

Baaghi Drama on Urdu1: Kanwal Breaks Up With Shehryaar

Saba Qamar continues to astonish and leave people in aghast with her brilliant acting in the hit drama, Baaghi. Facing all the criticism, and nil-support from her akin, Kanwal continues to fight for her family and her son.

This episode opened up to devastating news: Kanwal breaking up with Shehryaar!

Although Shehryaar was very concerned about Kanwal and kept on asking her what was bothering her, the depressed starlet said “meri jaan chor do! Mujhay jeenay do!” and parted their ways.

Moving forward, we saw Fauzia’s elder brother asking her for loan of Rs. 7-8 lacs to help him set up a mobile phone shop in the city. In this way, he will be able to support his family too, and will pay back to his sister once he generates enough revenue.

While Shehryaar was still not over the heartbreak, Kanwal aired a video on her fan page, claiming:

Zindagi may kuch loug sirf ap ka sukoon tabah karnay kay liye hotay hain. So… un lougon ka ap ki zindagi say chalay jana hi behtar hota hay.

This message was for the successful businessman, who, in no time, got to know that Kanwal was lying and was hiding something for sure. So he decided to meet her and drove to Rayyan’s place, where he learned that Kanwal had left his place quite some time ago and has shifted to a new house.

Shehryaar’s mother wants him to tie the knot with another girl.

At the end of the episode, Fauzia’s bhabi told her that there was a wedding in their village, and if Fauzia wishes to, she can come alongside her and meet her son in disguise. Fauzia, without giving any second thought, agrees to go with her.

The episode closed to a glimpse of that wedding, where the poor mother’s son was seen crying on Abid’s lap, and this broke Fauzia into a million pieces, but being helpless, she decided to walk away.

The jaw-dropping acting of Saba Qamar, blended with Osman Khalid Butt’s amazing dialogue delivery, makes this drama worth watching and leaves the audience asking for more.

Most Favorite Mobile Phones of Pakistanis in 2017

You hardly find a person today not hooked to his or her phone. It has become more than a necessity. You need it for everything – LITERALLY!

But here’s the question:

What do Pakistanis prefer more: A smartphone or a feature phone?

While it’s quite difficult to come to a conclusion right away, but if we see the Google Search resuls, the most favorite phone selected by Pakistanis in 2017 can be quite a surprise.

Quite hard to believe, but instead of choosing a classy Samsung or an Apple’s iPhone, Pakistanis opted for a phone they got a hang of after more than a decade.

Here’s what Google Trends revealed about most searched smartphones by Pakistanis!

NOKIA 3310

These results were derived from Google Trends and now that we think of it, it is believable.
There was a separate era for Nokia 3310, when Pakistanis enjoyed this phone thoroughly and didn’t miss a single chance to show it off. When they got a chance to do that again after 12 years, they had to take it up!

Looking at Google’s search results, the renovated Nokia 3310 actually stands as one of the most favorite device for Pakistanis in 2017. Not only in Pakistan, Nokia regained its popularity with this newly launched handset worldwide. The search shows this phone on number 6th ranking, but Pakistan stands as the most prominent country to have fallen in love with it all over again.

However, Google search does not show if it’s popularity also lead to an increase in sales or not. But if we focus on the data alone, it’s quite evident that people showed interest and thus have purchased it too.

OPPO F5

Other than Nokia, Chinese cellular brand – Oppo – took the second place in the most search phone brands by Pakistanis. Their Flagship F5 took the lead in the run as compared to the other handsets under the brand.

Since this got released in October – months after Nokia 3310 – it took the second position instead.

NOKIA 6

Another popular handset by Nokia secured the third position in the search results. This time, it is their first Android smartphone – Nokia 6.

Pakistan is one of the 4 countries to have searched for this phone in Google the most. Other countries are Nepal, India, and Sri Lanka.

SAMSUNG S8

On the fourth position stood the latest Samsung Galaxy S8 as one of the most favorite and top searched phones by Pakistanis in 2017.

IPHONE 8

Last but not the least, Pakistanis showed more interest in iPhone 8 as compared to iPhone X and thus, iPhone 8 was revealed as the 5th most favorite of the smartphone handsets for Pakistanis.

With so many new smartphones coming up next year, let’s see how this list changes for us in 2018.

Facebook Will Send an Alert When You Appear In Photos You’re Not Tagged In!

