Even if the Pakistani team is proven not guilty, which seems very unlikely at the moment, we all know that they all are a bunch of shady people who play only for themselves. Their punishment should be exemplary.

In spite of losing, God knows how many matches in a row, they get half a million each from the PCB for winning the Oval test match.

Question: Aren’t these guys paid money to play and win? Some of them get up to 800,000 rupees per test match. So why pay them extra for doing what they are supposed to do? Or….were they paid their cut for losing the first two? Hmmm?

The Pakistan America Peace Through Music Project is a Musical Journey to Peace, Freedom and Understanding (A Collaboration of The Sonic Peace Makers and SHINE HUMANITY)

Background:

Mention Pakistan today and what comes to the minds of most Americans is terrorism, poverty, and hopelessness. That’s all they see in the news. But Pakistan also has one of the world’s most diverse and rich cultures, equaled only by its spectacular natural beauty as home to part of Kashmir, the Khyber Pass and high mountain peaks like K2.

Getting an Indian visa has become as tough as getting an American one, says popular singer Shafqat Amanat Ali Khan, who was on a four-city tour of the country.

But he maintains that films are the two “strong” bonds between India and Pakistan.

“Visa has become an issue in the past four to five months. It (Indian visa) is now as difficult as getting an American visa. Insha Allah things will change,” Shafqat, told in an interview after his Delhi gig, the sixth till date.

“We are hoping it is one of those good-days-bad-days thing. Sometimes we go to the embassy and ask for a day’s visa and they permit us for a month. Sometimes we have all the papers ready, but they deny us a visa even when we tell them that the person who has invited us is going to be bankrupt,” said Shafqat.

As the number of affected people reaches 40 million which makes 20 percent of the total population of Pakistan, people from around the world are generously donating towards the flood victims. Yesterday, Angelina Jolie donated 100,000 US Dollars from her personal funds to UN to help with the relief efforts and requested others to do so as a UN good will ambassador. Today, Mike-Shinoda has step forth to help towards the situation with his non profit organization “Music for Relief“.

UREED is an Arabic word which means “desire”. This project began in early 2007 when Jonathan and Eddie got together to record an album. The debut album “Aaeina” has been recorded at Tritone Studio in Islamabad produced by the band itself. The album was mixed and mastered by SAM (Akash). We have 2 videos on the edit table awaiting completion and release. Work on the second album has been started aswell

OVERVIEW
More than 15 million people are affected by Pakistan’s worst flooding in 80 years, with at least 1,600 fatalities, according to estimates from the government of Pakistan. While the severity of their needs has not yet been fully assessed, the number is greater than those who were affected by the 2005 South Asia tsunami (5 million), the 2005 South Asia earthquake (3 million), or the 2010 Haiti earthquake (3 million). The estimate of 290,000 homes destroyed or seriously damaged is almost the same as those destroyed in Haiti. Below are organizations that are working on relief and recovery in the region.
