” Lucrativeness Earning Money “

Modern world has endorsed several business cultures for interplay of money. Millions and millions of dollars are earned everyday but, most of us fail to recognize the darker side of the picture i.e., the illegal trade of several illegal and prohibited things. Man is on a run continuously and has even taken lead in this regard from animals being the cruelest enemy of him. We have taken us so far away into the glow of lucrativeness that we sell ourselves neglecting the importance and rights of vitality in the form of “ human trade  popular as “ human trafficking “.

Most of those who are being exploited and traded are from third world countries and most of them are poor people. History has always been harsh to those who are not acknowledged financially for their work. Now in linguistic we name them as “proletariats “i.e., people from lower class. Being aristocratic is a blessing in today’s world for they are devoid of worries of becoming the victims of such human trade.

People are made slaves against their will though civilized world claim that slavery was abolished some 150 years back but in actual there are more slaves than there ever been. Tough it is illegal all over world but it is practiced very frequently in mafias and underground world for misuse of humans. Mostly they use them for prostitution, bonded labour, sex trafficking and forced labour. Over the last two decades this has even become worse with trading of human organs illegally for those who are enslaved are killed and their organs are collected and sold in large numbers.

This has created a lack of security among those who are more prone to be trafficked. This form of involuntary service has been commercialized so well that most of us don’t realize the sensitivity of this crime done by pimps (people involved in human trade).

After all human beings are not a property and slavery is a theft that should be abolished. This can only be done if we rise and take pragmatic steps for the security of people. We need to address this issue on large scale involving the multi-nationals. All efforts should be made to resolve the core issues like unemployment and underemployment. On international level strict rules and regulations must be applied to abandon this deleterious and devastating social crime.

Silk route between Pakistan and China closed – trade affected badly

As a result of the massive landslide along side Hunza river on 4th January, which killed 20 people in remote Himalayan region. Almost 25,000 people are affected and cut off. people took every thing they could carry including doors and windows of their homes while leaving their villages in Hunza valley due to the lake threatening to flood dozens of villages. The water from lake has already submerged parts of Gulmit which was a tourist resort on the main korakoram highway between Pakistan and China. The highway has already been closed affecting the trade between two countries very badly. According to official news almost 1,700 people has already left their homes after flood swept through Ayeenabad and Shishkat villages in the Hunza district.

The president of the Gilgit chamber of commerce, Pakistan, Javed Hussain said that they have suffered a loss of more than 500 billion rupees since january.He said that the trade convoys arriving to the border town of Sust are sent to another town, Hussaini, where they are loaded on the boats to cross the lake. Then the private loaders put thecargo on jeeps to take it to Gilgit.

Probably this loss would not be recovered because the government of Pakistan has maybe more important things to solve than to establish any alternate trade route and will be sacrificing this loss for their big gains.

The silk route has been a trade route between Pakistan and China for decades. Wondering why not such a profitable route was ever maintained or enhanced / alternated in all these decades by any of the so called rulers of Pakistan!

The Silk road is a series and network of trade and cultural transmission routes that connected East and West by linking China to the Mediterranean sea during various periods of time.
