This 8 Year Old Boy Is The Richest YouTuber of 2019

Highest Paid YouTuber Ryan Kaji

Being deemed a celebrity typically means you worked in the industry as either an actor, musician, or pro athlete. However, social media has changed how the world consumes entertainment.

The various mediums, such as YouTube, Twitch, Instagram, and other apps have created a sub-culture of influencers who have risen up as some of today’s biggest stars.

One such ‘celeb’ who has broken all records is an eight-year-old Ryan Kaji who earned the US $ 26 million in 2019 on his YouTube channel, making him the highest-paid creator on the platform!

According to a list published Wednesday by Forbes magazine, Ryan Kaji is the highest-paid YouTuber.

https://youtu.be/khI25WLn9FU

Kaji, whose real name is Ryan Guan, was already the video platform’s highest earner in 2018, with US$22 million, according to Forbes.

His channel “Ryan’s World,” launched in 2015 by Ryan’s parents, is only three years old but already has 22.9 million subscribers.

Initially called “Ryan ToysReview,” the channel mostly consisted of “unboxing” videos – videos of the young star opening boxes of toys and playing with them.

Furthermore, several of the videos racked up more than one billion views, and the channel has received almost 35 billion views since its creation, according to data from the analytics website Social Blade.

Ryan’s World brand has partnerships and products with Colgate, Nickelodeon, Bonkers Toys, Roku, and Walmart.

With dropping temperatures in the city, the natural gas crisis has worsened in Karachi. The industrial sector might stop its activities due to the shortage of gas. Industries located in the SITE Area, North Karachi Industrial Area, SITE Super Highway, and Korangi are severely affected by the gas shortage.

Also, the CNG sector has been hit by the crisis and CNG stations were ordered to remain closed for 66 consecutive hours, from Tuesday 2 pm till Friday December 20th, at 8 am. The CNG outage has added to the misery of the citizens’ lives, as public transport is not easily available due to a shortage of fuel and taxi or rikshaws have double their fares.

Meanwhile, the Sui Southern Gas Company (SSGC) has given any valid reason behind the severe gas crisis. However, SSGC has issued a notice stating that two new gas pipelines will be operational at the start of 2020 that will be helpful in reducing the shortage of natural gas in Sindh, especially in Karachi.

Karachi has been experiencing water and electricity shortages because of the annual routine maintenance. The citizens are faced with 12 to 24 hours of no supply of electricity and water. Gas load shedding and the shortage is an added burden on a day to day life that needs to be fixed by proper measures. The areas affected by Gas load-shedding include Nazimabad, Malir, Federal B Areas and North district of Karachi. What measures do you think the government should take to overcome the gas shortage?

Karachi: Sindh Assembly Grants Rights to Women in Agriculture by Passing a Historic Law

Sindh Assembly Bill for Women in Agriculture

The Sindh Assembly unanimously passed a historic bill that allows the women in the agriculture sector and livestock to have equal rights as their male counterparts. Women in the agriculture sector are the most vulnerable working community.

According to the Sindh Women Agriculture Workers Bill 2019, women in farming, fisheries, and livestock will not only receive payment in cash for their work, equal to that received by male workers but will also participate in decision-making.

This bill was proposed by provincial parliamentary affairs minister Mukesh Kumar Chawla, He added while speaking about the law: “Women would be empowered and payment for their work would not be less than the minimum wages fixed by the government for male workers.

Before this law, there was little to no concept of wages/incentives or rights for women in the sector, even though the majority of the female workers work around the clock while full time maintaining their home and taking care of their children. However, the new law grants extensive rights to a portion of the population that has been marginalized until now.

“The working day of a woman in the agriculture sector shall not exceed eight working hours and shall not commence until one hour after daybreak or continue beyond one hour prior to sunset,” – As per the LAw

The women workers will be allowed to take off days when sick or post-natal and antenatal care, routine check-ups, without any financial or other penalties.

According to the bill, “The women in this sector shall perform work free from all forms of harassment or abuse as laid out in the relevant law prevailing in the province.”

In the agricultural sector, women are not just faced with professional discrimination but they are treated unjustly with long working hours and no incentives provided. This law passed by Sindh assembly will have a positive impact on the lives of women workers in the agricultural sector. What are your thoughts about this bill?

5 Best Korean Drama OST that You Need to Listen!

Best Korean Drama OST

This list of Best Korean Drama OST has been compiled after having watched more than 500 South Korean dramas. In 2014, I was also very skeptical of people in this fandom, but a close friend told me to be more open to other cultures.

I also couldn’t understand the craze behind watching people who talked in a foreign language. I couldn’t have been more wrong about stereotypes and once I started watching I realized I had been missing out on great viewership and entertainment.

After having watched a huge number of K-dramas, it’s been difficult to shortlist just 5 Original Soundtracks (OSTs) as each one has more than 10 soundtracks. This list has been compiled after much thought process and is unbiased (well as much as it can be).

Here goes:

5. ‘Its You’ by Henry

On number 5 we have ‘It’s you’ By Henry in the popular Korean drama  ‘While you were Sleeping.’ This song is not really Korean. It’s in English but it just strikes a chord close to the heart. Imagine if the second OST of the drama is this good, the first would have been even better.

4. Stand By Me by Shinee

As my journey into Korean fandom continued, this song, in particular, introduced me to my ultimate Korean boy band, Shinee. This song  ‘Stand by me even if I don’t know its love, yet.’ is so relatable – Isn’t this a feeling all of us have had at least once in our lives?

3. Always by Yoon Mi Rae

One day you came to me like a dream and shook my heart!

Can you imagine not falling in love with lyrics like these? For this one, I suggest listening with subtitles and you will find yourself dissolving in it. This song is the title OST of my favorite drama ‘Descendants of the Sun’. It has been vocalized by Yoon Mi Rae whose heartfelt voice can grasp your attention even if you don’t understand the language.

2. Every time by Punch and Chen

The descendant of the Sun has had a clear advantage, I agree. Having been financed by Chinese businesses, the drama had all the budget it needed unlike others and has therefore been produced with utmost perfection. Having singers like Punch on board for the cute love story of an army officer and a civilian doctor who get to work together (the ultimate cliché), one sits through the whole video and listens to the song.

1. Stay with Me by Chanyeol and Punch

When the rap God and the queen of Kdrama OSTs come together to perform for the series ‘Goblin’, you get the ultimate masterpiece that can never be topped by any other song. My relationship with this song is so strong that in my most troubled times, the starting beat from the one-second marker brings a smile to my face every time.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pcKR0LPwoYs

In conclusion, Best Korean drama OST have a feel-good rhythm to them and their lyrics are relatable. Once you listen to these songs you will not be able to stop yourself from diving into the fandom and if you are already a part of it, then please tell in the comments if you agree with the list.

T H E E N D And so this journey officially comes to an end. It has been a long time since we both realised that our paths are destined to be separate. After multiple attempts and much consideration we have called it quits. I am sharing this on social media because I'm tired of answering questions about my status and going through interrogations about why. I’m tired of people’s opinions and involvement. I'm tired of pretending that things are ok so that I can keep a facade going. I'm tired of people assuming that I'm engaged or getting married. There was a proposal but unfortunately it did not materialise due to irreconcilable differences. I would like to request everyone to just let this difficult time pass as our friends and families are involved and I don't want them to go through any further pain or disappointment.
