I've been reading up on how we're approaching various situations since Munir has come in, the man is incompetent and utterly failed in every single thing he attempted.

He had a meeting with major businesses in Pakistan on getting them to grow the economy, failed.

He tried to mediate the Iran-US conflict, failed.

He tried to meet MBS and get Saudi funding, failed.

Munir was trying top position Pakistan as a mediator between the US and Iran, this failed and it moved to Qatar to play the middle man, since they have better ties to Iran.

I feel he's going to drag us in somehow to the conflict, he did the bombings on Afghanistan and I feel it slowed down due to him realising the US wasn't going to give him any support there, but in Iran he will get a ton of backing by the Trump cabinet and brownie points.

Like Musharraf when he allowed the US to use bases in Pakistan against Afghanistan, I feel Munir would prefer we get stuck into a conflict so it allows him to stay in power longer.

Hello, I'm a self taught pakistani artist. Here is some of my work, I would love to hear your opinion.

if you're not Boycotting its okay, your deed. but please ATLEAST don't promote the boycotted brands !

why is it so difficult for you to stay silent when these companies introduce discounts and offers when it's so easy for you to stay silent when hundreds of innocent lives including children are murdered daily.

Found a turtle on a busy road here in Islamabad. I have never even seen a turtle before. I looked it up on gemini, it instructed to leave it as is or in a pond nearby, so I drove 5 minutes to a nearby pond and left it there. I left it near the pond, and it went into the pond by itself

Hi everyone can you guys please share some baby boy names?

Assalamualaikum

I have a 9 and an 8 yo nephew and niece (two more nieces but much younger) and I want them to fall in love with reading.

They have just begun going on a dangerous road of online games and yt shows, and I intend to change that!

Anyone who has gone through this before with any worthwhile suggestions is highly appreciative.

Some background on kids:

My nephew is a good structural thinker, he likes to make interesting stuff and work with legos. Frankly I am not that worried about him, as he usually watches very interesting stuff online and has the willpower to stop when he wants.

My niece however is very susceptible to letting her mind wander and be more playful and easy going. She yet has to show a spark. And she's showing dangerous tendency of watching stuff snd completely relying on video content to do the thinking for her. She shuts her brain and just goes with the flow, without contemplating the meaning of stuff that is happening around her.

Any info on strategies, types of books and changes in environment that may help?

Hi ppl, hope you guys are doing okay. So I own a laptop store and yesterday a scam attempt was made of a pretty expensive gaming laptop. How it started is we got a message on OLX of a man asking for details of an ad, he spent some time browsing thru options and eventually landed on one and spent a fair bit of time taking all the info and asking questions about it. He wanted it to be delivered by bus to his son as he himself was abroad in Saudi. As the value of the laptop was somewhat high, we refused to send it by bus. He kept on convincing even tho we told him we could send it thru TCS or Leopard if he gave his address. When he failed to convince us, he said he'll send someone over to pick it up. Eventually a guy showed up, claiming to be his employee, and the man sent a picture of standing in a bank line saying it'll only take 5 more minutes. After that, he sent a video of a physical receipt showing that the payment has been transferred will be in our account in a few minutes. After waiting for around 30 minutes, during which he was pressuring us to give the laptop to his employee since it was his son's birthday the next day and wanted the laptop asap and to just wait for the payment to arrive. We contacting our bank and they confirmed that no payment had been credited to our account. We told him this and he said to wait even longer since the max estimated delivery time on the receipt was 12 hours.

During this time I chatted with the employee who cracked under pressure and revealed that he was just an inDrive driver and the guy had his WhatsApp number thru which he communicated with him and told him to act as his employee and pick up the laptop. He started saying that it could be a fraud and to be ware about stuff like this since he was a victim as well. By now the buyer had stopped replying to messages and we started to realize that the driver was probably right.

Oh and the guy was talking to us with a Saudi number, but using a Paki number with the driver and thats the number I wanna track. I tried those sites that show the info of sims registered before 2022 and I couldnt find it there. I wanna make sure its not a dead end before I report it to the relevant authorities. Actually... I'm not sure about that since there have been many different scams here in the market and authorities havent done anything about em, and I dont wanna go thru the legal hassles cause I got a lot going on rn. Ig I just wanna see where this trail leads to. He deleted all the WhatsApp messages, but I still got that receipt, it has his name on it (which is prolly fake) and the Saudi number he was using with us.

If you can help, please do. If I actually find something worthwhile, I'll report him to do my part so he cant do this to others who might fall for it.

for the past few weeks my body has been completely out of my control. i’m having severe panic attacks and the physical symptoms are terrifying. my heart races so fast i genuinely feel like it’s going to explode or stop. my breathing gets so heavy and shallow that it feels like i’m suffocating. i can't catch my breath.

the worst part is the shaking. my legs shake so violently that i can't stand or walk properly when the attacks hit. if i'm on my bed, they just hit against the mattress uncontrollably. my hands tremble so badly i can't hold a pen to write. it feels like my whole nervous system is short-circuiting.

it's gotten so bad that i can't study for my o level exams. i have my last caie for this session (cs p2 on this monday) but i can't focus, i can't sleep, i have no appetite, and i've lost weight because of it. my body feels so weak and depleted. i try to do past papers, but the anxiety just takes over and i physically can't finish them.

i feel so incredibly alone in this. i tried to hug my ammi today, and i was shaking and couldn't breathe. she kept asking what was wrong but i couldn't get the words out. i just went back to my room.

i'm writing this because i can't find the words to say it out loud when it's happening. i'm terrified. i need help. i can't fight this by myself anymore.

plus with this, im getting constant thoughts of death and dying and i don’t even know what to do with myself anymore…

i’ve stopped reaching out or responding to people and ofc the ppl ik have taken it as silence from my end that paper stress mein hoga but it’s much more than that…

Any advice and tips on visiting Pakistan as a western person? Areas to visit? Things to try? Best SIM card?

I mean do they teach his philosophy deeply or even on a basic level????
Cuz i see islamic scholars misinterpret many times and they take him and his philosophy emotionally rather being critical and trying to understand.

Hey everyone I made a subreddit r/PakistaniDentists as I wanted to discuss something dentistry related and realized there was so dedicated subreddit. Idk how many Pakistani dentists/dental students are there on reddit but I'd appreciate if you guys would join the community. Looking forward to seeing some of you there!

Hi guys, i 24F graduated this year w a bachelors in biomedical engineering abroad and recently came back to pakistan. I know this field isnt particularly popular in pakistan but im hoping my foreign degree would give me an edge in the market and in other departments ie. regulations etc surrounding engineering.

Im sort of clueless on pakistani work culture, interviewing (one scheduled soon) and just generally working as a professional in pakistan. Lately there have been some job vacancies but ive got zero responses. I feel like the fact that im not integerated with the market and work culture here is limiting my chances of getting hired? I saw some job adverts with "male candidates only" disclaimer and it let me down so much. Moreover, my urdu isnt the best and im definitely not aware of any urdu coporate lingo if there is any.

Ive got exceptional language skills and just a very can do attitude when it comes to tasks because thats just what i did during uni but what i keep hearing about toxic work culture in pakistan, bootlicking, and just facing hurdles as a fresh grad, i feel like i would have zero tolerance towards it and just drop out. I worked an informal internship at a local hospital a year ago, and my experience was close to bad, i was just not "seen" by any of the employees there.

I really am ambitious and all these applications and rejections (from multiple countries btw) have demotivated me so much.

Looking for hope, tips and advice on how to combat this depressing, if otherwise job hunt.
