In India, it is somewhat better, I guess. But, I was shocked to see that products like baby milk formulas are sub par in quality churned out by companies like Nestle. People in big cities actually uses horribly overpriced imported milk formulas like Aptamil, Humana, Enfamil/Enfagrow, Hipp etc. Sad state of affairs. Even in China also people suspect their own products and baby milk formula black market exists.
You know what do shopkeepers say us when we buy clothe from them , they say baji don't worry its an indian clothe not a pakistani one that it would've a poor quality , even our shopkeepers know that our clothe isn't that best quality .
On food and milk , I agree it's a universal problem . Not to mention how many companies in pakistan were exposed of mixing injurious chemicals in such materials .
Its hard to find quality and original product in Pakistan as there is no check on quality. People prefer to buy cheap stuffs which appear great at first sight but are often made of cheap material . There are few shops which sell quality stuffs but they are expensive and you know most Pakistani cannot afford branded clothes, shoes, and others accessories . I actually bought many nike, adidas and next stuffs in UK shops which had this label " Made in Pakistan" on them. Many sports accessories in UK also come from Pakistan but they sell fake stuffs in local market. I went to saddar Rawalpindi and found that they were selling Adidas/nike trouser for Rs 700 and Rs 1000 . They were boht fake but he told me that cheaper one is fake while expensive one is original
I don't agree about fruits and vegetables though which are fresh, seasonal and more sweet in Pakistan unlike in west where you can buy most vegetables and fruits anytime during the year but don't taste as good , fresh as in Pakistan ..all these Pakistani mooli/daikon, carrot, Cabbage, corn, cucumber , okra, spinach. mango, banana , orange , watermelon and pomegranate were all seem much better in taste
You might be right about fruits but it also depends on honesty of fruit and vegetable sellers , sometimes they give you rotten ones and take huge money .
It has happened to me and my relatives few times , they give us rotten vegetables and fruits . Shame on them . How can a muslim do this , Allah destroyed one of our prophet's nation because they used to be very dishonest regarding trade and markets . Still we don't learn ,
You know in my city when brits used to rule some 80 years ago , after earthquake in quetta , thry built us some wooden earthquake proof rooms for each house for their safety and you won't believe me , still those rooms exist in many houses here. Plus , the lights they used in liaqat market of Quetta , they still exist and people today are taking advantages of those lights because of the the quality and honesty of brits , those things remain last . Brits also used to check the quality of fruits and vegetables provided nd would fire him who've been dishonest .
It's not about poverty or we've less resources etc etc , it's all about honesty that you've for your passion and job , unfortunately we lack this honesty therfore we getting sick and diseases .
Do you want to borrow mine
?
Consumers and sellers get what they pay for from the stock available to them. There's a lot of stuff I can get that Americans or even Brits can't. And I'm jealous of some stuff that they have readily available that I'd have to go internet-diving to find and import.
Lmao. I Would surely buy a Norways straightener one day . Products from West side usually are in best quality .
It's not about paying less , it's all about dishonesty and deception of local markerts.
Even if a product is of poor quality and you are unable to produce quality products then its better you should not make it or make any other small material from this that can be strong and have best quality at a time .
What use is poor quality when it doesn't last for a long time . Such people are deceiving everyone.
Depend on hairs I guess...some women have short and softer hair while others have long and thick which are not easy to manage or straightened
A straightener's job is to straighten the hair no matter thick or think or curvy or soft . It HAS to straighten the hair . And the straightener that fails to do its job properly should be boycotted .
Quality comes when multiple local product makers compete with hint of imported goods for options for consumers.
With our healthy local Manufacturing sector which distributes the material locally it is hard to improve things.
Pakistani Export quality is different compared to what is circulated internally in Pakistan
This standard is higher as this has to pass certain quality bench marks overseas.
The local check and balance is a bit weaker
World standard sometimes demand quality standard to be 90-95% out of 100
However in Pakistan's local market the assumption has become that Pakistani consumer will accept a product developed 65-75% quality standard.
This assumption can only be removed from local market once ample "competetion emerges" which froces 2-5 companies to compete against each other to make and sell a better product.
Heck we don't even trust our mobile companies and prefer westerner quality .
Samsung is heavier on Q mobile because we know out mobile won't last forever .

I know the feeling. I've been up watching the NHL Playoffs. No sleep tonight for me

Winter sports are not really popular at where I come from but for me hockey is an interesting sport. The only problem is that sometimes it's a bit too hard to see where the puck is.
