You see no one is asking you to bring your white friends to Karachi, and I really could care less which area is badly lit or not. You already ranted on this thread a while ago about how you hate this city. So no need to act like a broken tape recorder.

I'm just expressing my point of view on Karachi and some of the downfalls and major improvements the city needs to make. You guys are showing localized well maintained and modern areas these don't accurately represent the entire development level of the city.

Most of the pics I posted on the last page are from middle class areas in Northern/Central Karachi. Obviously if you want me to post pics of Orangi or Lyari then you can keep dreaming. If this was a thread for Rio de Janeiro I wouldn't post pics of favelas etc.
In the last decade Karachi has completely changed.

the biggest improvement has been the improvement of non elite class infrastructure in the past non PPP era, previously only clifton and DHA cantonment used to have nice roads but now the roads have been improved through out the city.

I'm not asking you to show those parts of town. If I were to show you pictures of let's say NYC or another major city I'm not going to show you pictures of a coffee house, I would show the larger city, boulevards, main streets and avenues, sky scrapers, things like that.

Any ways what can you expect the nation as a whole lacks behind true modernity, apparently only Islamabad comes close on a wholistic level.

Though I'm still a firm believer in the potential of Gwadar, given the right management and planning it could be the next Hong Kong. Like Gwadar Hong Kong started out as a fishing village.

its been debated a lot of times that orangi town is not the ghetto now, it has become a lot improved even roads

Karachi could be like Istanbul but it sucks in comparison...sorry to say though I've never been to KHI I can tell the level of development is lacking in comparison to other international cities considering KHI is the financial capital of PK, I would expect better.

These are pictures of old Sanaa, looks similar in style, terrain, and color as the picture of Orangi as you posted.

^^
Do visit it soon

 

[arushbhai]

I wouldnt visit karachi. Its ghetto as hell and everyone is affiliated with some kind of political party. Plus we have mobile snatchers who would kill you in a heart beat over a 1000 rps phone. Than we have target killings. Than we have an extremely corrupt govt that is not elected by the people, but its a huge family that runs the whole province. Lukman has done a show on that and he mentions how everyone in the sindh govt is related to each other.

Also more and more people from sindh, specially karachi and other war torn areas of pak are moving to lahore. Why? Lahore got a proper infrustructure, a policing system, a proper government etc. Lahores real estate is on the boom rightnow. Lahores economy is rising because elite community of pak prefers to live in lahore as its one of the most safest and cleanest city in pak.

Please keep your opinon with yourself. I only pray that KARACHI becomes free from all Political thugs like MQM, PPP, PML, JS, JI etc. & people should sincerely start loving karachi as it was. (Ameen)

Thanks
