So, according to you, adopting Western culture is what makes ours "great"? The British may have left, but they clearly left behind an inferiority complex that makes our people think mimicking Western trends is the only definition of progress.

Habibi, when did I say those things? This might be your interpretation of your own thoughts, not my words. I usually post these kinds of random historical videos because I like them and my followers do too (mostly). But if you don't, you are welcome to scroll to the next post.

@mkhan_afnan Why do you like them?

@mkhan_afnan Why you don't?

@mkhan_afnan You like it because I don’t like it?

@mkhan_afnan Because, I can learn so many good things from em.. why dont you like historical videos?

اکرم بھائی، اس میں سے آپ کی دادی کون سی ہیں؟

Wow! Have some respect for the great man in the dp or atleast change it..🤮

Don't post such things. There are people to hunt you down for supporting Western culture and their ideology.

Faiz, I ain't promoting anything.. Just posted whats already available on the internet.. they can make their own interpretation of it for all I care.. but it is what is..

We need reform asap so I can flex my edtwt build at the beach @GovtofPakistan

Ye wapas aana chahiye pakistan me

No way this can't be karachi 🤯

It is, 100%

Astonishing that karachi was like this back then.

The definition of slavery…white poeple enjoy, brown people provide and help.

Once again, extremist interpretations of Islam and its clerics have negatively impacted Pakistan. This is why India, which was behind Pakistan after independence, is now significantly more advanced than Pakistan across all socioeconomic indicators.

Namaste Good Sir, A polite enquiry, if I may ask. Why do you Indians have to bring India into everything and suddenly make it about India, when it was not about India in the first place?

Because India & Pak started their independent journeys at same time, from same subcontinent & with similar colonial legacies. Comparing their trajectories is therefore entirely relevant. You can disagree with my explanation for divergence,but not with the relevance of comparison.

Don't you think? There’s a fine line between healthy competition and toxic comparison. Constantly benchmarking two countries against each other doesn’t inspire growth, it just keeps people stuck in an us vs them loop that fuels hatred instead of constructive progress.

Comparison isn’t inherently toxic. Countries routinely benchmark themselves against peers to understand what worked and what didn’t. Hatred comes from dehumanising people—not from examining why outcomes diverged.

I found out here that general Zia UL Haq did a fantastic job. May Allah bless him.

Damn! Have never seen this one side

Karachi, Peshawar, Lahore, and Kabul were once favorite destinations for European and American hippies. Back then, alcohol was legal, and clubs and bars were very much part of the urban culture. In 1977, Bhutto banned both alcohol and bars, and the rest is history.

Alhamdulillah it's not like this anymore then.

Pakistan could’ve been Dubai,Morocco,Turkey, with tourists flocking to our beaches, instead we got Zia. He weaponised religion,promoted hate,division & extremism, now here we are. Sadly we have had no brave Ataturk leader who could separate religion from State & save the country.

اس میں شک نہیں کہ پاکستان کو جرنیلوں نے آگ میں جھونک دیا مگر بنڈ دیکھانا ماڈرن ہونا نہیں ہوتا ۔۔ ماڈرن ملک وہ ہوتا ہے جدھر انصاف کا بول بالا ہو کیونکہ وہاں سب غھیک ہوجاتا ہے وقت کے ساتھ ۔۔

@hasankhyber Pakistan is an Islamic republic. Vast Majority won’t approve of this even the liberals, and rightly so. If you are ao keen to see semi naked women, then go to any western country you pervert

seriously?

Karachi 2026

The societies keep moving forward but Pakistan, India and Afghanistan keep going back. The video is authentic footage of Karachi from the early 1960s reflect the cultural behaviours of the local people. It comes from the 1960 Pan Am promotional travelogue New Horizons: Pakistan. The beach, camel-riding, and sailing scenes match that film exactly, including the narration lines that appear as on-screen text in the clip (“Most visitors of the fragile sex…”, “try everything once”, “It’ll be a sore subject”). The year given in the post (1963) is slightly off—the film itself is dated 1960—but the location and era are correct. The final dam shot is from elsewhere in Pakistan (likely Warsak Dam, completed around the same time) and was simply appended to the beach footage.

کمنٹس میں تمام لونڈے باز مولویوں کو اگ لگ گئ ہے...

@shamazifer اوہ ہو اتنا ظلم اگر یہ بیچ اب بھی ایسا رونق زدہ رہتا تو ہمارے لوگ کبھی بھی یورپ اور امریکا پر تھوکتے بھی نہی اور نہ ہے برین ڈرین ہوتا نہ کچھ اور ڈرین ہوتا

It was one Urdu speakers were majority of Karachi

Today, Karachi’s sea has become a vast open dump for raw sewage. Nearly 20 million people feed it every single day. The show case of this marvel is the inlet of DoDarya near DHA (Defense Housing Affluence), which is built and owned by Pakistan Army.

The psychological programming never works with Pakistan. It's the same for high class nothing different. It's just the product of violence has spread and become out of control for everyone. And the guys you are talking about are the only allies working closely with the west

ہم نے یہ دور دیکھا ہے 1985 میں

God must have cursed Karachi there is no other explanation

Are they part of hippie trail or Just Karachi visitors ?

No confirm Info but most probably hippie trail, back then Karachi was one of the popular destination for em.
