Donald Trump to Restrict Immigration and Access to the US for 7 Countries [View List]

The newly inaugurated President of the United States, Donald Trump, is now ordering to put limits on the number of refugees entering the country, as well as the number of immigrants. The President has alsoĀ eiterates he will build Mexico wall as he moves to fulfil some of his most controversial pledges.

According to reports by the media, Trump will officially sign executive orders restricting visas and immigration, as well as the entry of refugees, making good on his signature campaign pledges. He also tweeted about the ‘Big Day’ on Twitter.

According to the reports, there are 7 countries which will be the victims of the orders, and it is no surprise that these are Muslim countries. These countries are:

  • Iraq
  • Iran
  • Somalia
  • Sudan
  • Syria
  • Yemen

[Source: Washington Post]

Immigration experts told the newspaper that the orders would stop all admissions of refugees for 120 days, including those fleeing Syria’s civil war, and a 30-day halt to issuing immigrant and non-immigrant visas to people from some countries with Muslim majorities. “It will make America and our society more fearful and less welcoming. And that’s not the American way of being great as a nation,” said Awad, executive director of the Council on American-Islamic Relations.

Earlier, during 2016, the US admitted 10,000 Syrian refugees, after they were forced to leave their homes due to the on-going war in the country. Trump has also called for aĀ “total and complete shutdown of Muslims” entering the US until authorities can better screen those who come into the country.

Trump is being expected to sign executive orders on the so-called sanctuary cities on Thursday, January 26th. He has also vowed to scrap the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals programmes established in 2012 by ex-President Barack Obama.”Many options are being worked through on DACA,” the Post quoted a White House official as saying.

Fast & Secure Fiber Optics Internet to be Part of CPEC

On Tuesday, January 24th, a top military official shared that incoming as well as outgoing internet traffic managed to land in India before it was carried out to its planned destination. Due to this, a possible risk in security for Pakistan can become a major problem in the near-future.

In order to tackle this possible security breach, Maj-Gen Amir Azeem Bajwa is seeking approval for the establishment ofĀ a cross-border optic fibre connectivity network under the Public Sector Development Programme. This was brought to National Assembly Standing Committee on Information Technology’s attention during a brief.

ā€œThe network which brings internet traffic into Pakistan through submarine cables has been developed by a consortium that has Indian companies either as partners or shareholders, which is a serious security concern. We would like to propose a new alternative network system to be set up in Gwadar for the flow of internet traffic,ā€ Director General Special Communications Organisation (SCO) Maj-Gen Amir Azeem Bajwa

ā€œSecurity of CPEC and its related projects is of utmost priority for Pakistan,ā€ Mr Bajwa added. According to the general, the new network will link Pakistan with the outside world through China. This will also reduce Pakistan’s dependence on the submarine cables, which are often damaged by the animals and technical issues.

ā€œHowever, most ministries and divisions are unwilling to adopt the new advanced mechanism and resisting the change. We proposed to the prime minister twice to make it mandatory for all offices to switch to the automated office environment at the earliest,ā€ said IT Minister, Anusha Rahman.

As of now,Ā NA Awais Ahmad Khan Leghari of the PML-N suggested discussing the matter in the National Assembly to emphasise the importance of e-office.

Momentum Tech Conference: Where Ideas Meet Investment!

Looking to launch your startup, raise money and learn about starting a company? Then Momentum Pakistan is the place for you!Ā  The 2-day startup conference and exhibition is a ā€˜must-attendā€ for ā€œiconoclastic doersā€ from around Pakistan who share a common interest to build a strong ecosystem for nurturing innovation and startups in Pakistan. The event will be held on February 6th & 7th 2017 at Expo Centre Karachi.

Momentum Tech Conference Offerings

Momentum Pakistan 2017 is first ever premier gathering of the brightest minds and top entrepreneurs, investors, incubators/accelerators, academic institutions, Mobile network operators, financial institutions, tech companies, government officials and media in Pakistan.Ā  The 2-day exclusive event featuring over 5000 attendees and 175+ startups aims to tap into the massive growth potential of Pakistan by promoting, showcasing and inspiring the young entrepreneurs of Pakistan.Ā  The event focuses on providing top-notch education through keynote speakers, topic-driven panels, fireside chats, Inspirational stories,

The event focuses on providing top-notch education through keynote speakers, topic-driven panels, fireside chats, Inspirational stories, Pitch competition, networking events and last but not the least showcases of the latest innovative products and services from leading local startups.

 

Taking Pakistan towards progress and Prosperity

The startup funding landscape in Pakistan has remained relatively flat with many gaps and challenges being faced by entrepreneurs in the country during the last few years. However recently with improved security profile,Ā  GDP growing at a healthy 4.7 percent, over 35 million 3G and 4G connections, and sprouting accelerators and incubation centers all over the country, the stage is set for investors to look at internet businesses more seriously.

