A for [pine]Apple

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?

    Pakistan today is a victim of poverty and extremism. We praise the army for carrying out successful operation in all the seven agencies and inshalla we will very soon be successful in khurrum agency too. But every individual has the responsibility to give space to moderate views in ones mind to grow and let the nation grow.

    Variation on the same theme:

    Aag hai, aulad -e- Ibrahim hai namrood hai
    Kya kisi ko phir kisi ka imtihan maqsood hai
