should we have holidays on Kashmir day, Independence day

…etc…etc???

i say no, because isleya Pakistan nahi baneya gayea tha. or atleast the entire premisis of observing the struggle that many kashmir went through cant be achieved by sitting at home.

in Fact we cant even afford these vacations. Pakistan’s economy is already very behind we have to struggle a lot.

besides uncalled strikes already ruining pakistani economy. what ya guys say?

why take weekends off?

Re: should we have holidays on Kashmir day, Independence day

I heard Japanese celebrate/commemorate a day by working 2 hours extra that day .. I dont know how true that is

i find these western excuses better, to have at least one long weekend every month. but kashmir day, and independence day, why?

where is the struggle?

in Pakistan on a holiday what ppl do is wake up around 2 pm.

i dont think there is any need to have kashmir day and second independence day should be change to pakistan day :o

Re: should we have holidays on Kashmir day, Independence day

i actually agree with you that some of these days should be less off days but more of an off work and school and instead engage in some civic service projet day

Kashmir Day is today, and people all over Pakistan are trying to figure out what to do with their Thursday. Nobody quite knows what they're supposed to do on Kashmir Day other than sleep late, eat halwa puri, and maybe watch a few Indian movies.***

abhi dekho patriotic pakistanis i.e. those who did not leave Pakistan for dollars kick you butt.

PS: is the writer in Pakistan :halo:

Re: should we have holidays on Kashmir day, Independence day

hahaha .. I think writer is in Pakistan .. its an article from The NEWS

Kashmir Day

But you have to read the whole article to get the full context .. although I love this statement of the writer. Its so true in spite of being so politically incorrect

Most Pakistani citizens have more than enough problems on their plate to really care about Kashmir. I mean this in the most non-offensive way possible.