Momentum Tech Conference Pakistan will foster idea generation and dialogue around innovation. Participating startups will have access to training, mentorship, discounted services and funding from local and foreign investors to grow and be launched as successful companies to bring about a tech revolution, build knowledge economy of Pakistan and eventually provide employment for educated youth of the country over the coming decade.

Regulatory Support towards building an aggregated platform

The current policies ā€“ from taxes to business registration to investor protection ā€“ promote an environment that is more opaque than transparent, ultimately discouraging the startup culture. We believe collaboration among all stakeholders is key.

Thus ā€˜one-windowā€™ facility where all legal registration, memberships, and taxations could be conducted in a single day would encourage new, small startups and truly bring about a real and systemic change for Pakistan. Hence in order to cultivate the entrepreneurial eco-system; leading government regulators such as State Bank of Pakistan, Pakistan Telecommunication Authority and Security and Exchange commission of Pakistan will support us for the event.

Access to Global Support Services

Momentum Pakistan is excited to partner with global technology giants such as Amazon, IBM, Microsoft, Acumen and Enclude. The participating startups at Momentum will now have access to programmes and assistance from our strategic partners and Amazon web services credit and Microsoft Azure cloud services for qualifying startups.

Commenting on this recent development, Syed Amir Jafri, Momentum Pakistanā€™s Co-founder and CEO said, ā€œWe are excited to bring these partnerships and support from Silicon valley entrepreneurs to Pakistan to increase global support to Pakistani startups. Our strategic partnership will help leading startups working on innovative products and services succeed within and outside Pakistanā€.

Momentum Pakistan has its work cut out, for it strives to build an ecosystem to overcome barriers to innovation. Such an ecosystem would reward those displaying creative confidence, facilitate partnerships, help ideas and technologies reach the market, and encourage young professionals to set up their own business ventures to turn Pakistan into a developed and prosperous country.

Come and meet with people; who strive to change the world with entrepreneurship.

Top 5 Polluted Cities of Pakistan [View List]

It’s no surprise for the citizens of Pakistan to be travelling on the streets with trash burning on the side of the road (sometimes in the middle) under a tree, or a rickshaw or truck with blackish fumes comes out of its exhaust or smokes coming out of the factories and local workshops.

However, all of these factors add on to the country’s major problem, pollution. With heavy and deadly smogs surrounding every man, woman, and child of the city, endangering their lives and risking them to health concerns, there are a few cities in Pakistan with massive amounts of pollution in the air and on the streets.

Here’s a list of the most polluted cities in Pakistan:

1. Peshawar

2. Rawalpindi

3. Karachi

4. Lahore

5. Islamabad

According to the WHO, only 1 in 10 people breathes safe and clean air. In order to combat such a problem, we must first be able to understand the scope and impact of air pollution. 56% of the cities and towns being monitored have an average air pollution level 3.5-times more than what is set by WHO. 87% of the deaths from air pollution also happen in most low and middle-income countries.

Between, 2008 and 2013, pollution levels around the globe increased by 8%, higherĀ than any other time period in the history of the world.

Audi Pakistan Plans to Launch 3 Models in 2017

Audi Pakistan is ready to take drivers aback with the launching of not 1, not 2, but 3 models in 2017! The German distributor already unveiled the A3 at a remarkable price, which won the hearts of many Pakistanis throughout the country, given that the international brand name is famously known.

Separate reflectors in the lower section of the rear apron, which is painted in the body colour, emphasise the width.

The Audi A5 is expected to be launched in the third quarter of 2017.

Audi Q5

The Audi Q5 is an SUV with a versatileĀ range of engines and a dynamic look! The SUV has 3-engines to launch from, but Audi will have to be careful in picking which engine is right for Pakistani drivers. If the company decides to launch the 2.0L diesel engine, it will take sales by surprise as it’s a decent balance of frugality and has a nice pace. Whereas, the 3.0L diesel engine is a good way to go about until the SQ5 is to arrive. Audi Pakistan will be announcing its tariff in the third quarter of 2017.

Ā Audi Q2

Although Audi is known to bring in luxurious cars, the company is trying to provide affordable vehicles into the market,Ā  by offering them a low-end car with a few compromises on power and luxuries. To provide a pocket-friendly solution, Audi will be launching the Q2,Ā a 1.0L Turbocharged FWD Q2 in the first quarter of 2017.

Raees Movie Review: Mahira Khan’s Bollywood Debut Has Blockbuster Written All Over it!

The moment we all have been waiting for is finally here! RaeesĀ is all set to hit the cinemas today and early reviews have started pouring in about Mahira Khan’s big BollywoodĀ debut! Of course, movie-buffs who have seen the film can not keep calm and have taken to Twitter to make others envious.

