Pakistan citizenship and getting it in 7 years

When we are born in a place, we often become accustomed to it. If we live there long after birth, we come to understand how it works. Then, at a higher age, we are made citizens of that place. However, one can be granted citizenship in other places as well. Of course, there are certain conditions that must be met but it is possible. If you live long enough in a place, you can be made a loyal citizen of it. There is no doubt that many countries offer this, but there are some that don’t.

It can be quite difficult for foreigners to get citizenship in middle eastern countries. Similarly, China stands as a country where you cannot be a registered citizen. You may spend years, decades, at the place but you will not be able to achieve that level of residency. If your work is done, then you must find more or move back to your home country.

Citizenship Being Given

In a meeting that took place recently, the chairman of NADRA brought a new amendment to light. According to sources, foreigners can now be granted citizenship in Pakistan. Apart from any legal documents, the catch is that they have to be living in the country for, at least, 7 years. If you are not from Pakistan but have been living here for 7 years now, then you can apply for citizenship.

The policy has yet to be implemented but it has gone into effect. Sooner than later, foreigners will be able to become local citizens of the country and they can be proud of it. It can be quite a milestone to be able to have more than one citizenship. It signifies your diverse lifestyle and how much time you’ve spent far from home.

That said, we hope to see more and more foreigners take advantage of this new policy. After all, students and other professionals are going abroad, why not have some here? In the same meeting, many other agendas were discussed and stressed upon. They also included the current condition of the country in specific areas, including human rights.

There was also a lot of talking done on privacy and data breaches. NADRA confirmed that they’ve never had a data breach and have never been the subject of a hack. Each citizen is allowed access to their own data and no other organization is allowed to store their data. Additionally, people worry about their privacy but it has been discussed that there is no breach of it either.

Rawalpindi Ring Road Impact On Rudn Enclave

In the real real estate business what matters most is the location of a property. Location enhances the value of your property of any type. Homes in places with little expansion potential are more valued than those in areas with plenty of space. Consider a neighborhood’s accessibility, aesthetics, and amenities, as well as future development plans. The proximity of property near landmarks like busy highways and community centers may make it less resaleable.

An emerging project called Rudn Enclave Rawalpindi is set to be the next great thing in Pakistani real estate. On a national and worldwide scale, Rudn Enclave aspires to become an exclusive indulgence. The area that Rudn Enclave in Rawalpindi covers is more than 3000 Kanal

Rawalpindi Ring Road

The Islamabad-Rawalpindi Metropolitan Area is extremely important to Pakistan’s economy. It consists primarily of the twin cities of Islamabad and Rawalpindi and is the country’s third most populous metropolitan area. Both cities are linked by road and metro bus, and their economies are intertwined. Rawalpindi is also a key logistical and transportation hub for Pakistan’s northwestern region.

The National Highway N-5 is one of the country’s most essential national transportation arteries. The 1,819-kilometer route connects Torkham, Peshawar, Islamabad, Lahore, and Karachi, as well as other important economic cities. This corridor is home to 96% of external trade and 65% of all inland freight flows. The portion of N-5 that passes through Rawalpindi’s central neighborhoods is one of the major bottlenecks.

The development of the Rawalpindi Ring Road will aid in the alleviation of the N-5 bottleneck. It will relieve congestion in Rawalpindi’s central regions, as well as free up space and reduce travel time for non-motorized traffic, public transportation, and commuting vehicles. Rawalpindi ring road would also help the city of Rawalpindi grow in a planned manner towards the south-western edge.

The city’s position as a national transport and logistics hub will be enhanced by separating strategic movements toward the southwest area of the city from local traffic. Furthermore, the city’s northeast section as well as Islamabad will have enough room for livability, job generation, and other service or industry growth. It will also help to cut down on fuel usage, vehicular noise, and air pollution in the city.

How Rawalpindi Ring Road would be beneficial for Rudn Enclave?

The Rudn Enclave basically connects the 5 routes with itself.  It is situated at a prime location in Rawalpindi’s Adyala Road. This location is approximately 20 kilometers away. In addition, because the project Rawalpindi ring road is only 400-500 meters away from Rudn Enclave.

As the location of Rudn Enclave is connected to Rawalpindi Ring Road, which is the most encouraging feature. The freshly proposed Ring Road Rawalpindi passes right beside Rudn Enclave’s Gate 1. Rudn Enclave Rawalpindi is located on Adyala Road in Rawalpindi, close to the Lahore Islamabad Motorway M2, the CPEC Route, and the New Islamabad International Airport. Besides, after the completion of Rawalpindi Ring Road, the value of Rudn Enclave would skyrocket.

Furthermore, it is expected that the designers will create a fourth entrance that connects the private local area to the Lahore Islamabad Motorway M2, the CPEC Route via Chakri Road, and the Chakri Interchange.

This private community does not really have a focal point, although it is surrounded by sophisticated and upscale networks such as Bahria Town Phase 8, DHA Phase-II, New Islamabad International Airport, Rawalpindi, and Islamabad.

