Pakistan’s High Commission in Malaysia has urged Pakistanis living in Malaysia to come forward and donate food items, medicines and other necessary items for people affected by the devastating floods in Sindh.
In a statement issued on Monday, Masood Khalid said a special Prime Minister’s Flood Relief Account 20-002-065872-4 with Affin Bank had been opened by the High Commission for donations in cash for the flood victims.

For the past few weeks, strange news regarding a new government has been circulating in the media and some television anchors are even trying to give a timeline for the event. Pakistan is certainly going through a tough time with a massive rehabilitation and reconstruction phase underway. Our media, instead of focusing on the flood victims, has shifted its attention to the government’s weaknesses and is continuously hinting at an ‘imminent’ change in the government. This is not how a responsible media acts. The media is one of the major stakeholders in the country and is considered an important pillar of society. In order to ensure political stability in the country, our media should focus on more important things instead of predicting a change in the government.
