How does the government qualify their claim of giving this city a soft image, by holding frequent seminars and exhibitions like IDEAS 2006, when it cannot prevent mugging in the security zone outside the exhibition.
As long as law and order is not restored in Karachi, no meaningful purpose will be served by such exhibitions. Mobile snatching and mugging is a serious issue, which continues to aggravate. If the provincial government lacks the political will to provide security, and a reliable system of roads, sewerage etc, all these exhibitions are a mere waste of scarce resources. The rise in Dengue Fever will scare not only foreigners, but expatriate Pakistani investors. Action and not speeches or seminars are the solution.
