Re: Is Karachi really modern?
Two very interesting stories in Dawn’s today’s Local page:

The first one actually made me wonder if I was the one who wrote the article; thanks God there are people in the media who share the same ideas as me, now the question remaining is - who’s gonna take notice? The second one had me in fumes… no one should pay these fraudias.
There’s also some good news on the page (links not here); including multi-storied parking plazas and a massive spenditure on hospitals. I also learnt that the investment in improving hospital facilities was a joint govt-private affair, now that’s a sensible move… unlike the absolute privatisation that’s going on in our city (as discussed in the first link).