Furthermore, the National Highway, N5, Grand Trunk Road is around 45-50 minutes away, Chakri Road is 29 minutes away, Phase 8 Bahria Town, Rawalpindi is 31 minutes away, Saddar, Rawalpindi is 48 minutes away, and Rawat Chakbeli Road is roughly 24 minutes away. Similarly, Islamabad farmhouses are 9.8 kilometers away from this newly developed community.

As above all locations, Rawalpindi Ring Road is the most encouraging feature of this project because the Rudn Enclave project is developed within the boundaries of Rawalpindi Ring Road. It bisects the Rudn Enclave society which means half of the society’s area falls under the  Rawalpindi Ring Road.

The main perk of the area falling in Rawalpindi Ring Road is that the commercial plots, residential plots, and farmhouses that were booked at old rates, their prices are increasing now. Commercial plots are of 4,8  marlas and 1 Kanal and residential plots of 5,7,10 marlas and 1 Kanal and farmhouses are of 4 and 8 kanals. If we talk about the commercial plots, initially the plots were booked at 22 lacs with the down payment of 20% a year ago. Now the plots of a good category will give you the profit of 5-7 lacs on average. Farmhouses give 2.5 lacs profit on average.

Overseas Block

Overseas Block will be launched soon by Rudn Enclave, a new housing society with the best location. It is a well-planned and eagerly anticipated block in this society. The best houses at unbelievable pricing will be featured in Overseas Block. This block is producing a variety of appealing residential and business properties.

The most expected property deals will be available at Rudn Enclave Overseas Block. Qazi Investments provides complete guidance and consultancy regarding investments in overseas blocks. This block will provide you with the best residential and business properties available. Plot sizes of 5 marlas, 7 marlas, 10 marlas, and 1 Kanal are expected. These plots will all be offered in manageable portions.

Now the question that is being constantly asked is why the development of Rudn Enclave has not started yet? It is because, as mentioned above, the Rawalpindi Ring Road is passing through society and the development has not started yet. It will be inaugurated on 25th December 2021. As soon as the development of Rawalpindi Ring Road will start, the builders of Rudn Enclave will also start their development work.

If you people invested in Rudn Enclave then it is good news that you are in safe hands and incoming time you will get a fruitful profit from your investments.

#Hopeforpakistan, Powered By P&G Pakistan, Motivates Change For A Promising Future For Underprivileged Women In Pakistan

P&G is committed to the cause of gender parity and continues to broaden economic opportunities for women in a sustainable and transformative manner. Recently, they announced the extension of their cooperation with long-term partner HOPE for $100,000, to reach out to more women in marginalized communities to ensure that women and girls have equitable access and opportunity. The main aim is to motivate change within the community for a promising future. This all stems from their promise for a world free from gender bias, with equal voice and equal representation for all individuals. A world where everyone sees equal.

According to the ‘Global Gender Gap Report 2021’ published by the World Economic Forum (WEF), Pakistan ranks 153rd out of 156 countries on the gender parity index and the overall literacy rate amongst girls in the country is only 47%. Another alarming fact in Pakistan is that only one percent of entrepreneurs are women. And that is because, women business owners face a myriad of challenges, ranging from legal barriers that prevent them from establishing a business, to lack of access to loans and financial know-how.

Strengthening the economic role of women is critical to reducing poverty, improving health and education outcomes for their future generations. This program came into being to support this kind of empowerment. With the setup of 7 vocational training centers, many women and girls in areas such as Badin, Sujawal, Thatta, Gadap, Ghagger, Muzaffargarh and soon Muzzaffarabad, learn skills that provide them with a chance to have a brighter future.

One such example of an empowered woman, coming out of this initiative, is Hakima Baloch. After suffering from a major tragedy in life when her husband passed away, she was paralyzed with acute financial crisis. ‘HOPE’ turned out to be a savior and taught her the ‘art of fishing’ – that is stitching – so that she can become independent and provide a livelihood for her family. As of now, Hakima leads a respectable and happy life by earning for herself. Not just that, she also bears the expenses of her children’s schooling.

Hakima Baloch isn’t the only success story. Over the last three years, P&G in collaboration with HOPE has trained 11,695+ women through 6 vocational training centers and provision of quality secondary education to women and girls in semi-urban and rural areas of the country.

#HopeforPakistan remains steadfast in its approach in making a positive impact by promoting equal representation and opportunities for all individuals. It takes a gigantic leap forward in spreading this initiative with established firms to make them utilize their resources to the fullest for those who need HELP.

Women constitute approximately half of the population in Pakistan. Giving Economic opportunities to women is undoubtedly a crucial step in achieving female empowerment in Pakistan. #HopeforPakistan is another step forward towards the fulfillment of the company’s aspiration to build a world with equal representation and an equal voice for women, at the workplace, in the communities, and in the country.

Karachi Zoo’s Treatment Of Rare White Lion – Where Are The Authorities?

