The talk of Thar Coal is hot now days. There seems to be a lot of hue and cry emanating from locals of Sindh about the notice alleging the desolution of SCA (Sindh Coal Authority). I think we are better off being a nation atleast once.
This letter published in Sunday’s Dawn has very interesting and eye opening facts about the coal reserves found in Sindh, Pakistan. It’s a shame that after 60 years we are still unable to utilize these reserves. Another interesting thing that popped out from a circuilating email was that a place in Baluchistan, Pakistan called Riqo Dik (in Chaghai) has the worlds 3rd largest Gold and Copper reserves. Again a shame that we have failed to leverage those. Why do we rely on foriegn loans when we have all these great natural resources? This article also has the news that a 100,000 BBL/day oil refinery is going to be shifted from Italy to Thatta near Karachi. Now 100,000 BBL/day is a lot of oil? Why do we need to import oil? Check out this article in Dawn which says “From October 2006 till March 2008, Parco had exported 100,940 tons of petrol”. Read on the entire article to gain more excitement. There are proven oil reserves in Badin, Sindh and in Baluchistan aswell. We are the fourth largest milk producing country in the world. We have worlds best canal system. We have a huge amount of fertile land. We have all 4 seasons to enjoy. We have plains, deserts, seas, oceans, mountains, plateaus and every thing gathered in this small country of ours. Surely this is a blessing of Allah. We need to realize these blessings. We don’t need money from outside, we have well enough man power and natural resources to be a very stable country. I pray, live and work to see the hypocrites in the establishment to go to a disgraceful end.

Coming back to the original topic. We are facing Energy Crisis. What a shame? We have all the coal in the world to power up each and every house and industry in Pakistan 24/7. Here are some excerpts from the article.

Why the UN Security Councel has called an emergency meeting now?
Why did they not wake up when hundreds and thousands of people have been butchered and buried to death with no regard to women and children?, in Iraq, Afghanistan and other war frontiers created at the very own pleasure of Israeli lobbied Anglo-American war lords?

The only point I am trying to make here is that the world should give as much attention to the lives of those people who are being killed in Afghanistan, Iraq, Palistine as much given to those killed in Jeruselum bloodshed. If they actually do so, the security council sessions might need to go 24X7X365. Please have some respect for the human life!

May Allah bring Peace to World (Ameen) and may All Muslims die in the state of Iman (Ameen)

Hello every one, long time no see

Pakistan Developers’ Conference 2007 was held here at 19th and 20th June, 2007. This time INETA Pakistan sponsored 5 members per user group. I was one of them (Thanks). The first day wasn’t that good, especially, the opening ceremony and keynote. I understand the broadcasting of Opening Ceremony from Islamabad, but i dont favour broadcasting of a somewhat technical talk by Rafal from Islamabad. Anyways, day2 was great, i attended Stephen Forte’s sessions, all day long.

Let’s see, there were a number of good speakers present, but i only attended sessions from the following;

1-Stephen Forte (4 sessions)
2-Hammad Rajjoub (2 sessions)
3-Goksin Baker (1 session)

I really liked Steve’s and Hammad’s sessions.

I also met Hammad Rajjoub and Adnan Hashmi after quite some time.

Interesting thing i came to know was that Richard Campbel was unable to get the visa, so he could’t come to Pakistan.

Here are some pics, with Shoaib sheikh and Kamran Usman.

We already had been very well honoured in terms of notoriety through out the world. Yes there are Pakistanis around the world who have achieved marvellous feats. But, our government leaves no stone unturned to put those efforts down to ashes. Speaking of this topic with context to Musharraf’s regime; brings much more than just notoriety. If I were to pick a man as “The Lord of Terror” it would no doubt have been him. How many more lives will be lost to satisfy this ego-maniac of his thirst of power. No good words for him and the same goes to his bitches (you know which bradraan i am talking about :-))

What we had in 1947 was a ray of hope for every one…

Package Details:

When you go to buy your connection make sure they have proper coverage in you area.

The package also includes telephone service. Again you can make unlimited national and international calls for free till 31st Jan ‘08. I can’t say about the quality of telephone service, because mine in not activated yet. You can plug in the regular telephone into the CPE (Customer Premises Equipment) and you are done. Telephone number alloted will be a PTCL number, starting with 8025 (as for now). As for the rates that will apply after Jan 31st, 2008 here comes a catch. The bundle offer actually signs you up for “EverGreen Unlimited” fixed line telephone package. This package has a line rent of Rs. 270/- per month and is included in your 1350/- permonth payment. So, if you are not making enough calls then you are sending Rs. 270/- to the trash.

You will get a monthly telephone bill at your doorstep that would be excluding the line rent.

The Technology:

From the backbone to the Access Points mounted on Warid’s Towers to the CPE’s (Customer Premises Equipment), every thing is a part of MOTOwi4 WiMax suite of solutions for WiMax implementation. Its based on 802.16e (a standard for WirelessMANs). The CPE operates at 3.5 Ghz.

I hope that this brief post will help any one interested to make a decision, as for me I am enjoying fast internet and hope to get the telephone working soon.
