Storms and rain in Karachi are back after a break, and while many are excited about enjoying the monsoon season, many are worried sick thinking about the usual consequences of this weather.

More heavy rains are expected in the City of Light today and tomorrow according to weather experts. Pakistan Meteorological Department’s chief meteorologist Sardar Sarfaraz told Geo News shared a total of 40-50mm rain is expected.

Showers are expected to start after 3-4pm and will carry on overnight. Monsoon season is expected to continue till 30th September.

As rainwater seeps inside houses and ruins furniture, standing rainwater causes electrocution and dreadful diseases.

Keeping all the issues in consideration, Waseem Akhtar (Mayor of Karachi) declared rain emergency in all public hospitals yesterday, so that any health emergencies due to rain can be dealt with on a priority basis.

Owing to this, the medical and paramedical staff’s leaves have been canceled and they have been directed to remain on duty. The municipal services staff and works department have also been deployed in the field.

Waseem has also advised Karachiites to take the following preventive measures so that such incidents can be avoided:

  • Seal your windows with cloth/towel pieces to keep water from seeping in
  • Maintain a distance from poles, transformers, downed power lines, low-hanging power lines and trees that have fallen on power lines
  • Cancel any flights that you may have during the days’ stormy weather is expected
  • Don’t head out without an umbrella and raincoat

Do you have any other precautionary measures that work like a charm for you?

Most Out-Of-School Children In The World – Pakistan is on #2

By
Muna Moini

Currently, Pakistan has the world’s second-highest number of out-of-school children, according to an alarming report by UNICEF.

An estimate of 22.8 million children aged 5-16 are not attending school, factoring 44% of the total population in this age group.

In the 5-9 age group, 5 million children are not registered in schools and after primary-school age and so the number of out-of-school children doubles, with 11.4 million adolescents between the ages of 10-14 not receiving a formal secondary education.

Differences based on gender, socio-economic status, and geography are notable with a high number of the poorest children, specifically girls being out of school.

NGOs and other organisations are working in Pakistan to bring down the numbers. They work on funds and donations as aid to help the children from the lower class.

The  illiteracy rate has become very alarming as majority of Pakistan’s youth will be uneducated if the stats continue as they are. Many volunteers have signed up for programs to help give back to the community by providing formal and informal education.

In order to stimulate progress and ensure the fair expansion of quality education, UNICEF also supports the Government of Pakistan’s efforts to significantly reduce the number of OOSC at pre-primary, primary and lower secondary levels.

Glad that World Media is Finally Waking up to see what is Really Happening in Kashmir: Mehwish Hayat

Mehwish Hayat

30th August: Pakistani actress Mehwish Hayat applauded BBC World for highlighting the serious issue of Kashmir.

She further writes that she is happy that the world is finally seeing what is really happening in Kashmir.

She further adds that this is just the tip of the iceberg.

Mehwish Hayat’s Tweet:

Thank you @BBCWorld for highlighting what we have been saying for so long. Glad that world media is finally waking up to see what is really happening in Kashmir. This is only the tip of the iceberg. #SaveKashmir.

The starlet retweeted the article titled ‘Kashmiris Allege Violent Army Crackdown’. To show solidarity with Kashmir, Pakistan observed ‘Kashmir Hour’ as Pakistanis filled the roads to protest.

The national anthem was played and sirens blazed all across Pakistan.

16th August: Mehwish Hayat is both loved and criticized by Pakistani and international fans for the stellar display of her acting and dancing skills on the screen.

She stole the spotlight for both good and bad reasons after receiving the Tamgha-e-Imtiaz in March this year.

And she has stolen the spotlight yet again, after her address at a Peace event in Oslo(Norway) and recognized with an award for Pride of Performance.

See her speech below and you’ll know exactly what we’re talking about:

In her speech Mehwish Hayat emphasized on how film industries have mostly used their power and platform to present a negative image of Pakistan and Pakistanis, when they could actually have done the opposite and broken the stereotypes the world already holds about our country.

This takes us to another celebrity who has been trending all over social media, but for the wrong reasons:

Priyanka Chopra, popular Bollywood actress and a UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador, responded to a Pakistani-American woman’s audacious question at the BeautyCon summit in Los Angeles and has been under the fire ever since.

The question was with regards to the tweet Chopra had posted in February in support of an announcement from India about launching airstrikes in Pakistani territory.

She was asked why she had been advocating war between two countries especially while she is an extremely influential persona and also a Goodwill Ambassador for UN.

Chopra’s response was criticized all over the world for being condescending, and soon a comparison between Mehwish Hayat and Priyanka Chopra began.

Here is what Chopra said:

“I hear you,” she said. “Whenever you’re done venting… Got it? Done? OK, cool. War is not something I’m really fond of, but I am patriotic.”

Chopra ended her response with the following demeaning lines:

“Girl, don’t yell. We’re all here for love. Don’t yell. Don’t embarrass yourself.”

The comparison between Hayat and Chopra has gained so much traction that people have started petitions to take Chopra down as UN Goodwill Ambassador.

This situation has also led people’s attention back to when Mehwish Hayat received the Tamgha-e-Imtiaz and how she really does deserve the award.

