ET splendid Job; you provide opportunity to the people for expressing themselves even if they don't' know what they are talking about in their comments. They just score point points and that all.

@Justice: Don't you think charity begins at home?
and instead to this "adventure", she could have asked every PPP supporter for only Rs. 5 each and helped poor Pakistanis better.
What a pity that Pakistan's foreign-bred ultra elite can abuse even a human cause to build a deceptive persona around them. Come on, they first enjoy the so-called 'adventure sports' and then tell us that they are doing that not for fun but for the sake of humanity!
Sky Diving for HUMANITY! Jiye Bhutto ... Sky Diving KHAPPY.
Will never complain against anyone who raises money, even if I do not like their party politics and what they have done to the country.
Although the low amount of money raised says something. It probably cost more to arrange the skydiving trip then the money she has raised. Just saying.
PPP's VVIP culture never fails to impress, even in polio vaccination in the 90s.
Why doesn't she ask daddy to give some money from his billion dollar bank account
Others come for our aid, we should do as much for others. If you complain about people dying of hunger then do not ask for aid from the US, they have over 46 million people in poverty why should they help you? You have coal, salt mines, rivers, fruits and 4 seasons make the best yourself? Khud haat mein khashkool aur nakhray badshaon ki.....
"being among the first girl childs to be administered polio drops..."
Childs? really? You badly need better sub editors.
Et guys now you have made me confused here, Firstmost howcome Bilawal is addressed as Bhutto while she as Asefa Zardari. Didnt they change her name aswell to Asifa Bhutto zardari. Secondly, are you telling me she went for sky diving just cuz they contribute some of the earnings to a noble cause? Cmon guys its evident she did it for the thrill. Otherwise ahe has enough to just write off a large cheque w/o going all public about it. Oh and she ends with self praising herself, gosh what is wrong with the Bhuttoclan. They better learn a thing or two from the indian congress who are atleast strong enough to accept their mistakes.
@Justice: Yeah correct! When was the lást time shé did some thing similar for our poor people, especially during floods of 2010 & 2011 ? Our people are not human, it seems!
Brave little girl.........and a good effort for a worthy cause. Of course the amount she raised she could have got from the small change in her fathers smallest pocket.......but then that would be have been wrong on more than one count.
....while in the real Pakistan, people are dying because they dont have enough money to even eat!
Before readers start commenting that she should be working for Pakistan first and bla bla bla..all humans are equal, and no matter what race, religion or ethnicity the affected belong to, at the end of the dat they are humans who are suffering and should be helped.
