Many of my relatives have spent their whole lives in Pakistan. Most of my friends have spent almost their whole lives abroad, apart from holiday trips to Pk.
I myself have been living in Austria all my life. Only in the last 6 months I had the opportunity of living in Pakistan.
I don’t know many people who have had that chance of living in both environments and I was just wondering what experiences people made by either moving away from Pakistan or moving to Pakistan:
Where do you think, life was/is better?
What were the advantages/disadvantages of living in Pakistan/abroad?

That is so awesome! that u got a chance to go and live there!!!
Can u start a thread in culture and talk about your experiences there! I would love to hear about it.
I’m from the US but originally from India so I’m not sure how different life in India is vs. pakistan. And how muslim Indians are different but I’m sure it would be quite exciting to hear about your trip.
beher haal education is very different than in pak. in pak teachers makes things so harder to
undersatnd and here no they always try to make things easy for us so that we can have a better understanding..
i have realized this ke those stuufss i had leanred back in 8th grade in pakitsan those stuffs comes
in my 10 and 11 grade class… in my Algebra class ppls usually calls me smarter cuz i always
go ahead from teacher.. cuz almost everything i know they teach.. (talking about ALgebra1 only) kahir now
i have Calculas but still i have a strong base of concept.. i am not saying its not good in pak
but still in pak sometimes they make thinsg difficult for us to even have a better understanding..
anyway i love my homeland i wish i can go back now but can;t cuz my brothers are in graduate school (Masters)
so my mom wont leave them and go back with me, she wants too but she knows she can;t stay thr without whole family.
i am lucky i had experianced to live both places i have lived thr almost my whole life thr in pak.
jsut a quickly reply.. ke munni thr is a big difference btw muslims living in pak and
muslims living in india.. i dun live thr but those who do (my fellows class mates)
they do treat good but still they find some sort of hatress inside indians heart..
doesn;t matter hwo nice they treat, but never trust them they can go as hard as u can;t
imagine..
plzz if any hindus reading plzz dun get offended.. thats what i heard.. but in pakistan
its a pure muslim country no objection no discrimination, ppls treat each other so nice

So PP, what do u think of people like me, Indian Muslims born and raised in America?
offcourse thr is some good hindus..and some of are my friends i love them so mucb but u knwo the worst part.. jab kabhi koi porb hoty hia to sab se pehle hindus hi saaath chor kar jate hian.. i am not the only one who experianced this..
anyhow i dun hate indians offcourse they are human being and Islam never
allow us to discriminate anyone.. like u guys have cast system..and some sort of Achooot ppls..
kahir.. i am sorry for being rude if u are indian>> hindu
Friendship is a precious gift from ALLAH, only lucky ppl have got this gift. And thank God, I am among those ppl

indian muslims ke they dun get enough rights thr.. as hindus does kahir i never experianed this

Zara yeh to bataao
Tum ne mujh say ziada zindagi ki
Baharain daikhee hain
Dunya ke nashaib-o-faraz say bakhoobi waqif ho
Yeh dunya itni zalim
Khudgharz aur behiss kyon hai? ~~~~~ ~~~~~
sometimes it also depends on what age group the person belongs to now..
People with firmer roots in the US today, those who've made it and adjusted to it, will always find it 'better' and find faults with Pakistan, it's government, it's people and culture.
You need to subdivide opinions based on the number of years somoene has lived in Pakistan and then abroad to factor in personal bias.
Seems like I made the same experience during my short trip to pakistan, some ppl do want to get out of pakistan and I was there thinking and wishing to be living in pakistan
Why? cos it’s where I feel I belong to…I do know many ppl living in both environments, but mostly those who live abroad even if they wish to come back, remain outside due to family and kids education, financial reasons ect…
