Ehtisham Haider | 1 year ago | Reply They are just focused on show off projects and cleanliness drive at main roads but look at the piles of garbage in city destroyed roads spilling out drainageno tap water at the same time no parks and walking dracks in localities. Living in karachi is like living in an interior sindh village even worst.

Ali Raza | 1 year ago | Reply They are going to screw up the project - I do not mean to be a pessimist but the Sindh Government is incompetent to manage just anything - Bathroom doors will be gone - Restaurants will be closed and dirt - OMG

Rename seaview to Jalabad | 1 year ago | Reply Sindh Govt. should rename Sea View to Jalabad or Kandhar because of invasive presence of Afghanis who pose threat to local population. Its becoming impossible for families to visit.
