Screaming Child Labour in Islamabad

I met this kid selling shopping bags at Sunday market Islamabad, located at heart of city. Market attracts millions belonging to different classes of people ; business men ; Government officials ; journalists and many more.

Visiting these markets tells a lot about performance of relavent organizations working to reduce child labour and accumulating donations in the name of child labour.

I wonder what will be the situation in other remote parts of Pakistan !

PTCL screwing rest of life out of me and my viewers !

In various times of day PTCL broadband connection cannot open websites. Such as mine
www.awaisyaqub.com

alternate link
www.awais.smugmug.com

It is reported there are issues with PTCL DNS name servers. When you change DNS name servers to one provided at opendns websites are accessible !that shows there is problem at ptcl which they don’t want to fix. And they keep telling same old sick argument “Sir check your wire”

PEOPLE use something else if you want clean reach to websites !

Since Pakistan army has started major offensive against terrorists in Swat valley, millions of people including women and children have moved to Boneer, Mardan and other parts of Pakitan as refugees. Due to massive movement it has become challenge for authorities to manage this people and provide them with basic necessity.

I encourage readers kindly donate for these people who have lost their smiles in the sea of uncertainty and agony.