Facebook literally improves and evolves on a daily basis.

The social media giant is not satisfied until the operations are running smooth and the users are having an incredible experience using their service.

With the latest feature rolled out on the last Tuesday, Facebook is ready with some great news!

The website users will be notified if someone uploads a photo of them – without even tagging them. The ‘facial recognition technology’ will be put into use to release this feature.

Facebook will, however, request for the user’s consent to keep a facial template to use be able to use this feature.

Since Facebook also believes in transparency and privacy, they initially wanted to introduce this feature as an option. Later, they decided that most of the people would be interested in finding out if their pictures are being used without their knowledge.

The feature is currently in its testing phase and will not be available to users in Canada and the European Union.

Also, there are stricter rules and regulations about privacy in those jurisdictions. However, Facebook is hopeful about offering this great feature there someday.

Not only Facebook, but other tech giants also use facial recognition technology for various functions. In September, Apple Inc featured its latest handset – the new iPhone X – which also uses the facial recognition technology to unlock the device using the ‘Face Detection’ feature.

The same technology will be used by Facebook to notify users if other their picture is uploaded elsewhere or is set as a profile picture by another user. The company believes, this step might help with reducing impersonations.

This isn’t the first time Facebook will be using the facial recognition technology. It was first used in 2010 with the ‘tagging’ feature, where by clicking on a face you get a list of names based on facial recognition to tag. This feature is also optional.

Once you choose to use that feature, Facebook creates a template to recognize your facial features analyzing pixels from your photos that you are already tagged in. The comparison is made with the new images to find the similarities with the template.

According to Rob Sherman, the Deputy Chief Privacy Officer,

“Facebook deletes the template of anyone who then opts out”.

This new feature released by Facebook is definitely going to be useful for a lot of people – especially for those who have been into trouble because of impersonation before.

Opt in and you will get notifications from Facebook if it detects your picture uploaded elsewhere. The company is also planning to add an “on/off” switch to allow users control this feature as they like.

Sherman also added, “We thought it was important to have a really straightforward way of controlling facial recognition technology.”

Let’s see when we have this feature available in Pakistan so we can say goodbye to fake identities and troubles associated with it.

Saudi Arabia Announces New Type of Visa

The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia receives millions of Muslim visitors every year for the holy pilgrimages of Hajj and Umrah from across the world. However, the KSA is now moving towards a major shift by broadening its tourism sector.

Surprisingly, the country will now begin issuing tourist visas in the coming first quarter of 2018. Under Prince Sultan, the Kingdom is preparing itself for major structural, economic and social reforms.

As per Khaleej Times, the Prince Sultan bin Salman bin Abdulaziz has mentioned,

“All government approvals are in place for the launch of electronic visas in the year 2018. All nationals whose countries allow their citizens to visit will be granted the tourist visas.”

The Saudi Commission for Tourism and National Heritage stated,

“We are now just preparing the regulations – who is eligible for the visas and how to obtain them”

The radical shift in policy comes after the Crown Prince seeks to reduce the country’s dependency on Oil. Currently, a limited number of tourist visas are granted to specific nationalities. These applications require long processes and visitors have to follow various restrictions such as staying at designated hotels and traveling through an accredited company.

The price of the new visa has not yet been settled but Prince Sultan mentions,

 

“The price will be as low as possible because we believe the cumulative economic impact is greater than the cash from the visa.”

Honda Set To Unveil New Car to Fight Toyota Prius

While Honda flaunts quite a reputation for its quality and fuel economy, it has never raised the game when it comes to touting hybrid and electric automobiles.

It’s rival Toyota has always managed to outshine the brand but it seems Honda will not admit defeat!

The Japanse giant is all set to revive its iconic car ‘Insight yet again, the same name Honda has been using for its previous slow-selling hybrid.

The first-generation Honda Insight was the first mass-market hybrid sold. However, with its sci-fi styling, a cramped two-seat layout, it failed to drive a demand from the market.

The second-generation Insight was a more practical five-door hatchback and was promoted as a cheaper substitute to the Toyota Prius.

However, the car was never marketed as fabulously as Toyota’s hybrid behemoth and now Honda’s rival vehicle is the best selling hybrid in the world.

But will the third time be the charm?

Competing with Toyota Prius, the upcoming Insight is being rolled as a “prototype” at the Detroit Auto Show.

