As we are enjoying the mild weather in the winters of Karachi, it gets quiet at in the night times and feels a little bit more cold than the day. You can hear sounds from far far away, hear leafs falling and being blown all around the street, enjoy the atmosphere and the wonderful sightings of Karachi.
In the meantime, you also sometimes don't feel so irritated when the lights go out for hours and hours a in a day hour after hour. But when it does come into subject in groups of friends at the dhabba (chai wala), the most common comment this season is "Garmio mein kia haal hoga, jab sardio mein yea haal hai". Yes we are all worried about what it will be like in the summers when the heat will increase and the air conditionings all over the city will be turned on. If there is shortage of electricty in the winters when the load is minimal (compared to summers) then it is surly hair-raising and sometimes heart-beat-slower to think about the situation of load shedding in summers.
From rapid advancements in technology and IT and constant improvements to the city beauty and infrastructure, we see on one hand, there are, on the other hand, increasing crime rate, job cuts, resource shortage and shrinking, sky high prices, ever-decrasing value of money and a lot more, what do we see as the future of Karachi?
We all are hoping for the best, yet expecting the worst.
