Breaking: Dhaka court sentences populistic ex- PM Hasina to death.

[Danish Zaidi @syedmdz]

Lahore, Karachi, Islamabad aren't just markets. They're launchpads.
This Chromebook deal proves Pakistan isn't waiting to be discovered. It's already building! The momentum is real.
Cheers to the Ministry of IT and Telecommunication Pakistan! 👏 #MadeInPakistan #DigitalPakistan

[Danish Zaidi @syedmdz]

Google didn't pick Pakistan by accident. They picked momentum disguised as a country! 🇵🇰

Google officially launched Pakistan's first Chromebook assembly line. It marks the beginning of a major shift: from importing technology to actually building it here. #PakistanTech #Google

[Danish Zaidi @syedmdz]

The core strength remains the same: Pakistan is a remote-talent hub made of a tech-hungry, globally minded population.
* 64% of the population is under 30.
* Strong English-speaking base.
Reasons the world is finally catching on, and why #Google wants to plant roots here. 🌱

[Danish Zaidi @syedmdz]

Excellent choice. @mosharrafzaidi represents Pakistan with unmatched clarity, confidence, and authority on the global stage.

#AbusiveContent #Islamabad: 1/11/25
A car driver (Civic LOY-672) who was stopped by #ITP for creating nuisance in the area of I-8 Markaz fought with the officer. As per eyewitnesses he seemed intoxicated. @HamzahHumayun @ICT_Police please look into this. #ChampAlertsOnTheGo #CAOTG

[Danish Zaidi @syedmdz]

@syedamaheenkam Do you mean post harassment allegations?

[Danish Zaidi @syedmdz]

50% tarrif!

[Dr. S. Jaishankar @DrSJaishankar]

Glad to meet @SecRubio this morning in Kuala Lumpur.

Forgot @MominISheikh @dawarhbutt and @motasim though. =p

I trained an AI model on people's views. And AI learnt since 2000 and created a political compass.

X-axis : economic left (state) vs. Right (market)

Y-axis: top (authoritarian) vs. Bottom (Libertarian)

It is interesting. 90s left isn't left today.

[Danish Zaidi @syedmdz]

Another mistake rectified. Took 5 years.

As a non-partisan guy, I have always maintained PTI and did some major blunders during their tenure. They should realize their mistakes and learn from it.

[Danish Zaidi @syedmdz]

Separation of power is an abstract idea. Lines blur in practice, but when competent people lead institutions, natural checks and balances align the system toward positive outcomes. Democracy isn’t about majoritarianism; it’s about capable governance, justice and progress.

[Danish Zaidi @syedmdz]

Better than papon! We have raw talent.

[Abdullah Sultan @abdullahsultan]

Leadership isn't about popularity, it's about doing what's right for the nation, even when it's hard. Banning extremist entities costs political capital, but governing means choosing the greater good. It takes courage to stand against extremism, knowing the risks. The government is acting,it's our duty to stand with them. #BanTLP

President Trump says after the Pakistani Prime Minister’s remarks: “Wow I didn’t expect that. Let’s go home. There’s nothing more I have to say, Goodbye everybody. That was really beautiful. And beautifully delivered. Wow. Thank You very much.”

@occhiolist__ This one should have touched the middle of Pine Avenue, I agree to offload traffic.

[Danish Zaidi @syedmdz]

This is the most banal route planned for the new expressway in lahore from Arfa to Pine Avenue. The tilt in the road seems to be joining the same chowk where chaos unfolds.

This should have been planned better for the south of lahore.

[Danish Zaidi @syedmdz]

New CM of KP in his inaugural address

"Mein is dafa Ishq e imran mein mara jaon ga."

This is the CM of a province with the highest radicalization, unenployment, terrorism, hopelessness, & detoriated infra.

Agitation is part of IK's DNA. No productive decisions are expected.

[Danish Zaidi @syedmdz]

@occhiolist__ The idea should have been to divert traffic, not to bring it to the city center.

It was said it would be for south of lahore which would make sense since no direct route — it is for city center. Perhaps since it is easier to follow the drain (satukatla drain) route.

[Danish Zaidi @syedmdz]

Decisive action by Pakistan Army against Afghan-based terrorist groups. Reports confirm 21 enemy posts captured. A long-overdue response after 2,500 Pakistani lives lost in recent years.

National security demands resolve, not restraints. PTI remained a proponent of negotiations.