Multinational Brands are Eyeing Pakistani Textile & Garment Companies

By
Muna Moini
-

As Pakistan is a major exporter of textile products, it plays a pivotal role in uplifting the national economy.

The global shift to online retailing is also intensifying cost competition, a trend that could really benefit the country.

Pakistani garment companies are battling their way into the supply chains of some of the world’s biggest fashion brands and aiming to catch up with Bangladesh and other Asian apparel market leaders according to a report by Nikkei Asian Review.

Pakistan is drawing attention from multinational brands due to its cost-competitive garment making, despite limping behind more dynamic markets such as India or Bangladesh.

Brands like Zara and H&M require high quality and low costs from their suppliers.

According to a report, Kay & Emms, a garment maker based in Faisalabad, says it is benefiting from clients’ desire to diversify.

“We are getting more benefit because the customers are thinking that they are not 100% safe while putting all of their eggs in one basket that is either China or Bangladesh,”

Faisal Waheed, sales and marketing general manager at Kay & Emms.

Opposed to the traditional leaders in garment production that are China, Vietnam and Bangladesh, Pakistan is still an insignificant player, and the pressure on companies to reduce costs is great.

However, the rupee has been depreciating for the last two years, which makes Pakistani exports cheaper.

“There is always a war-footing situation,”

said Waheed.

“Every customer is cost-conscious, because they know they have the buying power around the globe. They have a lot of suppliers in their basket — Cambodia, India, Bangladesh, China and Pakistan. If you don’t act on war footing, you will be losing business.”

Kay & Emms is still small by global standards, with an annual turnover of just $50 million and 2,300 employees.

However, it is growing at an annual rate of 60% and around a fifth of its sales comes from Zara.

“After an effort of more than four, five months, we got the first order,” Waheed exclaimed. “It was quite hard to get into their business.”

Pakistan has been recognised as an “attractive sourcing base” by industry executives including Spencer Fung, CEO of Hong Kong-based supply chain giant Li & Fung, as garment production for Western brands continue to shift to lower-cost countries.

Chinese garment makers interested in exporting to the West are also drawn to Pakistan, which has duty-free access to many Western markets due to its status as a less developed economy.

What’s even sadder is that Pakistanis themselves do not support locally produced garments, as in their minds, only imported brands fit their standards.

UN Pushes Disney to Save Wildlife Before Lions Go Extinct!

lion king disney ceo

How many of you watched the latest Lion King film released by Disney?

You must have loved it, and it made over a BILLION dollars at the box office. However, did it, for even a second, makes you wonder what’s happening to the REAL lions?

Well…

Did you know that, since the first Lion King movie 25 years ago, the African lion population has almost reduced to HALF, and scientists say up to a MILLION species are on the verge of extinction?

Teeth and claws belonging to the bodies of real, majestic lions, rhinos, and elephants are being ripped off and smuggled for jewelry. If this continues, the generation after the next might not see any lions at all, as they may go completely extinct.

To try to prevent that wildlife catastrophe from happening, UN has decided to raise funds by pushing companies like Disney to donate a small fraction of their spendings to wildlife preservation projects.

UN is hopeful that, if Disney takes the lead, other prominent advertisers like Netflix, Google and more will follow suit.

Below is the link to the petition to persuade Disney’s CEO so that his social media is full of this and he is compelled to take action Disney: Help protect the Lion King and the Circle of Life!

Remember, every signature counts.

It’s great that we enjoy these movies that feature animals. Now, let’s play our part in helping the lion population survive and thrive.

Indian Cricketer Gautham Gambir once again thought that he could get away with making fun of Shahid Afridi, however, the Pakistani cricket clapped backed with an epic response.

Gambir being Gambir took it to Twitter to share a tweet about how he assumes Shahid Afridi is a clueless cricketer.

He further on shares that he has ordered ‘kindergarten tutorials’ to help the Record making and breaking former Pakistani skipper.

He tweets:

Guys, in this picture Shahid Afridi is asking Shahid Afridi that what should Shahid Afridi do next to embarrass Shahid Afridi so that’s it’s proven beyond all doubts that Shahid Afridi has refused to mature!!! Am ordering online kindergarten tutorials for help.

This tweet came after PM Imran Khan announced Kashmir Hour as a weekly event in Pakistan to show solidarity towards the citizens and raise voice against the violence.

Shahid Afridi took it to Twitter to second the PM’s thoughts. He tweeted:

Let’s respond to PM call for Kashmir Hour as a nation. I will be at Mazar e Quaid at 12 pm on Friday. Join me to express solidarity with our Kashmiri brethren. On 6 Sep I will visit home of a Shaheed. I will soon be visiting LOC.

But, Gautham Gambir did not laugh long as he thought he would be able to as Afridi was quick with his response.

What do you think about the whole scenario?

“Are you done venting?” is a phrase we all remember as Priyanka Chopra’s condescending statement at BeautyCon.

However, Karma strikes best and it also strikes at the best time, when the metal is hot!

Priyanka Chopra has recently become the laughing stock for social media when she photoshopped herself in an awkward picture of her husband, Nick Jonas at the recent MTV Video Music Awards.

The Jonas Brothers won Best Pop Song for Sucker at the awards night, and all the brothers except Nick received felicitation kisses from their wives. Nick had to attend the Awards Night alone as wife Priyanka was occupied with other professional commitments.
