Toyota Corolla has dominated sales for almost a decade. So much so that it even surpassed Suzuki Mehran sales to become the best-selling car in the country.

Known as one of the best variants from the automotive manufacturer, the car has now found itself with a drastic 58% decrease in sales.

Ever since the introduction of the 11th gen. Corolla in 20014, Indus Motor Company (IMC) sold more than 50,000 units in just one fiscal year.

Toyota sold another 57,452 units in 2015-16, another 52,676 units in 2016-17, and 56,720 units from 2018-19.

However, due to the economic conditions and an increase in price, Toyota has only managed to sell 5,503 units compared to 13,196 units in the first quarter of the fiscal year.

The average sales of the brand stood at around 4,727 units (2018-19) whereas now it stands at 5,503 units compared to 13,196 units.

Jami Calls Out Soul Brothers Pakistan for Being a Toxic Male Group

jami

Jami Moor, famous Pakistani filmmaker, has been in the spotlight for the past week after he opened up to the public about his #MeToo story.

Jami has always spoken for assault and abuse victims in the past, regardless of the nature of the abuse or the gender of the parties involved.

Jami came out about his story through a twitter thread, and his story immediately caught attention from media, influencers, and fans and follower in general.

#MeToo: Filmmaker Jami Opens Up about Being Sexually Assaulted By Media Giant

Explaining his own story, he also mentioned that one of the reasons he had always supported such stories because he could relate to them on a personal level.

He received all sorts of mixed reactions from social media as a result of opening up, and was thankful for all the support and kindness extended towards him.

While his story was covered by many tabloids, some kept Jami’s truth intact but some chose to either modify it or removed the story altogether which visibly upset the director.

Recently Jami took to facebook to call out a facebook group called Soul Brothers Pakistan.

 

He called the group toxic in his post but did not mention exactly what had caused him to make that comment.

However, it seemed clear by the comments by other men that Jami was not the only one who thought like that. Take a look:

“So much agree to this but it gives you a window also of how our patriarchal, conservative and regressive society actually is!”

“Someone had once added me to this group and I was kicked out within a week for calling out the sheer jahaalat of its members.”

“Most posts are pseudo-woke or completely lacking any self awareness. Have it on mute.”

Are you of the same opinion on this male only, private facebook group?

Let us know in the comments.

Founded in 2016 by a group of visual art professionals and educators, Karachi Bienalle Trust(KBT)  a not-for-profit platform to promote creativity, innovation and criticality in the visual arts in the metropolis

It works closely with a network of local and international cultural, educational and philanthropic organizations. A flahsgip project of the KBT, Karachi Biennale (KB) has been designed to use art as a vehicle to discover, discuss and respond to Karachi.

Having made its debut in 2017 – highlighting ‘Witness’ as a theme – Karachi Biennale has returned this year with the theme, ‘Ecology’.

One of the installations that garnered a lot of social media attention was Killing Fields of Karachi’ for being shut down forcibly on Sunday by alleged LEAs.

PEMRA Directs Anchors Not to Give Opinions on Talk Shows

The display was by female artist Adeela Suleman, and it mourned the 444 killings done by Rao Anwer, former SSP Malir.

The lower hall of the building, where part of the exhibit was displayed, has reportedly been sealed as confirmed by the artist herself.

Social Activist and Lawyer, Jibran Nasir has never been afraid of speaking up for justice. Hence he held a press conference alongside other members of civil society to discuss why the display was taken down.

“YOU ALL MUST HAVE SEEN PILLARS INSTALLED HERE WHICH SYMBOLISE KARACHI’S BLOODY HISTORY — THE 444 MURDERS WHICH WERE COMMITTED BETWEEN 2011 AND 2018 BY RAO ANWAR. THIS IS NOT A MATTER OF DISPUTE. THIS IS A FACT WHICH IS PART OF POLICE RECORD,”

“THERE ARE GRAVES HERE MARKING THE DEATHS AND THERE WAS A VIDEO PROJECTION WHICH CONTAINED VISUALS OF NAQEEBULLAH’S FATHER, AND VISUALS OF THE PLACE WHERE NAQEEBULLAH AND THREE OTHERS WERE MURDERED.

