“We need to put our focus on mountaineering if we want to succeed”, Says the Trendsetter Mountaineer Naila

Naila Kiani has been a role model for Pakistani women for her courageous mountain climbing record. She has been a trendsetter for females who have dreams and want to realize them. Naila has shown the world that nothing is impossible if you have the will to achieve it.

Naila summited eight peaks within a span of two years. However, she thinks that there is still a lack of awareness among people regarding mountaineering.

Naila said while addressing a press conference, “We need to be aware of the people of mountaineering as we have got a lot of talent in the country. We also need support from the private sector.”

Also known as the first Pakistani woman to climb Broad Peak, Naila also enjoys the record for summiting all five 8,000 metre peaks located in Pakistan.

Additionally, she has climbed all eight 8000 peaks globally and further plans to ascend all 14 top mountains in the world. She hails from Rawalpindi with no family background in mountaineering, yet she is enthusiastic about climbing mountains.

She said, “We need to put our focus on mountaineering if we want to succeed and improve in the sector. As compared to Nepal, we need to improve the mountaineering sector to benefit from it.”

Naila appreciated the efforts of the Alpine Club of Pakistan in supporting her mission and praised Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif for nominating her for the national civil award Sitara-e-Imtiaz to recognize her achievements.

Sugar prices to further rise in Pakistan

Despite the government’s attempts to regulate sugar prices and prevent them from becoming unaffordable for the common people, the cost of sugar has already risen significantly. It is currently being sold at Rs. 160 per kg in retail, which is a substantial increase from Rs. 98 per kg in mid-April, marking a rise of over 60 percent.

The incoming caretaker setup is now taking charge, and the government has entered a regulatory mode to address the escalating sugar prices. However, both sides are attributing different reasons for the surge in sugar prices over the past three months.

To stabilize prices, the Punjab Government has introduced the Food Stuff Order 2023, empowering the district administration to procure stock from sugar mills and supply it in the market. Those found hoarding sugar may face legal action, including imprisonment for up to three years. Despite these efforts, almost a dozen sugar mills still have around 0.2 million tons of sugar they can’t retain for more than fifteen days.

Critics argue that sugar mills have earned illegal profits of up to Rs. 25 billion since April, as sugar prices cannot be increased without government approval through the Sugar Advisory Board. Furthermore, sugar already sold is not being released from warehouses and is being traded again to drive up prices.

The Minister for National Food Security & Research raised concerns about fudged export numbers, suggesting that exports may have contributed to the price hike. However, the Pakistan Sugar Mills Association (PSMA) contends that rising production costs, reaching Rs. 130 per kg, and a 70 percent increase in markup rates are the primary reasons behind the price surge, not exports.

Market sources believe that these regulatory actions may not have a lasting impact, and any changes in retail prices will be temporary. They predict that the government, particularly during the caretaker setup, may not have the ability to exert long-term control over sugar prices. Additionally, the recent announcement of minimum support prices for sugarcane by provincial governments may further affect market pricing.

Empowering Internet Users in Pakistan: Ensuring Transparent Internet Services, Invoice and Receipt, and Tax Compliance

In today’s digital age, internet services have become an integral part of our daily lives, transforming how we connect and engage with the world. This article is being written to raise awareness among general internet users about the importance of selecting the service provider, requesting internet invoices and receipts, verifying taxes on these invoices, and making the correct payments. By adopting these practices, we protect ourselves from potential exploitation and support the government in collecting the rightful amount of taxes. Additionally, the users need to verify the legitimacy of service providers to deter illegal operators.

Understanding the Importance of Internet Invoices and Receipts:

Invoices and receipts issued by Internet service providers serve as crucial documents for consumers and the government. Users can track their transactions by requesting and maintaining these records and ensuring they are charged fairly. Moreover, these documents are valuable during the users’ annual income tax return filing and can help avoid being overcharged.

Verifying Taxes on Internet Invoices:

It is essential for internet users to verify the taxes mentioned on their invoices to ensure accuracy, as the provincial government charges 19.5% and the federal government charges 15% on internet services. Many service providers may attempt to exploit customers by generating invoices with lower values, but charging higher amounts, which gives loss not just to the individual user, but also to the government revenue due to under-invoicing. Users can safeguard themselves from such malpractices by carefully scrutinizing the tax components. Additionally, by ensuring the correct amount of taxes is paid, we contribute to the country’s exchequer.

