Walking down a street in Singapore, I came across this poster. If you are going to say ‘yeah – so what?’ or what is the maqsad (purpose) of this post then my answer would be imagine if you are walking on a street outside Pakistan and you see this poster – then won’t you get stuck for few moments? That is what happened to me. I got stuck on this poster for few seconds and took this photo. I was not expecting a Pakistani promotion on a street in Singapore. I also didn’t know that Pakistan is the 2nd largest exporter of clothing in the World. After looking at the poster, I saw a world of potential. Do you?
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

Pakistan second largest exporter of garments and the biggest exporter of Jihadis an terrorists in the world
Very nice. Wish our own people could also see the good things instead of always being so negative.
clothing is extremely vague, so i guess they can claim anything (and define it in a way to make Pakistan the second biggest exporter). however, we need to work on our industries. export led growth is probably the way forward. we’re big exporters of many goods, but we need to add value and reach out to rich markets.
Pakistan is the first biggest exporter of something else…This is hardly a secret
Thank you HSBC. Please have your facts rechecked.