“AT 11 IN THE MORNING, SOME PEOPLE CAME HERE WHO INTRODUCED THEMSELVES AS BELONGING TO SENSITIVE ORGANISATIONS AND THEY SAID THIS ROOM SHOULD BE CLOSED AND PUT UNDER A LOCK, OTHERWISE ALL THE MATERIALS, LAPTOPS, PROJECTORS, PAINTINGS, WILL BE DESTROYED.”

 

Suleman is an associate professor and head of the Fine Art Department at Indus Valley School of Art and Architecture.

She said that two persons in a civilian dress appeared at around 10am and “pressurised” the administration of the Frere Hall to stop the exhibition, otherwise, they would forcibly stop it.

Addressing the press conference, to speak about her exhibit’s closure, she said:

“MY AIM WAS JUST TO TELL A STORY. I WAS, IN FACT, REPEATING AN EVENT WHICH TOOK PLACE A YEAR EARLIER.”

“IT [THE DISPLAY] CONTAINED NO SUCH THING WHICH WAS NOT ALREADY PART OF GENERAL PUBLIC KNOWLEDGE,” SHE SAID, VISIBLY UPSET.

“IF ARTISTS CAN NOT EXPRESS THEMSELVES IN THEIR OWN WAY, THEN I REALLY CAN’T SAY HOW WE WILL EVER HAVE ANY CREATION OF ART AND WHO WE WILL HAVE TO TAKE PERMISSION FROM.”

Here’s what DIG South Sharjeel Kharal told Dawn:

“WE HAVE NOT RECEIVED ANY COMPLAINT FROM ARTIST OR ORGANISERS FORMALLY OR INFORMALLY ABOUT [THE MATTER].”

“THIS THING HAS BEEN BROUGHT TO OUR NOTICE AND WE ARE LOOKING INTO IT,” ADDED THE CHIEF OF THE SOUTH ZONE POLICE.

What was worse, Jibran’s press conference was interrupted and Jibran was physically attacked during his address.

The unknown men threw away mics of media and tried to censor them.

A video snippet from the press conference shows Nasir being interrupted by a man who later introduced himself as DG (director general) Parks.

Nasir, however, refused to budge as expected from a man like him.

Now, social media is not only furious at the removal of the art display but also at the way Jibran was attacked.

Many fans, followers, and influential personalities have began protesting it on social media with the aim to fail the LEA’s attempts at silencing the artist and the activist.

What are your thoughts? Let us know in the comments.

Steel Production is Actually Eco-Friendly at Amreli Steels!

Amreli Steels

Industrial growth is one of the key aspects of a country’s development. However, there is a common misperception about industries such as steel manufacturing, that they are harmful to the environment.

Many organizations are doing everything they possibly can to save planet Earth.

From adopting eco-friendly processes to conducting clean-up drives, reputable companies such as Amreli Steels are taking concrete steps towards making steel-making eco-friendly.

Here are 5 eco-friendly facts about Amreli Steels:

1. Amreli Steels is one of Pakistan’s largest recyclers

Steel has remarkable properties making it easy to remove steel from waste streams. Amreli Steels takes recycling a step further and refines the metal to produce the highest quality of steel. In fact, 42% of the world’s crude steel is produced from recycled material! This makes Amreli Steels one of the largest recyclers in Pakistan.

2. The Water Used at Amreli Steels’ Plant is 100% Recycled

The production of steel requires a large quantity of water, mainly for cooling purposes. However, in a water-stressed country like Pakistan, this can be difficult to do. Amreli Steels ensures that all the water used at its plant is 100% recycled. They use a state-of-the-art treatment plant without compromising on the quality of the steel, nor depleting the water supply.

3. Amreli Steels’ Manufacturing Processes Reduce Waste

As a leading name in Pakistan, the company ensures that it makes sustainable choices every day. Amreli Steels was quick to adopt the 5th generation red ring technology at its plant, which improves product quality and yield. The improved yield means a reduction in waste.

4. The Company has taken Steps to Reduce Energy Consumption and CO2 Emissions

Since 1960, the amount of energy required to produce one ton of steel has been reduced by more than 60%.  Compared to other regular steel manufacturers, Amreli Steels generates less CO2 per ton of steel.

5. Air Pollution Controller Installed

There is a common misperception that steel manufacturing leads to air pollution. Without the right precautions, that would be true. Responsible companies know and understand this, which is why the Amreli Steels plant is installed with a PLC-based APC (air pollution controller). It reduces the carbon footprint by capturing fumes and dust for safe disposal, instead of releasing them in the air.
