🇵🇰Pakistani President Asif Ali Zardari attended commissioning PNS HANGOR at Sanya, southern China's Hainan province. It's for sure that the advanced submarine will strengthen Pakistani naval forces' capacity of protecting economic lifelines. The submarine cooperation reflects the high-level of🇨🇳China-🇵🇰#Pakistan strategic partnership.

@MushtaqBilalPhD Hahahahaha...wat an interesting piece to read
English

Recently, a Pakistani friend of mine (we'll call him Danial) got a postdoc at the Lund University in Sweden.
We met at his office for coffee. I congratulated him and we caught up.
"I need you to do me a favor, Mushtaq," he said.
"Of course."
"Please don't tell anyone in my family or friends that I work at the Lund University," he said.
"Why? What happened?"
"Man, just don't mention where I work especially if a mutual friend asks," he said.
I was taken aback initially. But then I put two and two together and realized why he didn't want me to tell anyone about his workplace.
In Pakistan, the word "lund" means penis.
Being the reliable friend that I am, the very next day I rang up Danial's dad and eight of our mutual friends.
I told them that Danial was doing well in Sweden and dropped the name of his university ever so nonchalantly.
Things went exactly as planned.
His dad called him and asked how he was settling in at the Schlong Institute of Dick Studies.
Another friend asked Danial how his project would contribute to the research at the Weiner Academy of Sausage Sciences.
Every few days, someone from Pakistan calls him to ask how his research at the Phallus Institute of Dong Dynamics is going, or if he was looking for a permanent job at the Johnson Institute for Shaft Studies.
He has started looking for a new job.
Since Lund was causing Danial all sorts of problems I decided to help him. The poor thing took all this Lund stuff really badly.
Apparently, some of our friends tried setting him up with a beautiful British-Paksitani woman, Yasmine, who was visiting Copenhagen.
Now Danial has limited social skills when it comes to women and Yasmine was way out of his league. Yet he was able to charm her somehow and took her out for a date in a trendy restaurant in Copenhagen.
Things came to a head when she asked him where he was currently based.
"Lund," he said. "I wasn't sure initially, but now I quite like Lund."
She thought he was a closeted gay looking for a lavendar marriage and was trying to deceive her.
She got up, threw her wine in his face, and stormed out of the restaurant but not before yelling "You sick little perverted motherfucker" in the poshest British accent.
Anyway, I decided to help him get out of Lund. I asked my colleagues here in Danish academia if they were hiring any researchers.
Søren, one of my colleagues, said that he was. A marine ecologist, he had recently won a big grant to conduct research in the North Sea.
I showed Søren Danial's Google Scholar profile. He was clearly impressed.
"He's exaclty the kind of researcher we need," Søren said.
So, I rang up Danial and told him that Søren here in Copenhagen is interested in hiring him.
"Yes," He said without even letting me finish. "I'll take the job. Just get me out of Lund, man, it's hard, Lund's hard."
I told Søren that Danial was willing to accept the job. As we parted, I asked him what his research project was about.
"Effekten af bundtrawl i Nordsøen," Søren replied in Danish.
In English, this means "The effect of bottom trawling in Nordic sea."
The only problem with this is that the Danish word for bottom is "bund."
In Pakistan, bund means buttocks.
Danial will join Søren's project in a few weeks.
This time around I'm not going to tell his father or our friends anything about his job.
Just kidding. I've already told them and they've started working on names like Keister Institute of Booty Sciences. It's going to be great
I also took the opportunity to update Yasmine about Danial's upcoming project on bundtrawling.
"I knew it," she said. "I already knew it."

@ursaysx Meet that guy once to see for urself. May be, he is not that incompatible. If u r going to live abroad, u won't be bothered by his large family.
Dont listen to people. Your heart will tell you anyway what's right for u.

I am a 32-year-old unmarried woman from a Syed family in Pakistan. In my family and culture, girls are expected to marry within the Syed caste, while boys are often allowed to marry outside the caste. I am well educated, hold an MS degree in Finance, and work in the government sector. I come from a big city and have grown up in a certain environment and lifestyle.
Recently, I received a marriage proposal from a man who is also Syed, but he is only 8th-grade educated and works in France. His family lives in a village, they are a very large family, and most of them are not educated. I keep wondering whether I would be able to adjust in such an environment because our lifestyles, language, thinking, and family systems are very different. I feel confused and pressured because my family is willing to accept the proposal. Should I say yes just because he belongs to the same caste, or should I think more deeply about compatibility and my future?

@Needle_of_Arya You should - because nobody else knows what the fuck you’re talking about.

🇸🇴🚨 URGENT: SOMALIA just dropped a bomb on the arms market. $900 million. 24 JF-17 Thunder Block III fighter jets. Advanced avionics. Modern radar. Multi role strike capability. The nation that has not had a functioning air force since 1991 is now buying cutting-edge edge Chinese Pakistani technology. Not leftovers. Not castoffs. Brand new war machines. The Horn of Africa is waking up. And it is not asking Washington for permission. This is not a purchase. This is a pivot. Get this in front of as many eyes as possible. Somalia is rising. And the empire is not in the room.

Overwhelmed. Genuinely. The messages, the shares, the people reaching out from places I did not expect. Thank you.
I have not done anything special here. I just put into words what we have all felt. With the world's attention on Pakistan this week, it felt important to set the record straight. Who we are and who we are not.
What I think gets missed in conversations about Pakistan is that despite the incredible diversity, the languages, the provinces, the traditions, we have managed to forge a national identity that is distinctly and unapologetically our own. That deserves to be named and taken pride in.
I am as Pakistani as they come. I have lived and breathed everything in that piece. At the same time, I've grown up and have spent most of my life outside Pakistan, working in international media, I know how to write for those audiences. That combination is probably why the piece lands. I know the country from the inside. I know how to explain it to the outside. This piece was the bridge.
Thank you for crossing it with me.
