Finding my way, from London to Karachi

Re: Finding my way, from London to Karachi

it is too hot there, entertainment options are limited and not good enough, and there is a lot of poverty there, the amount of beggars you see is striking, people are dirty/smelly..partially I suppose because they are too poor, working too hard at manual jobs, cant afford deodorants or are simply unaware. Other issues such as widespread corruption, inefficiencies, red tape, dada-geeri/ghunda-gardi is stuff that is new to people who have not spent much time there.

just the facts, and I dont even have a bad attitude about it. :slight_smile:

sometimes people complaining or noting issues with stuff are not really whinging, just stating their challenges with certain things. I understand it can bother people that essentially ‘outsiders’ are criticizing the country/city/society but you know what, none of what you wrote is stuff that locals dont complain about, and then there are other things that locals complain about, someone complains we are becoming too ‘westernized’ as a nation, others say not westernized enough, too bollywood, too saudized. So I am puzzled why it is an issue when someone new to pak notes similar issues.