The action-crime thriller has been set in Gujrat, dating back to the 1980’s.

Shah Rukh Khan plays the role of a noble-hearted gangster, Raees who has an illegal business, only to help the needy!

Reviews reveal that the Bollywood Badshah has left no stone unturned to portray his rowdy avatar.

SRK’s acting was so power-packed that it even reminded many of his old performances.

Our Pakistani Queen plays SRK’s love interest and people are loving their couple.

However, Ā it is Nawazuddin Siddiqui who is stealing the thunder of both the Khans.

As a determined, obstinate policeman, he has wowed the critics and proved he is a big asset to the plot.

Seems like SRK & Nawaz’s chemistry have worked its magic in the movie!

Read what Bollywood publications have to say aboutĀ Raees!

While director Rahul Dholakia is being lauded for his cinematic endeavor, SRK and Nawaz have been given a thumbs up for their stellar performances, Mahira Khan’s acting is being bashed by many Bollywood critics.

Such harsh reviews hint they Indian critics are probably being biased towards our Humsafar haseena, who has proved her mettle countless times in the entertainment industry!

Mahira Khan is Being Treated Like an Untouchable by Raees Producers: Atiqa Odho

Mahira Khan was up and about in Dubai, promoting her dream debut Raees, starring Bollywood Badshah, Shah Rukh Khan! She has certainly stolen the spotlight in Pakistan’s media circuit and her fans are super excited for her upcoming Indian movie.

Apparently, the filmmakers have planned a solo spree ofĀ Raees’s promotions for MK. Ā Seems like she was sidelinedĀ on purpose and did not join SRK in Dubai to promote their mutual blockbuster!

šŸ¦„ #Raees #mahirakhan #srk

A post shared by Mahira Khan (@mahirahkhan) on

The veteran television actress, Atiqa Odho was amongst the first to notice this and took to Instagram to protest regarding the matter!

I’m proud of how beautiful you look in all the Raees songs & promos but am upset that the producers are treating you like an untouchable and giving into pressure from extremist groups in India.

Read Odho’s full letter to Mahira in this post!

My Dearest Mahira, I just wish you had been included in the Dubai press meet and sat on the stage with SRK and the rest of the cast. Having encouraged you to try your luck in India, I'm proud of how beautiful you look in all the Raees songs & promos but am upset that the producers are treating you like an untouchable and giving into pressure from extremist groups in India. Artists should always stand united against terrorists in any country. I pray your movie is a big hit and you shine like the super star that you are. Your fellow artists in Pakistan stand by your side. Atiqa Odho #mahirakhan #raees #shahrukhkhan #indopakfilms #hipinpakistan #divamagazinepakistan #hellopakistan #upapakistan #actpakistan #actors

A post shared by Atiqa Odho (@atiqaodhoofficial) on

What is more, Atiqa also gave an interview to Dawn and expressed her remorse on how both Fawad and Mahira have been barred from working in Bollywood!

It’s a shame that Mahira Khan and Fawad Khan are unable to go back to work in India or unable to promote upcoming projects due to extremists attacking them and their good image there

I request the Indian government to stop such people from using actors as soft targets to play their dirty politics on

It is apparent that Atiqa Odho is quite concerned for both the Pakistani Khans, whom she starred with in the record-breaking drama, Humsafar!

Mobile Shopkeepers Arrested for Tampering IMEI Numbers in Karachi

Sindh Police responded to a tip that shopkeeps were allegedly changing the IMEI numbers on handsets. Ā The police conducted a raid in Saddar on Monday, 23rd January, and arrested two shopkeepers for selling stolen handsets after trying to rig the sets by changing the IMEI numbers.

The IMEI number is used by a GSM network to identify valid devices and therefore can be used for stopping a stolen phone from accessing that network. For example, if a mobile phone is stolen, the owner can call his or her network provider and instruct them to “blacklist” the phone using its IMEI number.

The shopkeepers that were arrested were allegedly in the business of changing the IMEIs of snatched and blocked phones for a mere amount of Rs. 3,000 that were later sold in the market. This raid wasĀ overlooked byĀ Special Investigation Unit (SIU) of Sindh Police, Citizens-Police Liaison Committee (CPLC).

“They are facilitators of criminals and cases under the Anti-Terrorism Act (ATC) will be registered against them” Ā ā€“ Farooq Awan,Ā Senior Superintendent of Police

Ā The department dispatched 5 police officers dressed as civilians to catch the culprits live in action. These raids will help bring reduction to street crimes and will help in returning stolen good to the rightful owners.Ā The Sindh Chief Minister, Murad Ali Shah, has also ordered a crackdown against the sale and purchase of second-hand mobile phones available in the market.
