There has been a lot of hue and cry as to why the government did not provide enough information to local journalists on the Iran-US talks.

Well, it’s not the government’s job to help journalists. The govt was doing what it was supposed to do.

For local journalists not being able to report as desired by many, it has to do with their own capacity or lack of it.

In Pakistan, there is no concept of specialised reporting. Today, you are giving weather updates, tomorrow, you are assigned to cover the FO briefing and the next morning the Parliament session.

To report on Iran-US talks, one needs a far broader understanding of geopolitics, the intricacies within, and several other factors.

And this requires a lot of study, homework and expirence.

Why do our local journalists struggle to report Islamabad talks when little or no information is available Because they were looking at the event only through Pakistan’s lens.

Met several foreign journalists during the talks, and you know what? Most of them were Iran or Middle East experts with extensive experience in reporting.

So those media outlets don’t just deploy their primetime anchors or irrelevant people to cover every event.

Lastly, in any profession, the key is to set your own goals, work on your skills and enhance your capacity.

If journalists are relying on the government to help with their assignments, then perhaps they should consider leaving this job.

Pakistanis are the best at editing; even the review system in this video is better than the ICC’s.

چار دن پہلے دشمن کا میزائل لیفٹننٹ کرنل ظہیر عباس کے گھر گرا، اور اُن کا سات سالہ معصوم بیٹا ارتضاء شہید ہو گیا۔آج اُسی مٹی پر باپ جشنِ فتح میں مسکرا رہا ہے،فوجی جوانوں کے کندھوں پر ارتضاء کے چھوٹے بہن بھائی خوشی سے جھوم رہے ہیں،یہ ہے وہ قوم جو کبھی شکست نہیں کھا سکتی!

Claiming the moral high ground is rarely a sign of virtue. It’s often a signal of narcissism.

People who consistently believe they hold superior principles have inflated opinions of their own judgment.

Being self-righteous is a barrier to respecting and learning from others.

@nadeemhaque That depends upon your age, but the best cardio is the one that a person can perform in any stage of life, i.e.. walking /brisk walking.
Keeping this in mind, swimming tends to provide a full body exercise and a better vo2. Try to improve your cardio intensity gradually.

@abay_insaan_ban Wise thing is to increase the interest rate. Already, there is 7%+ gap from inflation. Else, it will haunt the masses severely in the longer run
