While we are at it, it is great that we can press upon US, UK, and EU to open up their markets. I really like efforts such as the one by KCCI President Haroon Farooki who met with Ron Rimmer the British Deputy High Commission, Karachi. Mr. Farooki urged him that EU should provide a level playing field and an early grant of GSP plus status to Pakistan.
This will be the only way we will be able to rid ourselves from Urdu-bazi and Islamo-fascism.
Karachi is a great city, however it lacks the reputation compared to its neighboring ports like Dubai and Mumbai.
Karachi Film industry ought to pull itself up and create some fun-filled hulla gullah (rus-gulla).
Bottom line is that Karachi is ready to put all the bad stuff behind itself and surge forward on the international scene. Karachi zindabad, Pakistan Paindabad.
Re: Phoenix Rising - Karachi on the road to recovery
Good for karachi..being such a cosmopolitan city, given the right opportunity and left to it's own devices I am sure Karachi can compete with the best in the world, when karachi hurts all Pakistan hurts..unfortunately things are rarely balanced in Pakistan..one place recovers and another suffers.
Re: Phoenix Rising - Karachi on the road to recovery
Karachi needs to improve its infrastructure,roads in Karachi are still a mess.and the crime rate may have come down,but is still pretty damn high.. a lot of people are still getting mugged, a lot of cars are still being snatched at gunpoint.Mqm who are in the government here ,we all know what they are all about so you would'nt expect the crime rate to come down too much.
Re: Phoenix Rising - Karachi on the road to recovery
Karachi may rock. But the men are too feminine for *us **to take them seriously.
*ahem , "seriously" in which way are you talking about? I thought you were a guy :D
Re: Phoenix Rising - Karachi on the road to recovery
We spend our time laughing at there lack of masculinity.
Oh Chaudhry sahib, let this mash-kewl-anity thingy get some rest.
The topic of this thread is about Karachi making a recovery. Finally!
It is a good news so let's celebrate and gulp down couple of glasses of "pairay wali lassi". Off course for us Karahi-ites, that dark half-set tea is good enough. We'll by golly use the cups, the saucers, and finally the tea-kettle to serve half set tea to at least 5 people.

Just wait and watch for Saqib Malik’s upcoming film Ajnabi Shehr Mein, starring Ali Z and Shaan. And I agree, the bitterness of the natives needs to go.
Re: Phoenix Rising - Karachi on the road to recovery
^Film personalities are trying to establish one in Karachi.
Samina Peerzada, Saquib Malik, Jami, Humayun Saeed are among those who are working for this.
Re: Phoenix Rising - Karachi on the road to recovery
I would prefer to live in Islamabad if there was more business there.Altough the people here are slightly better than the people in punjab,but Karachi is very polluted and over populated now.
