PAKISTAN ZINDABAD
.
Everyone told me it was too dangerous to travel Pakistan. That it was not safe for a solo female on a bike. After now completing my journey across the country by myself, I can tell you my first hand experience, what Pakistan is really about.
.
PAKISTAN....be proud. That, as a country, a whole, you have made a remarkable imprint on my heart. No matter what hardships you’ve been through, you continue to shine. And the people’s love radiates across the land. Stand tall. And continue to support one another knowing that the people, is the true heart of Pakistan. Unite as one. Knowing your value in the world and what Pakistan stands for. PEACE and LOVE.
That, as a single foreign female in a Muslim predominant country, I never felt more safe, accepted, respected and loved. I’m often sent messages of gratitude and thanks for sharing my experiences here. For me, it’s not even a question of “thanks”. It’s a dutiful honor, a Gift from God. That I am able to share my experiences with the people here. For their hearts deserve to be seen. The world needs to be inspired. And the people of this nation have set a precedent for all of HUMANITY. So I am humbled that I can be the vessel to share this love. For it is I that should be grateful for the unconditional love I’ve received.
.
Happy PAKISTAN DAY
May you all be blessed

Pakistan relaxes visa regime for 48 countries

4:33 PM | April 27, 2019

Pakistan on Saturday announced to have a relaxed visa regime for 48 countries.

Out of these 48 countries, all nationals of the five countries will visit Pakistan without any visa. These countries include Nepal, Maldives, Tonga, Trinidad and Tobago and Western Samoa.

While citizens of 12 countries holding diplomatic passports shall be able to visit Pakistan without any visa.

Similarly, citizens of 31 countries holding diplomatic and official passports shall get a visa-free entry in Pakistan.

The Pakistan government has taken this step to promote tourism in Pakistan however it is interesting to note how tourism can be promoted when ordinary citizens have not been allowed to have visa-free entry.

Out of five countries that have been granted visa-free entry only Maldives and Nepal are well know countries while Tonga, Trinidad and Tobago and Western Samoa are less know countries and perhaps nobody would be interested to visit Pakistan all the way from a far off continent.

Analysts believe this visa regime may not help the government achieve desired results. It can only be beneficial when ordinary citizens are allowed visa relaxation, they opined.
