Asma Mirza

Cell Phone User in PakistanI posted this picture on Metroblog Islamabad earlier with the title “Can’t you see I’m Busy, Man!!!.” Wondering if ATP readers can suggest other (better) titles. Maybe a sheyr (verse) from Faiz, iqbal, Jalib… maybe even Ghalib?

ATP talks often about the state of the mobile industry in Pakistan. Well, this picture shows one face of what is happening with cell phones. As I wrote at Metroblog Islamabad:

Can you feel the marked difference??? A poor common pakistani, already a mobile user, collecting wood standing in front of parliament (highest office of the city on maybe the most expensive roads of the country) …!

WOW … amazing colors of Pakistan!!!

So, any suggestions?

    Ke ye toota hua tara mah-e-kamil na ban jaey