Image Source: The News

Pakistan is especially a hell zone for animals as citizens not only brutally treat animals but also remain criminally negligent towards them. The latter are those who have a responsibility towards animals for whatever reason yet do not fulfil them. Most Pakistanis suffer from selective empathy which, as this recent case shows, has terrible consequences.

What Happened?

Karachi Zoo had a rare white lion who has just been announced dead. The lion’s body is clearly, without any doubt, look emaciated. What is even more horrifying are the scars on its body. The lion’s body has so many scars which people believe are whip marks— the zookeepers must have whipped them each time they came into contact with them.

Have A Look At His State:

What Is Being Known?

Many people are theorizing that the lion was literally starved to death because KMC had not given its payment. The food supply was barred. The other version says that the lion was suffering from tuberculosis and was critically ill for 2 weeks.

Nonetheless, the lion breathed his last yesterday. Even if the latter were true, the lion’s physical state does not lie to us. Look at their mane, look at their body and look at their scars— this was plain torture, negligence and irresponsibility. 

Read more:

What Are People Doing?

People want accountability. Zoos are themselves a problematic concept: why must we cage living beings for our entertainment? Moreover, Pakistan has proved itself to be incapable of taking care of animals. The case of Kaavan was clear in this: his partner died of gangrene and then Kaavan was depressed alone. While he met a better fate, unfortunately, this lion could not.

Here’s what people are saying:

What Can Authorities Do?

Authorities must ideally abolish zoos. These cases of animal abuse have proved they are not sustainable in Pakistan. Realistically, they need to investigate honestly why the lion died. What are the scars?

However, even this seems like a hard-ask provided authorities keep dog culling despite organisations like ACF’s hard work, day and night. What can save this is hard, strict, and multiple laws that protect animals.

The show, as expected, was full of laughs. It seemed that both were equal levels of witty with humorous responses literally at the edge of their tongues, keeping the audience entertained. The host, Tabish covered lots of ground when it came to the guest, from her education to her personality, and her career. With the respect that he conducted the show, he seriously won hearts.

As expected though, the questions referred to all the scandals Hareem Shah was involved in, and Hareem did not hold back either.

Explaining political scandals

Mufti Qavi

With regard to Mufti Qavi, she said that it started out as revenge. She had been fed up with his statements and actions on public platforms alleging that he had been in contact with Hareem with the help of secretaries to invite her to Islam. She even quoted the unprofessionalism of Mubashir Luqman who gave that platform to Muft where he could spew lies.

Photo with Imran Khan 

With respect to her photo with Imran Khan, she said that it went viral and attracted criticism because she had her hand on the PM’s shoulder. Elaborating on it further, she said that the PM had only smiled when she clicked the picture. The reason, she felt, it went viral was because most others don’t get the chance to be up close with the Premier.

Fayyaz ul Hassan Chohan

He, it seems, has blocked Hareem Shah’s number.

Mubashir Luqman issue

In explaining how she has inside tea on everyone she revealed why Mubasshir Luqman got irritated. She alleges that he got angry because his plane was revealed, and he had gotten it from Malik Riaz.

Sheikh Rasheed

Hareem said that Sheikh Rasheed offered to give her his number. Well, well, well…

And even after leaked videos, he still talks to her.

The country’s future

To the question: who is the tharkiest of them all, Hareem said it was the politicians. How should one feel about the country’s future after knowing this, we will have to think about that a little.

Revelations about Hareem 

  1. She is an M.Phil Student.
  2. Hareem is not her real name.
  3. Her first salary was PKR 600,000.

Body Worn Cameras – More Than Just Footage Producers

Digitization has taken the world by storm. It is indeed the new industrial revolution whereby big data accumulation, automation to reduce discrepancies, and building further efficiencies has become the mantra of every industry, every business segment. The onus is heavier on the service sector, where transparency builds trust in the processes and there is a constant competition on the ‘convenience’ and ‘speed’ fronts. Nevertheless, the private entities have been more accepting of these changes, however, there is still a lot to be desired, while the state of affairs of the public service providers paint a drastically different picture.

Law Enforcement Agencies constitute one such division of public services which in spite of their initiatives, hard work, devotion, and even plenty of sacrifices still face a whole plethora of challenges, topmost being their image in the eyes of the general public. There is a huge lack of trust on their capabilities, undying faith about their corruption and the rumor mill of the civilians also adds fuel to the fire. There are many challenges and issues which will not vanish overnight, but through technology implementation, the march towards that direction will begin.

