I could not trace credit for this photo as it was saved in my hard disk from quite a time now
Pakistan’s Telecom industry has seen a boom in last decade with almost more than 90 million subscribers countrywide. I am unsure about where it stands on the ranks of world but i can see everybody using mobile here in Pakistan as seen in the picture is a dervesh talking on the mobile phone. We must also give credit to OEMs who have made the mobile set itself affordable for poor people. It would be interesting to note which OEM is popular amongst the poor people along with operator. Any researcher there?

A girl in a camp for IDPs looks amazed to see camera and being photographed. According to an estimate 48% of the IDPs are children. These children have no other choice to live in unhygienic conditions and are undergoing psychological trauma because of the conflict in their area.

With their first song Khushfehmi , Mauj created a stir with in the Pakistani music scene. It was Punk rock initiation in Pakistan, with incredibly weird but rather funny lyrics. The band disapperaed after this initial hit and after an exile of almost 3 years they came up with their second song ‘Paheliyan’, which has put them right back in the music circle. And after all these years, they finally released their first album ‘Now In Technicolor’ .
Rasonics (Houston) sums up the album;
The character of this album distinguishes Mauj from conventional rock or pop bands of the region for many reasons. First, they appeared from no where. I may not call them “new kids on the block”, but they were certainly rookies when their first video appeared a couple of years ago. Being new on the scene, they did not take the easy way out by going all out on tacky lyrics and music overworked by keyboards or synthesizers. Instead they were determined to stick with the basics and real instruments that is an evidence of creativity, maturity and hard work.

How do you feel about being a Muslim in India? Here is an interview of Shabana Azmi with Karan Thapar in a program Devils Advocate on India famous channel CNN-IBN. I am sure it will clear the misconceptions of many Muslims about the Incredible India.
The remaining clips of the interview are give below:
This picture is a scene from Rawalpindi’s famous Chaklala Scheme 3 market showing unsafe and hazardous electricity wires that pose a great threat to pedestrians and shoppers. I am sure there will be much more worse scenes in many other parts of our country but the question is why does conerned authorities not pay any attention to all this mess and wait for a big accident day?

Federal Board of Intermediate and Secondary Education FBISE has released the result of Part II yesterday. The reason i am writing this blog post is that the board has improved significantly, thanks to the usage of information technology. The result can now be viewed online by clicking here. Not only this, you can also access the result through an sms by sending a text message to 5050 with your roll number to see result: The following is the format of the sms.
FB eg.
FB 1110101
I remember in our times, you had to wait for the result to reach your college or you need to have some insider contacts in Board to ask them for the results. Even few shops used to charge Rs. 10 per result. things are improving but i must confess at a very slow rate. I was lucky though since i got my result in the newspaper being a position holder (a lil self praise)
After the arrival of 6 JF 17 earlier , a new chapter begins in the history of Pakistani Defence Production as News coming in that Pakistan Air Force (PAF) has started assembling of the first Pakistani-built JF 17 Thunder combat aircraft. Chief of the air staff, Air Chief Marshal Rao Qamar Suleman inaugurated the construction in a ceremony at Kamra.
This success will enhance Pakistan’s air power in the region and at international scale, Air Chief Marshal Rao Qamar Suleman said. He praised the Chinese cooperation and said that the joint Sino-Pak project is a living example of the cooperation between the two countries.
The News reports :
Chief of the air staff, Air Chief Marshal Rao Qamar Suleman inaugurated the construction in a ceremony at Kamra. Top military and civilian officials of Pakistan and China attended the ceremony. Pakistan and China signed an agreement for the production of 42 JF-17 fighters, which are expected to form the backbone of Pakistani aerial combat fleet in coming years.
The Pakistan Air Force has so far received eight JF-17 jets from China that are being used for testing and evaluation. The PAF plans to raise its first squadron of JF-17 jets by the end of this year.
Pakistan ambassador to France, Mr Jehanzeb Khan, is under the spot light of media for being the first ever DMG officer to be made Ambassador of Pakistan to France. The Foreign Office group is opposing this appointment since they consider it a DMG takeover of Foreign Services department. While the DMG side thinks that they are the perfect lot who are more competent then their colleagues in Foreign Services and hence the best officers should be assigned to the role instead of the people serving in the Foreign Services.
For the convenience of our readers, i will highlight that DMG and Foreign Services are two different fields chosen by the candidates while applying for CSS exam. DMG is involved with the management of districts while the Foreign Services personnel are involved with managing our foreign relations and hence both are two totally different fields and have nothing in common.
Today two different stories emergedin The News, one by the DMG officer which was published by Ansar Abbassi and the other story is published by Marianna Babar about the possible mutiny in Foreign Services group agaisnt the appointment of Jehanzeb Khan. I will first look into the statement of DMG officers as narrated by Ansar Abbassi. You can find the full story by clicking here.
In the article the DMG officer which came in defence of the appointment of Jehanzeb Khan presented his case on the basis of merit. According to him, Jehanzeb Khan is more competent then any person in the whole Foreign Services Group of Pakistan and this is one big reason that Jehanzeb Khan, a DMG officer, should lead the Pakistan Embassy in France. He further challenges the achievements of the Foreign Services Group for the last 60 years. Not only this, he take the liberty of presenting another argument that Jehanzeb Khan is a Pashtun (I am also Pashtun) and that is one strong credential that he can explain the War on Terror in a better manner to the French people and their government.
Now here is what i think as a layman!
DMG Officers don’t believe in specializations and hence they believe a person managing a district can manage country foreign policy and defend the policies of its government in Foreign capitals. I wonder if that is the case, DMG officers will surely go to a Cardiologist when they find their eye sight weak and they go to Dentists when they have pain in their leg because a competent doctor is all that matters and not his area of specilization.
