"How many nations did we destroy..."
"Stop, this is no time for this."
"But, surely this is the time for all nations to come together and to fight this deadly pandemic."
"I fully agree with you but the pandemic is putting pressure on resources of even the rich countries and need I add, no country, not even the US, has the necessary equipment to deal with the rising number of cases..."
"That's certainly true so do you reckon The Khan's call, echoed by the multilaterals that debt repayment schedules need to be revisited on an emergent basis should be entertained by the rich countries..."
"It should be, but whether it will be is another matter, as I said even the rich countries are struggling to cope with the pandemic."
"You know what irks me the most? That all other human rights issues have taken a backseat, and I am particularly referring to the Kashmir issue, the Indian Citizenship Act issue, the...."
"Agreed and once any issue takes a back seat it rarely resurfaces. But I reckon it is time for The Khan to do domestically what he has urged the world to do: think cooperation instead of refusing to interact with the opposition however corrupt he may deem them to be, let's not forget the law enforcement agencies and the courts will decide the merits of the cases..."
"The merits appear to be lacking."

"OK, but perhaps the virus has succeeded where powerful and not so powerful governments failed."
"To get the West to make a bean bag of the Chinese people instead of Muslims, I mean that is such an inappropriate comment."
"No I meant that the sugar mill owners and need I add many of them are party leaders are going to suffer a dramatic decline in cash inflows because no one is in a celebratory mood right now."
"But with the children at home maybe more sugar will be consumed."
"That I didn't think of, so The Khan needs to address the nation's children: ghabrana nahin (don't worry) boycott sugar and once this is over each child will receive a 1000 rupees spending money out of the cash transfers..."
"Don't be facetious during these extremely hard times my friend."
"Being facetious is all we have left for entertainment against being incarcerated at home."
