Who should one commend here. The donkey for his running skills, the driver for his panache, or the photographer for excellent shot. We have raked our head for a caption that would do justice to the shot. Can you suggest one?
This photo is courtesy of Jahangir Khan at Associated Press of Pakistan. Subject is a donkey driven race cart seen near Jinnah Bridge Karachi on July 25, 2008.
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

Poor little donkey is just a baby. And with such a load! However he seems to be taking it all in stride…..so to speak.
Haha…! Nihari, very funny.
As they say, nice things are just around the corner, if one is willing to look. Thumbs up to the photographer for finding this one for us.
lol…Good one Nahari!
This is just a delightful picture! I couldn’t help but smile at such a site. Hats off to the donkey and the jockey.
I have to say that I prefer Pakistaniat’s title for this picture…it is perfect.

In the land of the pure, when donkeys will fly, Zardari will become President
