Dear Readers,
While All Things Pakistan has remained alive and online, it has been dormant since June 11, 2011 - when, on the blog's 5th anniversary, we decided that it was time to move on. We have been heartened by your messages and the fact that a steady traffic has continued to enjoy the archived content on ATP. While the blog itself will remain dormant, we are now beginning to add occasional (but infrequent) new material by the original authors of the blog, mostly to archive what they may now publish elsewhere. We will also be updating older posts to make sure that new readers who stumble onto this site still find it useful.
We hope you will continue to find ATP a useful venue to reflect upon and express your Pakistaniat. - Editors

nice one
picture may have been doctored. Donkey’s tail, the part which shows beneath the cart shaft, and the hooves are not dyed. Interestingly, donkey looks shaved also. Wonder why?
In Pakistan they dye little chicks bright colors and sell them to children. They only survive a few hours or days, usually. To me this is both wasteful and cruel.
I visited a family once and the kids had left the bright pink dead chicks under the tables in the sitting room, and Mom scolded them. I think lack of care and mishandling kill the chicks but it could be the dye too. Can’t say for sure.
Owais Mughal,
@just could ‘nt resist:
filbadih arz hay
Boli, electionon say pehlay, har aik nay laga li
pinky Ghadey nay josh mein, holi apni mana li
Rafay
A donkey dyed pink is as unnatural and unsightly, as a Pakistani man dyed blond. (Watch the newly appointed Pakistan Foreign Office spokesman in his weekly press conferences in Islamabad.)
ROFL =)
Couldnt have been prettier :>
