What I am more curious about is how do Pakistani immigrants adapt in countries like Sweden, Norway, Amsterdam, France, etc. A lot of FOBs do speak English (atleast to get their meaning across) and most can read English well. In all those European countries, knowing the local language is almost a necessity. They must face huge language problems and possibly alienation.

First of all: Amsterdam is not a country. It’s the capital of Holland.

Secondly: Yes, this is a problems that many immigrants here in Europe have. Even if they are well educated, they would spend one or two years just learning the local language (which is German in the case of Austria). Only then they can go and try to find a proper job and even that is difficult, because they don’t speak the local language fluently.