In the service industry, where people are themselves the product and the harnessers of customer service and satisfaction, it is imperative that all client facing people are trained to truly represent the organization, product or brand. Even when this is done quite intricately, it has been observed that it is important to keep an eye on the service levels, the bedside manners, the soft skills, and hard skills being implemented in the desired manner or not. Our observations show that hospital management and airport staff and even banking customer support fall short at times with furious customers launching complaints, tarnishing the prestige on social media, or in worst cases initiating lawsuits. A small lapse in details can become a nightmare, but imagine all the customer-facing people wearing a camera on their suit or uniform will provide blissful heaven for quality assurance personnel. They will be able to implement, check conformance, monitor deviations and devise a flawless plan of action to exceed customer expectations. HR personnel can have a brilliant tool to devise and rate KPIs and eventually appraise people. The people wearing the camera will also give in to the ‘watching eye’ and be on their best behavior saving lots of unnecessary costs to the organization.

iTecknologi Group of Companies thrives on introducing the most innovative tech to Pakistani market and their flagship iTecknologi Asset Tracking and Security company possesses all sorts of security, monitoring and surveillance solutions. This is one of the offerings that their product team believes should be a compulsory addition to the uniform of LEA personnel on the field, or any frontline official dealing with clients for unprecedented customer delight. This will also provide for a huge data-mine which will uncover uncountable insights into customer interactions.  What’s best is that the equipment backed by state-of-the-art application has all the capabilities which one can think of.

The salient points of transparency, checks and balances, anti-corruption tool, providing efficiencies, a better Image and most of all the big data accumulation, make Body Worn Cameras a no brainer. The transparency bit will check a lot of boxes covering both ends of the spectrum. The officer will refrain from any misdeed, bad behavior, abuse of power and the organization will be able to showcase the positive material. The other end of the line consists of us, the general public, who will also behave knowing that everything is being captured.

By now you can actually feel this assisting in bringing down the corruption propagation by officers and the public. Implementing these cameras will make the bribe’s kitty quite empty. Knowing that someone is watching your moves, makes people do their work in a more professional way and doing anything unlawful will become out of the question since everyone wants to keep their job, dignity and a secure future.

There are many intrinsic and alternate advantages attached to having a body cam on officers like increase in productive job hours seems quite obvious. There will be less complacency pertaining to hours on the job and more dedication. This has the potential of making numerous elements automated, for example even the personnel’s attendance can be captured with time stamped powering up of the camera.

Image Source: iTecknologi Group of Companies

Last but not the least, accrual of this data will provide for a lot of analysis which will help in future decisions pertaining to deployment as well as training needs. The data can also provide for a Key Performance Indicator (KPI) system, which will devise performance matrix and easy checks and balances on various aspects of the job, activities, tasks as well as skills of the officers.

Based on International standards, iTecknologi Asset Tracking and Security solutions in general and body-worn cams, in particular, open up doors for endless possibilities for many industries to ascend their performance and also inculcate a positive image in front of everyone.

[Video] Man In Lahore Shamelessly Asks A Woman If She Wants A Ride Home

Image Source: Twitter

Day in and day out women in Pakistan suffer harassment be it sexual, physical, or verbal. This woman has shared a new incident on her Twitter account, calling attention to the incident which happened with her friend. It is particularly disturbing and upsetting because neither the clothing can be debated on nor the location: it confirms that the issue is the mindset alone.

What Happened?

A woman and her friend were standing within the area of Mall One, Lahore. Mall One has become like an elite food street where eateries are studded across the small street and it’s always exceptionally rushy. Lahoris can see Gauchos at the back— they can tell that this woman is in the heart of a so-called elite place amongst so-called educated people. 

The friend with whom this incident happened was just using her phone. If anyone ever wanted to raise a question on her clothing, they couldn’t because she is fully dressed. Two men in a car come close to her and insistently keep asking “hello, apka naam kya hai?” Then they ask her, “apko ghar chhor dein?”. The guy in question has the most disgusting smile on his face, even unapologetic and fearless while he’s being recorded.

Watch The Video Here:

What’s Wrong Here?

It is beyond revolting and also scary how a man can feel confident asking such a sexually laden question to a stranger woman. It shows they have no sense of punishment or consequences in their mind. Moreover, it also shows how they perceive women they find in public spaces: women who are available for them to ‘drop back home’. 

What is even more upsetting is how the friend being harassed had to quietly take it. She is seen continuing to use her phone. What could she have done? Women feel more comfortable sharing their complaints on social media, safe behind a screen rather than in person. This is because even the authorities have become a frightening place for them, for us.

The Issue In The Replies

Though many women and men came in support of this woman and her friend, there were too many problematic statements also. They reflect how we have a role to play in all the terrible sexual harassment cases that happen in our society. Have a look here:

The good news is that the Lahore police reached out. Let’s see and hope that these disgusting men are punished.

Master Changan Reveals Sketches Of Upcoming Suv

Karachi, 24th November 2021: Master Changan Motors, the auto brand of choice for more and more Pakistanis, is proud to announce it will soon be entering the country’s much-heated SUV segment, revealing official sketches of the incredibly sleek and aggressively designed SUV.

Since debuting the Changan Alsvin Sedan in late 2020, Master Changan has fast grown to become one of Pakistan’s most popular automotive brands, constantly enticing consumers with innovative and cutting-edge auto technology. Earlier this year, the company unveiled its “Future Forward Forever” positioning, demonstrating its commitment to this by testing Changan’s Level-3 autonomous driving technologies on Pakistani roads – a first for any automaker in the country.

