If Pakistan was a secular democracy, people wouldn't have to go live in Sweden to find a better life...

Pakistan still has no development

[@AB-qk5pb]

@@ProudMurtad both secularism and democracy are European ideologies. Why do u so much wanna be like white people? Suffering from an inferiority complex?😂 Btw Pakistan isn't Islamic country it is a divisive demonicratic country which is why Pakistanis are not united and it's also messed up.

Awesome. I have travelled to 35 to 40 countries (around 20-odd countries in Asia alone), being born and bred in the UK with Pakistani heritage, I have only visited Pakistan once a long time ago and I can say it is a great country to visit. The food is out of the world!!

If you get the chance to visit again I would definitely go for it! The food is definitely one of the best parts, such a variation of dishes! Thanks for watching 👍

[@Khan_O]

Jinnah super market and the sectors around it F6/F7 is the place where i was born and lived most of my life before moving 5000 miles away a few years ago. Watching this while going through Ramadan alone makes me so happy and sad at the same time. My heart will always be in this place. The city will always hold my heart. I wish i could one day move back to my home ❤ Btw did you guys have a chance hiking on the trails to the top of Margallas? I would definitely suggest hiking to the top and having breakfast at any of the restaurants on the top. Check out trail 3 if youre a beginner. And trail 5 if you like it to be a bit longer! Also checkout the cafes in F-11 for some good coffee and cheesecake. Like burning brownie. If you wanna checkout burgers, go for Rustic, CGC or Ministry of Burgers.

[@AshAndDan.]

I hope you make it to Islamabad soon! It’s a great city with lots to do! We didn’t do any hiking in the area, we just got a taxi up to the viewpoint as we were short on time to catch the sunset 😀 thanks for watching 👍

[@bushraali-yp7ye]

Must go out in the evening...its ramadan ,thats why its so quite.
