The Sunday Blog # 17

Today is the 31st of July 2016 the 26th of Shawwal 1437 till sunset.This Week that is the week that has passed I did not have any net or cable trouble. So i believe that it was related to the on-going cricket series in England. Thus i am expecting the shutdown early next month. Anyways Today I begin my SundayBlog # 17 With this one of my very favourite verse of Poetry . 

یہاں کوتاہی ذوق عمل ہے خود گرفتاری 

  جہاں بازو سمٹتے ہیں وہیں صیاد ہوتا ہے

ASGHAR GONDVI 1884-1936 

While i was doing the previous Sunday blog That is the The Sunday Blog # 16 last Sunday The Government of Sindh I mean the Chief Minister and His Cabinet was called to Dubai with some of the other PPP party seniors from all over the world to a meeting where many important decisions were to be taken. Unfortunately it was headed by a very inexperienced leader. Yes you are right i am taking about Mr Bilawal. together with his father and other family members and friends the Young Mr Zardari made one the worst political mistakes of his life long political career.  Instead of trying to become the Bhutto of Pakistan he became the Zia of PPP. By Firing an elected Chief Minister and the most senior member of his grand fathers Time Just because there were heaps of garbage everywhere in Karachi and the Media and especially Social Media was putting the blame on the CM and comparing his bad governance with the CM's of other provinces especially the Punjab and KPK. I personally believe that it would have been much better if the leadership had strengthened him with their full support and concentrated on the problems instead of the people. But Lack of experience and understanding of the politics made him do it.  This is not it the matter of Rangers powers is also a very serious issue prolonging and unnecessary delaying gives an impression that zardari's are against the Army. And believe you me no Pakistani , Sindhi or Urdu speaking would support a zardari or even Bhutto Against the Army when they are winning the Zarb-e-Azb . Clear decisions and firm decisions are the need of the hour. It is a War and the nation is looking for a hero not some corrupt leaders trying to sneak-in their wards for free or half the ticket.     

 

Okay coming back to Pakistan via Islamabad. Two very famous and popular tv anchors and journalists have started using head covering . While some morning shows are still using the glass tables or tea tables especially the ones from islamabad. Anyways who cares because i rarely watch the morning shows these days and that too for the news tickers about rain in karachi. Btw does anybody know that Ary Family Channel is still doing EIDi show with Fiza ali who is already two or maybe more feets higher than juggan kazim . its been four hours since their last show and facebook official page have not yet updated the Shrug . I usually watch that show while trying to relax before the Sunday Blog.  So coming back to the female tv anchors turning . I hate journalists regardless its in my blood so i cannot love or respect them ever But I have an extreme Admiration for these two very shrewd and the one before them . Infact when she turned i thought it was a temporary phase of seduction or rejection But to my greatest surprise she even survived the sinking of BOL ship. Asma Shirazihttps://pbs.twimg.com/profile_banners/302230454/1469811457/1500x500The first two are the crowd pullers no doubt but there third one is the luckiest of the crowd and the deadliest too . 

 

 

I was at the mosque for taravee prayer and had no idea what had happened or was suppose to have happened. Anyways So who would be the next to turn ? Paras , Maria , or G for Gharida . only time will tell .

Our very dear Khan saab PTi also does that conversion thing with the british females . And the rumour is that he is on the lookout for his 3rd or 4th example these days . I am sure that few cricket fans know that Khan saab pti use to advocate for a Neutral Umpire . and now he is advocating for a neutral election commission .

--Well Actually i am surprised that Why United Nation or the Common Wealth never thought of it . It was their duty to have an unbiased and neutral international election commission and not just election monitoring bodies or NGOs who have no power or authority to enforce free and fair elections in Pakistan and around the World . Probably because the French like to do the things very differently . And Russia cannot agree with china or the west . whatever.
Btw , In the islamic republic of Pakistan we are just one step behind from a true islamic democracy . We Have Leaders here who lead the Parties , tribes , clans , faiths and communities. But we donot have a leader to lead these leaders . And we are also not sure How that leader should be chosen.

 Harry Potter and the Cursed Child (Play)

Characters
Original language English
Series Harry Potter
Subject Harry Potter and his son Albus Severus Potter
Genre
Setting Wizarding world







So with the novelization of the play script the kids will have a new Harry potter series book okay. 
Talking of Cursed Child , Karachi i believe always have and always will , not the best place in the world to raise kids especially the girls . That is the only reason i always support the press- gangs of the foreign missions . And Now this Cpec (man) project will open the whole of Pakistan to the international espionage . So whatever privacy and freedoms we had will be compromised very soon . During the hearing of the case pertaining to Karachi’s law and order under a suo moto notice, he announced to stay out of the larger bench after extensive criticism on him and his family on the social media. “It is not appropriate to stay on the bench further as my family and I have been a target of criticism on social media,” said Justice Jamali in his remarks.