Now, the company has revealed, it is planning to introduce Pakistani auto consumers to a brand-new option in the SUV segment. Commenting on the company’s upcoming segue into the SUV segment, Danial Malik, CEO Master Changan says, “As with everything else, we are entering the SUV segment with a ‘Future Forward Forever’ attitude and look forward to disrupting it for the better and bringing Pakistan’s SUV consumers into the future.”

While the company has not revealed features, price, or launch timelines – mentioning only the new SUV will debut “Very soon!” – it has released initial sketches of the upcoming SUV, and claims that the upcoming SUV launch will be the first-ever ‘global launch’ for any vehicle in Pakistan. What that means is that Pakistan will be the first country to launch this new Changan SUV outside China as a global launch and the vehicle will be supplied to other RHD markets from Pakistan.

Elaborating on this, Mr. Malik says, “Despite spending millions of rupees, Pakistani consumers more often than not continue to lack access to the automotive design and technology available in other countries. Historically, Pakistanis get access to new models significantly later than other markets; the recent spate of ‘new’ and expensive SUVs are either at the end of their model life or have already been replaced globally with newer models. As such, we are proud to announce that Changan will be releasing this new SUV to Pakistani consumers first.”

The sketches show an SUV with streamlined contours, combining classic auto design with a high-tech, futuristic twist. With an elevated front and rear, the form brings to mind an authoritative urban SUV from the future. Wide and protruded wheel arches give a bulky and powerful stance to the SUV, adding a broad and sporty presence. The front grill seems to have a sophisticated diamond pattern with sharp corners, and a two-tier front headlamp setup can also be seen, similar to other Changan vehicles such as the UNI-T.

“I wouldn’t have let him marry an older woman” – Says Zaid Ali’s Mother

Zaid Ali, the popular YouTuber who attained the height of success through his comic videos on Bollywood movies is now pursuing a career officially as a vlogger. Now, most of his content involves his family. In a recent video, that meant having his wife and mom as guests.

Read More: Zaid Ali Has Started An Online Debate – Who Does The Baby Look Like?

Zaid Ali: Saas-Bahu Muzaakira

The idea behind the video was to have the saas-bahu have an honest conversation with each other. Maybe Zaid wanted to enforce the stereotype that the saas-bahu relationship is one where something is always going wrong. And they are not always truthful to each other. Well, maybe Zaid Ali, you are discounting the ‘saving face’ phenomenon or the notion of being respectful to the other person who joined the family not too long ago.

Saas-Bahu controversy 1: bahu is not perfect

Coming back to the video in question, Zaid asked both participants some questions and they were all very pointed and in reference to the other person. For instance, he asked his mother who her favorite daughter-in-law was. At first, she tried deviating it but then, when forced to give an answer, she made a remark that could come off as insulting. She said that no one is her favourite because no one is perfect; (well, no human is perfect, aunty).

In yet another question, Zaid Ali asked his mom what would she have done had she known that Yumna is older than Zaid. She tried hiding but it turns out that she would not have allowed the marriage to happen had she known earlier. Yumna was ready with her comeback though. She said that her other bahu is also older than her husband. The mom did add though that morally it’s not wrong to marry older women. (But ouch, aunty you said it like the men are doing a favor on the women for marrying them).

Yumna is not coming slow either

When Zaid gave Yumna a hypothetical question of who she would help were Zaid and his mom to fall down a flight of stairs. Yumna must have wanted to seem nice to choose the saas but her explanation seemed a little shady. She said, well, you know, aunty seems like she would need more help. (Are you age-shaming her or fat-shaming her Yumna?)

Watch the video

Zaid Ali, was it scripted?

All that said, it seems like the show was scripted. Why else would Yumna openly say anything to her saas or saas call her out so openly? If their relationship was not good in the first place, they would not even agree to do the show together. And since they agreed to do the show, their relationship was indeed well, in that case, they would never be accusatory to each other especially in public.

Pakistan Ranked 2nd Lowest in Gender Equality

Beating Afghanistan, Pakistan has ranked second lowest in the entirety of South Asia due to the lack of gender equality that is prevalent in the country. This information was discovered in a detailed report on women empowerment by Lahore University of Management Sciences (LUMS) Mahbub ul Haq Research Centre in its Annual Human Development in South Asia Report for 2016.

According to the World Economic Forum’s (WEF) Global Gender Gap Report 2016, Pakistan ranked 143 out of 144 countries with respect to the gender inequality index. Bangladesh and India ranked 72nd and 87th respectively.

This research is inclusive of many factors such as length of education, accessible healthcare, along with economic, political and legal participation of women.

The questions mentioned in the report include:

  1. How has the economic, social, political and legal status of women in South Asia progressed since 2000?
  2. Has the progress been evenly distributed between women and men?
  3. What is the extent of inequality between women and men in various aspects of life?
  4. What are the policy options for enhancing women’s capabilities and enlarging women’s economic and political opportunities?
  5. What institutional mechanisms are needed to eliminate the discrimination of women?

