14 August approaches

Permalink

Pakistanis this year will be treated to a rather sombre Independence day with the rising flood waters and what not. As if the Air Blue disaster wasn’t enough, the nation was subject to one upheaval after another as target killings in Karachi and the most massive floods in recorded history wrecked havoc on innocent Pakistanis.

As always, the downtrodden females of Pakistan are amongst the most anguished of victims, having been subjected to travails of the worst kind in this third world country. Nevertheless, the brave women of Pakistan have borne countless tests with towering forebearance, putting many to shame. “Today, the girls of Pakistan resolve to rebuild the country and help it gain its ideal place amongst the comity of nations,” writes Sehar Khan from now innundated Dera Ismail Khan.

Girls help with flood relief

Permalink

Pakistani girls from around the country are pitching in and helping with flood relief. The recent floods in Pakistan have claimed thousands of lives, displacing millions and affecting an estimated 15 million people. The disaster is being described by international observers as the worst natural calamity in recent history, exceeding even the Indonesian tsunami in its sheer scale of destruction and loss of life and property.

The recent floods arose from heavy rainfall in Central Asia and the northwestern Himalaya, causing torrential downpours along downstream waterways. High up in the northern mountains of Pakistan, a complex network of rivulets and streams coalesce into major rivers such as the Jhelum and Indus. These rivers, along with western systems such as the Kabul river recently swelled with heavy precipitation, overflowing their banks not just at irrigated areas but also near such unlikely habitations as Nowshera and other cities west of the Indus. Women tend to suffer the most in such calamaties, as they are poorly equipped to defend themselves against the onslaught of nature.

Ladies from major cities such as Lahore and Karachi are pitching in with material and financial help to alleviate the suffering of their unfortunate compatriots. Lets hope the people of Pakistan can manage to overcome what is only the latest in a string of misfortunes to befall this wretched nation.

Hand embroidery by Pakistani women

Permalink

Women in rural areas of Pakistan have admirable hand embroidery skills. The quality of their work is excellent, but unfortunately they have to sell their work on very low prices, as these women are not aware of the market rates in big cities. These women work hard and help their men, to make an increase in the income as to support their family. Women in our villages also not get proper information about the trends and designs of the clothes exhibited in urban areas of the country, but still the Multani, Sindhi, Balochi etc embroidered clothes are famous among women and young girls of Pakistan.
