Karachi: An Evolving City

Every time I go to Karachi, it’s unrecognizable. I got every 3-4 years, and in that time span so much changes. For better, and for worse.

In fact, you can consider it an opportunity. City is ripe for fixing.

But can someone explain to me, in all this evolution with new malls and better shopping restaurants, etc - why everyone STILL dumps their trash on the street.

Now don’t blame all the poor people. The trash is created by middle class and upper class people as well.

When Islam is your deen and half your deen is cleanliness, why is your trash out on the road? Is it a city problem? What would possess people to throw trash on the road? And then we demand high class behavior in our “societies” and “tea parties”.

Karachi is a lost cause. It should be destroyed and rebuilt from the ground up. Every time I go there I always think of the potential it continues to lose year by year.

**its because i think our attitude back home is lack of descipline and indiffrence to inside and outside cleanliness standards. both are responsible. admin is care-free and kaam chor while people are NOT clean coz of their bad habits and lack of descipline. why is it that in same city the same people when they walk into a posh places like 5 star hotels, airports, and high-end restaurants, they abide by most, if not all, the rules of civility and cleanliness and as soon as they walk out of these places they do exactly what they do the best...become a garbage litter bug.