Education 

“Female literacy rate has improved by about 50% while female gross enrolment rates at the primary, middle and matric levels have also increased by about 15 to 20%. A similar trend can also be seen in higher education.”

girls-education

This indicates that a significant improvement has been made regarding women’s education, although, 55% of females are still illiterate.

 

Labour

The report highlights that between the years 2000-2014, the rate of the inclusion of women in the workforce has increased by 50% whilst the gender-wage gap has decreased- the reason being the increase of education amongst women. 

working-women-in-pakistan

However, a majority of them are participating in low-quality work. Although women work more than men, their affiliation is rarely recognized.

Healthcare

Due to the increased use of contraceptives, the fertility rate has been reduced to 3.6 births per woman. There has been a change in the overall health of women in terms of life expectancy that has risen to 66.5 years.

In South Asian countries, traditional and religious values are treasured more than laws for women against abuse, harassment, and discrimination.

women-empowerment

Although many laws are available and have been implemented over the past few years for the protection of women and their rights, and significant improvements have been made for the women of Pakistan over the past few years, it still has many lengths to reach, as the report clearly states.

PepsiCo Pakistan Collaborates With Public Health Authorities To Achieve 100 Percent Covid-19 Vaccination Rate

PepsiCo is one of the fastest companies in Pakistan to ensure that employees and frontline associates are 100 percent Covid-19 vaccinated. In partnership with the Primary and Secondary Healthcare Department, Government of Punjab, PepsiCo organized extensive vaccination drives and awareness campaigns to accelerate vaccination rollout among more than 3,000 employees and frontline associates. This is part of PepsiCo’s overall goal for ensuring employee health, safety, and wellbeing and stepping up to support the government’s ongoing efforts on expanding Covid-19 immunization. This public-private sector partnership resulted in preventing Covid-19 infection transmission and played an instrumental role in raising awareness, prioritizing employee safety, and safeguarding families, and creating positive community impacts.

This milestone was celebrated at a ceremony in the presence of Mr. Imran Sikandar, Secretary Primary and Healthcare Department, Government of Punjab, district health officials, and PepsiCo representatives.  Mr. Imran Sikandar, Secretary Primary and Secondary Healthcare Department present at the ceremony remarked, “Thank you, PepsiCo Pakistan for being a responsible organization and vaccinating 100% of your employees. This is a prime example of what a joint venture between public and private sectors can do. Congratulations to PepsiCo along with the healthcare workers of Primary and Secondary Healthcare departments for achieving this milestone!”

Mr. Furqan Ahmed Syed, CEO PepsiCo Pakistan, also shared his remarks on the successful culmination of the vaccination drive and stated, “It is very encouraging to witness our vaccination teams, associates, and frontline heroes come together to vivaciously fight the pandemic. I also express my sincere gratitude to the health authorities for supporting our employees’ well-being through vaccinations roll-out.”

PepsiCo Pakistan

From the onset of the Covid-19 pandemic, PepsiCo Pakistan has made significant strides to support Pakistani communities during the evolving pandemic situation. In 2020, PepsiCo Pakistan in collaboration with the Prime Minister’s Ehsaas ration program launched ‘Millions of Meals’ – a nationwide, disaster-relief program to meet communities’ nutritional needs during the crisis and address the acute food insecurity at the country level. The program brought together civil society actors, charities, and volunteers to swiftly distribute 13 million meals across Pakistan, including remote areas of Balochistan, Gilgit-Baltistan, and Azad Jammu and Kashmir. The positive societal impact of this inclusive food distribution drive in Pakistan eventually cascaded to other impacted regions where similar humanitarian efforts were carried out for underserved communities.

This is not the first time PepsiCo has set out to accelerate positive social impact on communities through public-private sector partnerships. Earlier, PepsiCo joined hands with the Government of Pakistan to advance the Prime Minister’s transformational Clean Green Pakistan mission. PepsiCo is making efforts for driving a circular economy in line with its vision for a world where plastics need never becomes waste. In 2021, PepsiCo Pakistan launched one of the country’s largest plastic waste collection programs.  This year nearly 100,000 people in water-scarce communities were given access to safe drinking water.

PepsiCo is committed to driving an inclusive post-Covid-19 recovery with agility to pave the way for transforming the way it creates shared value by operating within planetary boundaries and inspiring positive change for the planet and people. Moving forward, PepsiCo Pakistan will further its ‘In, With, For Pakistan’ agenda to create positive social impacts and strengthen its alliance with the government for improving the social sector performance and supporting communities, including women and youth in need.

The Evolving Role Of Short-Form Video Platforms In Online Gaming

Gaming has become one of the most rapidly expanding industries in modern times. The sector has become larger than the music and movie segments combined especially in the US. However, China continues to be the biggest market for eSports and video games worldwide. Generating revenues of nearly $41 billion in 2020, the Chinese market trumped the US with the latter raking in $37 billion during the same year.

