  • The Rapid Growth of IT in Pakistan will lead Pakistan in next 5 year on top.Technology adopt phenomena has been emerged in Pakistan market which is good sign and i hope that will create more technical jobs in the future ,we need to connect remote areas of Pakistan as well because without their contribution we don’t make progress.

    • i doubt that. the “rapid growth” will slow down and it will be “incomplete” all thanks upcoming centralized censorship of internet just like saudi arabia.

  • please note this huge fraud by lesco. I used 108 units of electricity in feb and lesco billed me around 2600 rs. My neighbours who used 138 units got around 1000 rs bill. I checked the bill in detail their is fuel adjustment charges of rs 1900. I was shocked. No other consumer in my neighbour received this fuel adjustment. Please beaware from this lesco fraud.. Please pro pakistani take notice on this and write a post on this.