According to Honda:

  • The new Insight will offer competitive fuel economy
  • While the fuel economy of the Prius Eco is 56,  the standard model gets 52 mpg

By the end of next year, the brand will be selling hydrogen fuel cell, battery-electric, and plug-in hybrid versions of the Clarity, the new Insight, and a new version of the Accord Hybrid.

UAE Clears the Air About Visa Suspension for Pakistanis

Update: News about Pakistanis being rejected for UAE visas made quite a buzz, however, it seems like this was just a rumor for dampening the festivities.

The General Directorate of Residency and Foreigners Affairs (GDRFA) of Dubai have denied these rumors. According to Khaleej Times, the GDRFA mentions,

“Visitors from Pakistan are welcome to enter Dubai after obtaining a visa”

UAE officials have asked visitors not to fall for any rumors and to verify any news they receive from UAE government agencies.

 


The biggest celebration welcoming 2018 is just around the corner, every year thousands of people travel to top destinations such as Dubai in order to celebrate New Year’s Eve.

For Pakistanis the closest place is Dubai, every travel enthusiast dreams of welcoming the New Year’s overlooking the magnificent fireworks display at the Burj Al Khalifa.

However, this time around it seems Pakistanis wanting to travel to Dubai for the new year will have to hold off their plans.

The Travel Agents Association of Pakistan (TAAP) on Monday has reported that the UAE government has been rejecting visit visa applications from Pakistanis and travel agents have been asked to stop applying until further instructions are given.

According to Chairman of the Travel Agents Association Naeem Sharif, 

“No particular details have been provided for the visa rejection.”

300,000 Pakistanis have already reached Dubai for the New Years celebrations, but the rest are surely in for a disappointment. The restrictions have been imposed only for Pakistanis as a large number have already gone on visit visa.

Vice Chairman Travel Agents Association, Nadeem Sharif also mentioned that the situation is a temporary arrangement and he thinks visas will be issued after 1st Jan as New Years celebrations would be over.

Bitcoin Cash’s Value Rises as Bitcoin Crashes!

There’s a brief crash in Bitcoin as the Coinbase initiated Bitcoin cash trade!

The Coinbase could only continue the trade for four minutes before the crash was triggered and the operation was immediately halted.

Another rise in the price encouraged heavy withdrawals that ended in the trading to halt. The prices amplified by more than 10% in just an hour on Wednesday morning.

BITCOIN CASH ON THE RISE!

The crash appeared when Coinbase, the largest and most significant cryptocurrency exchanges in the world, initiated the trading of alternative Bitcoin Cash.

Arther Hayes, the Chief Executive at Bitcoin-derivatives exchange Bitmex, added a statement in the same regard saying:

“It seems as if Bitcoin Cash being added to Coinbase has caused a rotation from Bitcoin into Bitcoin Cash. The speculation now is that if you can buy on Coinbase, it’ll add to this particular altcoin.”

However, Coinbase could only carry the trading operations for our minutes live on GDAX after which it was stopped. It stated that the new orders will not be entertained and the unfilled orders will also be expunged.

They didn’t reveal the reason behind the halt but stated that it would last until 9 a.m. PST. According to the exchange’s order book, the prices for the trading reached as high as $9,500 before it was stopped.

Call it a rival or an alternative but Bitcoin Cash has been spun out of Bitcoin only – during last August.

This rival cryptocurrency was designed to boost the number of transactions in this regard.

There was an increase in this rival cryptocurrency recently by 47% at $3,246.07 and the increase in Bitcoin cash was by ten folds since its debut.

On the whole, Bitcoin experienced a slump and dropped to $15,500 from $17,760, according to CoinDesk. Recently, it was at $16,650.

Amid the recent crash, a key cryptocurrency exchange revealed that the transaction of bitcoins isn’t possible.

Gemini, another famous and significant exchange co-owned by Cameron and Tyler Winklevoss, said in a statement posted to Twitter that the only reason they can’t offer the process transaction is that of the problems with blockchain.

“BTC deposits and withdrawals are temporarily unavailable due to an extreme delay in block mining on the Bitcoin Network. All customers assets remain secure.”

It took around 15 minutes for this outage to get resolved.

Since the increase in value, the trading volumes also surged leading to the so-called brownouts that cause the Bitcoin exchanges to suffer.

It is important to take note of the Gemini’s outage because the bitcoin prices it trades on are the sole reference for future transactions by Cboe Global Markets.