Making the Correct Payment:

Making the right payment for internet services is about the amount and ensuring compliance with tax regulations. Users can confidently make the correct payment by understanding the tax calculation and verifying its alignment with the invoice details. Customers should promptly contact their service providers for clarification and rectification in case of any confusion or discrepancies. Always ask for the invoices and receipts from your service provider.

Checking Service Provider Legitimacy with the Regulatory Authority:

Pakistan has witnessed an increasing number of illegal internet service providers resulting in financial losses for the government. To protect ourselves and support legal operators, verifying the legitimacy of service providers on the PTA website (list of operators) is essential. By doing so, we can make informed choices and contribute to eliminating unscrupulous service providers. Pakistan Telecom Authority has conducted successful raids in different cities to eliminate illegal service providers in collaboration with Federal Investigation Agency (FIA)

— PTA (@PTAofficialpk) May 26, 2023

Concerns on Social Media and other Platforms:

On social media platforms like Facebook (for e.g, Pakistan Internet Service Providers Support, facebook Support Group, and WhatsApp groups, discussions about price variations in the name of taxes are prevalent. While some variations may be legitimate due to regional differences or specific tax policies, it is crucial to be cautious of potential scams. By promoting awareness and knowledge about tax regulations, we can empower ourselves and others to identify and report suspicious activities.

Conclusion:

As responsible internet users in Pakistan, it is our duty to be vigilant and proactive in ensuring transparent internet services and tax compliance. By requesting internet invoices and receipts, verifying taxes, and making the correct payments, we contribute to the government’s revenue collection efforts and the overall development of our nation. Additionally, by checking the legitimacy of service providers on the Pakistan Telecom Authority website, we foster a trustworthy digital environment for everyone. Let us work together to protect our interests, support legitimate operators, and uphold the integrity of our nation’s digital landscape.

A pilot flying his tourist plane faced an emergency situation when his plane’s engine broke down midair on Sunday. This forced the French pilot to land his aircraft in water, saving all passengers on board.

The aircraft Cessna 177 touched down on the waters near the Mediterranean resort of Frejus at nearly 10 am (0800 GMT).

Islamabad’s Hiking Trails Closed for Public Temporarily

In a precautionary move, the Islamabad administration has announced the temporary closure of hiking trails 3 and 5 for the public from July 30 to August 1.

The Office of District Magistrate Islamabad Capital Territory (ICT) issued a late notification on July 29, informing the public about the closure of these popular hiking trails, known for attracting both locals and tourists.

Pakistan’s number 1 squash player unpaid for half a year

Renowned Pakistani squash player, Asim Khan, has expressed his frustration regarding the non-payment of his salary for the past five months, a recurring problem that has persisted over several years. Despite proudly representing Pakistan at the international level, Asim questions how the country’s name can be elevated when its own sports stars are not being rightfully compensated.

Asim Khan, who is employed by Sui Northern Gas Pipelines Limited (SNGPL), emphasized the significance of fair remuneration and urged for timely payment of salaries before demanding medals and glory for the nation.

Pakistan’s renowned squash player demands his salary

It's been 5 months already and I didn't get my salary this is happening for a few years. How are we supposed to Roshan Pakistan’s name if we don't get what we deserve, at least pay our salary and then demand medals? @SNGPLofficial
— Muhammad Asim Khan (@asimkhansquash) July 28, 2023

Asim Khan’s tweet sheds light on a broader issue within Pakistan’s sporting community, extending beyond his personal circumstances. The delay in receiving salaries not only affects the financial well-being of athletes but also impacts their motivation and ability to focus on excelling in their respective sports.

Being a top-rated squash player who has brought laurels to Pakistan through exceptional talent and hard work, Asim Khan deserves proper payment and recognition from the relevant authorities. However, the lack of these has left him disheartened.

Currently ranked 66th in the world, Asim stands as a testament to the invaluable role of athletes in elevating Pakistan’s name on the global stage. Their dedication, commitment, and passion for their sports serve as a source of inspiration for the nation. Nevertheless, the persistent issue of unpaid salaries raises questions about the value placed on their contributions.
