If we compare Africa and South Asia with Europe we can see that cities of poor countries are not really a hit with tourists. In richer countries tourists can stroll in the streets and sample the foods and drinks they offer. But in poor countries the streets are foul and one cant really hang around even when there are sites around. Urban tourism is i think largely dependent upon the quality of street life that the cities and towns offer.

Posting such threads is great. But all the positive things mentioned are judged relative to other countries vying for the same tourist. Yes, Pakistan is great, but how does it rank relative to other destinations? The answer is clear from the numbers of tourists coming to the country.

I don't know if any diaspora Pakistanis can back me up on this but my understanding is that flights to Pakistan are often expensive. This is going to be an obstacle to tourism from many parts of the world, although being close to China and the Arab Gulf states is definitely an asset.

It is not just the expensive flights. It is also the lousy hotels, poor hygienic conditions and difficult traveling within the country, among other things. Remember, all these are competing against other countries in the tourist marketplace.

You are rebel
The Rebel



The Rebel :


Do you know anyone who always disagrees with you or your friends or likes to do the opposite of what everyone thinks they should do? Think of a word to describe such a person. Discuss with your partner some of the things such a person generally does. Now read the poem.


When everybody has short hair,

The rebel lets his hair grow long.


When everybody has long hair,

The rebel cuts his hair short.


When everybody talks during the lesson,

The rebel doesn’t say a word.


When nobody talks during the lesson,

The rebel creates a disturbance.


When everybody wears a uniform,

The rebel dresses in fantastic clothes.


When everybody wears fantastic clothes,

The rebel dresses soberly.


In the company of dog lovers,

The rebel expresses a preference for cats.


In the company of cat lovers,

The rebel puts in a good word for dogs.


When everybody is praising the sun,

The rebel remarks on the need for rain.


When everybody is greeting the rain,

The rebel regrets the absence of sun.


When everybody goes to the meeting,

The rebel stays at home and reads a book.


When everybody stays at home and reads a book,

The rebel goes to the meeting.


When everybody says, Yes please,

The rebel says, No thank you.


When everybody says, No thank you,

The rebel says, Yes please.


It is very good that we have rebels.

You may not find it very good to be one.

How does agreement or disagreement help tourists come to Pakistan? What I said above is correct.

Those numbers are mixed together on purpose to pad the number of "tourists" that can be shown as coming to Pakistan. In the true sense of the word, the total number of tourists coming to Pakistan is minuscule compared to other countries, and indeed the much-mentioned-but-never-realized potential of Pakistan in this field.

I believe that is also a reason in which there are less 5 star hotels under construction or available in pakistan as they can't find customers so to have run on profits and business expansion.Indian metro city have more 5 star hotels than whole 5 star hotels existing in pakistan.