With lockdowns during the COVID-19 pandemic providing the industry with an unprecedented boost, the world is now witnessing the marriage of social media and gaming to expand what is already an exceptionally vibrant field. Streaming platforms and short video-sharing apps are taking center stage in driving a unique mix of entertainment segments that have never been seen before.

To put things into perspective, Facebook gaming witnessed an exceptional 210% growth year on year in 2018 and 2019. At the same time, nearly 9.3 billion hours of eSport streaming was watched on Twitch during the same year. And it’s not just traditional social media platforms where gaming has gained traction but the rising category of short video sharing apps is also witnessing substantial growth in gaming communities.

eSport brands and tournament organizers worldwide have realized the impact that collaborations with short video sharing apps like TikTok, Likee, and Snapchat have on their respective viewership. This has given rise to a trend where diverse partnerships are being witnessed through live streaming or promotional ways like hashtag challenges and in-app exposure opportunities that are beneficial not just to players but brands as well.

Platforms like ByteDance, Tencent, and NetEase have begun working with some of the most renowned gaming brands across the planet. In 2019, Epic Games, the creators of the legendary Fortnite, collaborated with users on a short video-sharing platform to help create a new Emote for the game. Similarly, many gaming leagues and competitions are now taking to short video-sharing apps for enhanced user experiences as well as greater reach.

Besides the benefits for brands and audiences, creators themselves are finding new opportunities for themselves to grow through gaming. A strengthening community worldwide is a testament to this shift. Likee, a leading short video sharing app, for instance, launched the #LikeeGamingZone where creators can meet like-minded individuals while streaming content to a vast number of viewers globally. So far, the community under #LikeeGamingZone has grown to 3000 fans with a viewership of more than 80 million and counting.

Pakistan is no different from the quickly accelerating global trend around gaming. With the introduction of numerous streaming as well as short video-sharing apps focused on providing gaming communities the chance to shine, this segment is expanding rapidly. Likee is one of the most popular short-form video sharing apps in the country these days and the platform recently launched the Gamer Team Battle, Pakistan’s first-ever short video gaming contest. With nearly 4500 videos uploaded by almost 92 participants, the competition has truly caught the attention of the community and its viewers. Viewership numbers stand at more than 1 million and they are rapidly growing each day.

In conclusion, it is safe to say that short video sharing apps are becoming the new hubs not just for various content creators, but gaming as well. With renewed interest from brands, tournament organizers, and creators alike, these apps are expanding horizons for the gaming community as a whole.

Having the most Grammy nominations is also essential to an artist’s success! For instance, American rapper Jay Z rose to the top of the list of artists with the most Grammy nominations on Tuesday as he hit a lifetime total of 83. This put him just slightly ahead of former Beatle Paul McCartney. These three latest nominations for Jay-Z were a result of his collaborations with other artists. Jay-Z made guest appearances on DMX song ‘Bath Salts’ and Kanye West’s ‘Jail’.

Embracing The Music Culture

In a recent couple of years, the music culture of Pakistan has incredibly improved. Artists are confident with their skills and share them with the world. Artists like Hasan Raheem, Young Stunners, Maanu and Taha G are all the rage at the moment. With recent upcoming music festivals like Rhythm Fest and Flamin’ Hot, we feel like we’re just getting started yet. Congratulations are in order for Arooj Aftab!

Top Beauty Salons for Bridal Make-Up in Karachi

best-beauty-salons-in-karachi

Weddings have always been a long, dramatic affair in Pakistan. In between the weeklong events, the monstrous amount of preparations required for the big day and managing a truckload of relatives, the weddings become far from relaxing for the bride-to-be.

To amp up the pampering factor and to help them look flawless on their special day, we have compiled the list of Top 10 Bridal Salons in Karachi for the rushed bride.

Bina Khan

Location: Bukhari commercial Lane No. 1, Defence, Karachi

One of the most established makeup artists in Pakistan, Bina Khan is the go-to choice of a huge number of Karachi brides.

[fb_embed_post href=”https://www.facebook.com/binakhansalon/photos/pb.123285851081176.-2207520000.1440586513./522495594493531/?type=3&src=https%3A%2F%2Fscontent-fra3-1.xx.fbcdn.net%2Fhphotos-xta1%2Ft31.0-8%2F857722_522495594493531_1594548999_o.jpg&smallsrc=https%3A%2F%2Fscontent-fra3-1.xx.fbcdn.net%2Fhphotos-xap1%2Fv%2Ft1.0-9%2F1240558_522495594493531_1594548999_n.jpg%3Foh%3Dd6b88603ae889857d981aba19460fb40%26oe%3D56364050&size=1462%2C2048&fbid=522495594493531/” width=”550″/]

Not only does Bina Khan’s salon offer top notch makeup but the bridal services that come with it are splendid too. Charging PKR 35,000 for bridal makeup, Bina Khan does both traditional and fusion looks with ease. Her salon boasts one of the most trained and polite staff in town, something very uncommon in most of Karachi’s salons.

Natasha Salon

Location: 7E, 8th Zamzama Lane, Opposite Pizza Hut, Karachi

Run by Madam Noor Jehan’s granddaughters, Natasha and Sabrina Khalid, the salon literally revolutionized the art of makeup in Pakistan when it first debuted.

