Re: US citizens must avoid travel to Pakistan: FO

^ I guess you're talking about a couple of decades ago! Faisalabad is berry naice now :-)

24

Faisalabadis and Sialkotis love their respective cities more than anyone else in the entire country. They generally can not hear anything against their cities.

25

:smack: .. :smack: .. all cows are banned from the city years ago.. man.. Now 8 Bazaar electric-wiring is also gone underground, even yaar when i was in college 7-8 years their was security cam’s on main bulevards & bazaars. Security is very very good compare to other cities.

FSD is power base of Muslim League, PPP has few seats too. But comparatively to other areas its very much balanced.

26

Coz our city is the best, huh..

Most of the rich mill owners that live in Faisalabad usually spend their weekends in Lahore. The city has alot of money but lacks a proper infrastructure. Same goes with Sialkot.

Yazdi I disagree, they do hear criticism, and are pretty accepting about it. Its one of their qualities.

28

We used to spend weekends in Lahore, but in Musharraf era, huge development projects started. All the roads are fine shine,... infrastructure is 1000 times better then 10 years before.

You know why most of the people spend their weekends in Lahore before?.. ..Coz Lahore is known as Ayaashi ka Adaa.. sadly FSD become too, !

I'm in love.... ^_^ (finally)

Yaar u make FSD sound soo good! must go visit once things settle down. Fully agree that FSD is powergouse of PML. I used to live in a area of sheer ali. he got banned and now its his son abid sheer ali or something like that. He cant even speak decently and yet he is the MPA!! lol

Since you posted here I suppose. :)

Isn't that odd don't you think? South Asians know that india on a molecular level is similar to pakistan, if not worse, yet the double standard.

Re: US citizens must avoid travel to Pakistan: FO

But the water is Faisalabad is soooo khara

32

Two years ago new Japanese funded water treatment plant start working, now the water problem is correct in many areas. But still dude.. .its way better then Karachi & lahore !

33

Re: US citizens must avoid travel to Pakistan: FO

Lahore's is better than Faisalabad, but the best is Gujranwalas water.

34

Lahore.. is better offcourse.. but security wise its not at all. Faisalabad lead the way ..compare it to any major city !

35

Re: US citizens must avoid travel to Pakistan: FO

any smaller city in Pakistan is better then karachi and CERTAINLY lahore. big cities in our country are dirty, among other terrible things.

my personal favorite little/medium size towns are islamabad, nawshera, abbotabad, shiekhupura and mir pur khaas.
