The Resilient Karachites April 30, 2009

Filed under: General — RL @ 8:05 pm

People just talk about the dangers in Pakistan metropolitan cities but no one bothers how common citizen responds to it. The recent riots in Karachi which claimed the life of 40 people in the city and affected hundreds of families showed the another sign of burning situation of Group communal conflicts between MQM and ANP.

But my subject of writing today is not the riots and the issues behind it but how common karachite responds to it which reminds me saying of Mumbaians “Hum kabhi rukte nahin hain”. But Internationally people doesn’t notice how resilient Karachites are? It was surprising to see how people went out to work and their jobs a on very next day. Though it wasn’t the normal crowd but still enough to make your numb.

I believe the reason behind is the fact that we have accepted these kinds of events as part of our life. We don’t speak too much about and doesn’t even give “a thought” to stand up against it. Though it is good to be resilient but it doesn’t mean to loose your stimulus.

Just today I bought my new Nokia E61 cell phone having Qwerty Keypad and most importantly Wi-Fi feature available on phone. I am sure it is going make my life easy as I have Wi-Fi enabled home. But that’s not the new, news is that I got this phone with just 110 USD that means around 9k PKR…. Yupi…. Party :)

 

In case you thinking that what so special that I blogged on it. Then listen up, new Nokia E61i (Difference of Camera Feature only) is available in 28K that means 3 times more than what I paid. Don’t tell me it sounds good because it has 2 MP Camera.

How? is what one smart person must be thinking.

That’s Pakistan my jaan, Everything possible.

Cheers and let me have my life with my phone.
