    You should do a future video where you go over the local products in Pakistan that you enjoy/prefer over British ones. 😁

    I came across your vlog by chance and found your observations on life in Pakistan accurate, interesting and civil. I have lived in many countries including the UK (London) and am now in Islamabad on retirement for over twenty years. Would be interested to know your impressions of traffic, interactions with labour for repairs and jobs, civic facilities and success with officialdom. My blood pressure rises in coming to terms with the areas I have mentioned even after being back all these years. Best wishes.

      @JK-tg7dg Thank you for your comment. I would love to meet up for chai shai or coffee.
      The road rules are very different. I found myself getting into aggressive road rage (off camera) many times.
      I think Pakistan is the place to teach me patience and humbleness.

    • @MyBritishPakistaniLife
      @MyBritishPakistaniLife  Před 24 dny +1

      @sagsh what I will do is keep this list in mind when I'm out and about.
      DIY they call them 'hardware store' and you find them everywhere. They are always small, family run businesses, and not at the level of B&Q.
      Car parts will more than likely be found somewhere in Saddar, Rawalpindi.
      Chemist is 'D Watson', which is a well-known brand.
      Furniture is available everywhere. You can even make your own. The issue in the UK is that it's all generally covered. I'm leather. It's a mixture of different types of material for upholstery. Also, you can have your own custom-made furniture.
      Electricals will be the 'Electry' stores. Again, these tend to be small family run businesses.

    When Pakistan did not come into existence, then the state of Jammu and Kashmir was a country with its own assembly, Prime Minister, State Bank, Judiciary, and other intentions. When Pakistan was created, the Muslim Conference was a political party that raised the slogan of joining Pakistan. In such a situation, how can Kashmiris join Pakistan? Even 2000 MW is being generated in Arad Kashmir and Azad Kashmir needs only 4 MW, so the electricity is cheap because it is not given.
