So, I have started to do this, at least in my own area because it usually takes me 1 minute, or sometimes 30 seconds, then I park. I never drive on the wrong side (and that also in my own area) if it will go beyond 1 minute. Will it make it right? NO. Because people NOT living here will still find it an inconvenience... but it does save A LOT OF MY TIME (because then it is getting stuck at the back and narrow roads and what not).
If I am EXTRA EXTRA careful... should I do it.
I live near Disco Bakery. And I usually drive on the wrong side to reach our parking spot on the main road instead of having to drive around at the back - KDA market backside roads - to appear on the right side of the road to reach the parking spot from the right side...
There is always TOO MUCH TRAFFIC here.
I placed an order on Ali express which costed $158. It consisted of 28-30 different items from different sellers and from each seller the maximum order amount is below $20.
i wanted to know if I would be charged customs duty on my package in my case?
Will my entire order be delivered in one package or will I get it in several deliveries?

In a discussion with my mother about mental health, she told me Pakistanis don't like going to mental health professionals ke unhe koi paghal na kahe. The conversation steered from there but had me taken aback. Personally, I went to a psychiatrist for the first time, got diagnosed with anxiety and prescribed medication. That one session helped me learn a lot about myself.
Why is mental health such a taboo?
Where can I find chemists of Pakistan who can help me create custom formulations for different types of cleaners? Eg cleaning solutions for cars, leathers, wood surfaces, glass cleaners etc? I'm interested in buying their formulations and even outsourcing bulk production to them. However, I am unable to find anything online. All such chemists are from abroad and I want to prioritise local expertise. Local chemists are only interested in medical or cosmetic production. Help a brother out!
Hey Guys, as the title says, i want to know how to get into foreign services of Pakistan?

Looking for a track suits manufacturer in Pakistan with good quality and reasonable prices, anyone got any suggestions?
I don't understand this one thing. Why, just why are Pakistanis so insensitive towards animals?
we pride ourselves on being a "Muslim" country, yet treat animals in the worst ways imaginable. I've seen such horrible cases. Cats, dogs, cattle, donkey, birds. Even poultry, I saw the condition of some chicken shops and it made me sick.
do Pakistanis not realize these are living breathing creatures? that they will testify against us on the day of judgement? that Allah will ask us about every single cruelty we committed against them? They are "Beyzubaan" they cant raise their voice against us, they are at the mercy of humans. Its so heartbreaking.
I don't understand why Pakistanis treat animals so poorly. what is the point of calling ourselves "Ashraf-ul-Makhlooqat" ?
edit: are you guys actually this tone deaf or are you genuinely living under a rock? Do you seriously think that there is any concept of animal rights in Pakistan? please keep your toxic patriotism to yourself and learn to accept criticism. I'm not here to debate my post, nor is it a generalisation of Pakistanis. It is the bitter truth. We are all playing a role in this. Do better.
Why does the chicken Pakistan have a different texture to other countries. My experience is uk, France and the US. They all have chicken that is similar in texture when you chew it. Pakistani chicken feels more…chewy I guess. This is when it’s home cooked or from restaurants. What gives?
So I got a message like this from 8558, although I don't have a jazz cash account. What kind of a scam might this be? Anyone else has had any experience with this?
I would like to volunteer a few days of my time. Can you please suggest any welfare organizations that accept remote volunteer work? I'm open to doing any sort of work. I would really appreciate it.
Has anyone else experienced this? I’d love to hear your thoughts!
What hurdles did you face before preparing for the test and after that?
I would be grateful for your helpful responses and suggestions. Thank you!
I don't know why it seems like members of our community need to visit a baby in the immediate days after birth, to the point that the mother and family become utterly exhausted. Is there no concept of allowing the family some space and time to bond and rest? I know we understand the significance of the 40 days or the chilla. Why do people feel the urge to go and sit at the house where a baby was born for hours? Why do they feel the urge to hold a newborn baby even though it has no immune system yet? You can't say anything because then you will be seen as cutting off ties. It seems like other cultures understand concept of letting the new mother rest. How can one rest if you have guests every single day for the first few weeks after birth? A relative of mine had a baby 2 weeks ago and their guests have been nonstop. They are doing a haqiqa party now just to be done with guests. Do people lack any self awareness?
So pretty much how much title says
Hello everyone,
I am an Arab-American Christian dating a non-religious Pakistani-English man. While he and his mother were born in the United Kingdom, his father was born in Pakistan. His father and grandparents are devout muslims, however all of his 3 sisters work in England, go out alone and to concerts alone, and don’t wear hijabs, same with his mother, although she wants him to memorize the Quran (which he doesn’t want).
Does anyone have any tips on meeting them for the first time? I am Arab which helps a bit but I am also Christian. Should I bring sweets? I plan to wear loose pants, a nice shirt, and a long sweater (similar to an abaya). I know she likely won’t approve at first just due to the fact I’m not Pakistani, but does anyone have any tips to help her like me? I can cook haha!
Thank you so much
Before anyone reads, please dont just start hating. I am at a very confused and low point in life. Financially and mentally.
I graduated in july in BSc CS. Havent found jobs or internships yet. I am planning on going for masters in fall 2025. I graduated with a decent gpa and one of the main scholarships im targeting is GREAT british council scholarship which is partial but itll help me out alot (i wont have living costs in uk as ill be living with relatives)
The main criteria of selection is gpa but also personal statement. Demonstrating how you are active in your field and can make good use of the scholarship and how itll help you. People have told me ive to tell them what exactly i want to do etc. Now my profile is very mediocre. And thats why i am so lost. I havent done anything ordinary. its such a privilege to focus just on studies/career just for the sake of making something out of yourself rather than constantly having to worry about where to pay fee from and doing side jobs in sales etc to take care of myself while studying.
anyway even scholarship aside, i feel so unfulfilled. I have different plans everyday and then i realise i cant pursue them, alone especially.
How should i improve my profile and be more active in the tech space and have more extra curricular. I cant execute my app ideas etc because again, hard to manage alone (not just projects but turning them into startups with users). Should i join non profit tech organisations or start one myself (again no connections so how). Because i tried joining but the only roles they have are of students ambassadors and i am not one anymore. (like pakistan women in computing). Like what is it at all that i can be a part of and do? I am constantly applying for jobs too but as they dont seem to be working, i wanna do something else while im at it to demonstrate my abilities.
