All I want it a clean Karachi to begin with. Its a costly excersize, if anybody knows anything about cleanliness related programs please share.

Development is a prerequisite for any cities progress, but the amount of garbage Karachi produces and fails to dispose thru proper channels really does my nut in.

I don’t know how Singapore has done it. Their city is squeaky clean.

Cities don't make people. People make cities. The city is merely reflection of the culture of the residents. Change the culture, change the city.

And please please please make Karachi+dadu a separate state as well. Just to lower the corruption by pppppppp. And give Karachi to jamat e Islami again.

I hope not a single rupee of this goes to Sindh government otherwise Billoo Rani and Abu Jaan will siphon it off to London and Dubai.
 
.
Karachi needs effective rubbish collection but it won't be enough if selfish and lazy assholes continue to throw their households rubbish on the streets.

This isn't exclusive to Karachi. People would dispose appropriately if there was a proper disposal mechanism in place and enforcement against improper disposals.
 
.
The more effective the municipality of a city is, the cleaner and well maintained it will be.

Karachi need metro system and we can asked Japan to build one. They offers us more then 10 years back and we need to finalized that with PPP. We need clean water as well

In August 2012, JICA agreed to a US$ 2.5 billion loan to the Karachi Urban Transport Corporation, which would oversee the rebuilding and refurbishment of KCR.The plans called for upgrades and rebuilding of the 50 kilometer long circular loop line which would operate 24 trains facilitating 700,000 commuters, making 3-minute stops at 23 stations. However, this plan never materialized.