[fb_embed_post href=”https://www.facebook.com/182139695225631/photos/a.212550928851174.38400.182139695225631/730645530375042/?type=1&theater/” width=”550″/]

Trained in London, Natasha is known for her intricate hairstyles and regal looking brides. A choice of many celebrity brides too, Natasha charges PKR 45,000 for bridal makeup and services.

While most reviews for Natasha are good, some people do find her makeup “too white and made up”, something that Asian women find hard to adjust to with their wheatish skin tone.

Sabs the Salon

Location: 4 -C Farooq Heights, 36th Commercial Street, Tauheed Commercial Area, Phase 5 DHA. BRANCH: 1-D, Street 20, Off Tipu Sultan Road, Muhammad Ali Housing Society.

The only problem with the salon is the number of brides it takes on for the day. Often coined as the “fish market” of the bridal world or “bride factory” as some call it, most brides do not feel as pampered as they would like at the most special day of their life. Nonetheless, the makeup by either of the two MUAs is hands down one of the best.

ANAM 

Location: 22nd Commercial St. 75500, DHA, Karachi

Trained by Hollywood MUAs, international celebrity makeup artist, Anam is yet another newly popular name in the makeup industry of Pakistan.

[fb_embed_post href=”https://www.facebook.com/anam.makeup/photos/a.192889704087040.41500.191624994213511/964095763633093/?type=1/” width=”550″/]

Charging PKR 38,000 for bridal makeup, Anam also offers makeup training courses in Pakistan and abroad.

While her makeup has garnered her immense popularity in a short period of time, she has had her share of bad reviews for cancelling out on makeup appointments at the last minute and photo-shopping her makeup pictures.

N-Pro

Location: C-33, E-Street, Block 4, Clifton, Karachi

One of the most experienced Pakistani makeup artists to date, Nabila continues to rule the bridal and the fashion industry of Pakistan.

[fb_embed_post href=”https://www.facebook.com/NPROofficial/photos/pb.528430577196004.-2207520000.1440588274./540670389305356/?type=3&src=https%3A%2F%2Fscontent-fra3-1.xx.fbcdn.net%2Fhphotos-xaf1%2Fv%2Ft1.0-9%2F391373_540670389305356_768503607_n.jpg%3Foh%3Dab1aafa2801b4c72ce0492ea1d60afb0%26oe%3D5674CD38&size=706%2C960&fbid=540670389305356/” width=”550″/]

Having recently launched her own makeup line, Nabila along with her fellow MUA Bushra are two of the best makeup artists to go to for bridal makeup in Karachi. Their bridal packages range from PKR 18,000 to PKR 32,000.

The makeup done by Maria is flawless, the services provided by the staff members are splendid to say the least and the general ambiance of the salon is extremely calming. Apart from the affordable bridal makeup and services (PKR 25,000), Maria is also a go-to hairstylist for many Karachi girls.

The makeup looks are traditional, none too over-the-top and the bridal services are passable. while brides do love Shamain’s attention to work and her makeup, some feel she is inexperienced with difficult skin types and that her staff is very discourteous.

Zee5’s Qatil Haseenaon Ke Naam Seems Non-Creatively Similar To Churails

Zee5, a channel with Indian origins and excels in Pakistani shows, is gearing up for yet another project, Qatil Haseenaon Ke Naam. While the channel had been fairly active releasing new shows every now and then, the most famous to date still has been Churails.

Churails & its story 

The story of Churails revolved around four women and some others who decide to attack their attackers. The story starts with establishing a line of defense. Hence, at first, these women, began their investigations, looking into the spouses of their clients. But soon, the story gets the men in their lives involved too and they shift modes; from defensive to offensive.

Now, this is a story that you would say broke stereotypes. It challenged the values associated with women and their characters. It truly was a deviation from the concretized notions that defined Pakistani women on television.

Keeping this in mind refresh your memory of Churails before we delve into the show in question.

New Show – Qatil Haseenaon Ke Naam

With the new show ready to air, we were of course excited about the trailer. But now, that we have watched it, we are not so sure of what to think of.

The trailer has a plethora of star cast; every scene is just brimming with it. In fact, you will see many from the Churails cast as well. Sarwat Gilani, Faiza Gillani, Meher Bano are some names that appeared in both projects. But is it just the cast that is similar? Not really.

When you see the teaser ad the trailer of the show, you will see that it gives a strong Churails vibe. In that show too, the women were unapologetic and well, violent in order to convey their stance. In this show as well, the women are violent and unapologetic about their violent behavior. The narrative, of course, was playing right into the hands of the stereotype; it negated that women need not be on the receiving end of the violence.

Have a look at the teaser of Qatil Haseenaon Ke Naam:

So, what did you think of it? Do you agree with us that we can get out of the violence against the gender paradox and explore new possibilities on the horizon? Or do you think that we are on the right trajectory? Let us know in the comments below.
