All in a day's work! - Five days or five seconds away!
Oh! Still here, thought u had gone to Australia.
No, I didn't
But why?
U were planning to first go to Perth for the cricket match.
Oh!
God is great!
Thanks to my friends who make my travelling difficult at this time, rather saved me embarrassment.
That's true!
No doubt about it. But why r you saying that. Win or lose is a part of game.
True! But only if the game is played.
What?
U mean to say our team didn't play. What else they are there for?
I think u may talk to any Pakistani there (in Perth) to get the answer.
What u want to say, please say in easy words.
I received a call from my cousin, saying that he is preferring to stay at home as the players are roaming around making the most of their tour.
Most of the tour?
What? How can they. They have lost the tour?
My dear who cares. The much fanfare ones are enjoying the tour wearing pink shirts.
Too bad!
My cousin told me that the national team even lost to their university teams.
Great!
Come on! U have to lose something to get something.
R u referring to losing precious Americans in Mosul to restore peace and democracy in Iraq?
No my dear!
The ratio of lives lost, though no official data of Iraqi civilians is available, is more than 10:1.
The lives in developed and underdeveloped countries are not that important my friend.
Why are u in such a bad mood today?
Nothing. Just read the paper after receiving my cousin call from Perth.
Come on!
U must be disturbed over some political situation.
No!
Is it not related to the maullanas proclaimed protests?
No!
Is it related to the arrest, bail and re-arrest?
No!
Come on. The Sindh High Court granted interim bail.
Is it related to the peace talks and contradictory statements from our beloved neighbour?
No!
I told u its nothing related to political situations, come it might domestic or international.
Then?
U must be worrying yourself about the WTO quota -free regime only 5 days from now?
No!
My dear, WTO quota free regime is too big a thing to worry for a person like me.
Then!
Am worried, where do we stand if we r not prepared to handle only three airlines domestically.
Meaning?
Don't u know the PIA and the Air Blue aircraft escaped disaster on Wednesday.
What?
Ya, the two passenger aircraft narrowly averted a mid- air collision some 50 km from Rahimyar khan.
Thanks God.
Ya, the PIA flight from Islamabad to Karachi and Air Blue plane coming from Karachi to Islamabad was flying at the same altitude.
How many passengers were on board?
Don't know about 'blue air' but PIA was carrying 179 passengers.
God is great!
Ya, the disaster was only five seconds away had the two planes continued to fly on the same altitude.
Then!
The timely decision taken by PIA pilot who had dipped the flight saved the disaster.
Hope the passengers remained safe by unexpected jerk caused due to sudden dip.
Ya, only a passenger and a cabin crew were slightly injured.
True!
The timely decision hurt only two whereas the delay in taking the right decision would lead to a major loss.
Hope we all learn to take timely decision to avoid unwarranted experiences might it be political or of international decisions like adoption of WTO.
