Partly Facetious : Who is likely to buy our airports?
"Did you hear the news? Gatwick airport was sold to the French Vinci company and ..."
"Don't go there!"
"Privatisation as a means to generate some cash for our treasury..."
"Yes, but..."
"Hang on, let me complete my sentence, our treasury is empty, and don't forget the Khan administration has agreed to sell two state owned power entities and that shows that it now agrees that the sale money would be better used for plugging the deficits so why not sell the airports?"
"I am not bothered about the Khan administration's U-turns, what I am bothered about is who is likely to buy the country's airports?"

"You are translating directly into English, but in Sindhi politics, white lie means a lie that is meant to hurt daddy and..."
"Oh shush, besides someone wrote his speech for him and he didn't do a practice run; don't forget he is a Bhutto Zardari and not a Sharif and he is not scared of jail time or so stated his daddy and..."
"That brings me to the second point, going to jail when your wife is the opposition leader and you are in your 30s or 40s is not as hard as going to jail in your 60s with a handful of MNAs and..."
"Zardari sahib has been in jail for 11 years Nawaz Sharif and his brother were in jail for mere months so have not yet paid their dues and God wiling..."
"Stop you Khanzadeh!"