Now this very sad because this case was going very smooth and answering many difficult questions regarding the law & Order or the lack of here in Karachi. Obviously Karachi is moving very fast towards an emergency rule from islamabad or chaklala or whoever her majesty's gov hand picks with the advise of  the global police of the new world order.


 I know i am very frugal but when you have no water at all for wazoo for Zuhar Namaz and the country is drowning in water you feel there is something wrong. This is not just it they have also announced  the price increase of petrol this week when its going down in the world markets .  the white gram is Rs 220 per kg . Anyways , i somehow managed right now but this must be the record smallest quantity of water used ever for a zuhr prayer. Now for Asr , maghrib and Isha, i have two options use the bottled water , or go to the mosque . Now lets see what does the devil wants ...Hmmm . have you heard "اگر کوئی آپ سے شدت سے نفرت کرے  تو شیطان آپ کو اس سے ملانے کی سازش میں لگ جاتی ہے" If someone hates you intensely The devil starts planning to make you meet . (copy right waived )

Doesn't this feel like Bhai log at the Qandeel Baloch Chehlum
Anyways , The Expo centre karachi has been used for all sorts of programs and events . and believe it or not but i have not attended a single event yet ...
Few years ago I used to get up on sunday morning and take a bus ( coach ) ride to the sea view . After the privatization of  Public Beach  they discontinued the coach and mini buses on the seaview  road . Clearly making it off limits for the masses. So Unless you are going there to spend Thousands at the horrible unhygienic eateries or the Hyper Store and mall you are not welcome even the nearby residents are sometimes not allowed to swim or walk on the beach . Desperate people have to go outside karachi to the beaches in Baluchistan causing severe traffic congestion near maripur .  
--So What I am trying to say here is that the Centuries old cliche' of the people popularly known as "Karachi Waley " a tease for the Lahore Lahore Hai types , KARACHI MEIN SAMANDAR HAI " is no longer true . Now Karachi is a super giant  perhaps the biggest in the World "Police Academy" for Rangers only .   No idea when i will get my standered issue M9 . Just Kidding .




--Breaking News:  Media socialmedia and opposition in karachi comes alive on the news that the then CM of Sindh Murad Ali Shah Saab  has been called to dubai and has already left .


 This short serial on PTV my all time favourite with mostly Sindhi characters tells a lot about the present day rural sindh and why it can be ruled from Dubai.

Okay a short power Shut down and moments later a chaappa by my very dear sister and her family . Goodh Goodh . So this guarantees good food . but all i need at the moment is water. Neighbours are also motivated . Kids are planning to go to some restaurant looking at me .As usual i  was very quick to respond in negative as i have to finish this Sunday Blog as soon as possible before something goes wrong .

27th Shawwal 1437 Still Sunday after Maghrib . 

 

--Okay so before Chaapaa i was in namazable clean clothes now i am looking okay but not very relaxed and sweating too . Oh ThankGod everybody left for the restaurant so now i can relax .

Okay During Maghrib prayer a little while ago i realised that mr Bilawal was just getting started when he too had to leave for dubai

Okay no More lets move on ...


http://customnews.pk/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/IMG-20160730-WA0030.jpgDar resolves property valuation issues successfullyhttp://customnews.pk/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/IMG-20160730-WA0031.jpg

ISLAMABAD: On the issue of valuation of property and related tax matters, the Federal Minister for Finance held successful talks with the property evaluators from all over the country at the Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) on late Saturday evening.
It has been agreed for holding valuation in major cities, while valuation tables will be notified by FBR instead of valuation by State Bank of Pakistan’s approved valuers. However, till such time and for those areas for which no valuation tables are notified, DC rate will be applied.
Holding period for capital gain tax (CGT) has been reduced from 5 to 3 years under which no CGT will be charged on property held for more than 3 years.
According to the tax rates for properties acquired on or after July 1, 2016, CGT will be charged at 10 percent if holding period is up to 1 year. If holding period is between 1 and 2 years, CGT will be 7.5 percent. If holding period is between 2 and 3 years, the FBR will collect CGT at the rate of 5 percent, while tax exemption will be given if holding period is more than 3 years.
And for properties acquired before July 1, 2016, the CGT will be charged at five percent, if holding period is less than three years. If holding period is more than 3 years, tax exemption will be given.
Valuation will apply on (i) CGT (ii) withholding taxes (iii) for the purposes of sec 111. Basic threshold of Rs 3 million for application of withholding tax on purchase of immovable property enhanced to Rs 4 million
Appropriate legislation will be done to give effect to the proposed changes as agreed with all stakeholders.

Okay All I can see here is the three letters F B R , no further comment at this moment .

So there are two parts of me when i am on computer . One is socialmedia savvy click on I agree and never look back And the other one is a law student who knows that those who love me will die trying to make me rich just like my dearly departed Parents .

May the dear merciful Lord Almighty Allah have mercy on my Both Parents Ammi & Papa and since its been Eight long years since Papa Died and two longer years since Ammi passed away ...So . Amen !
