The novel coronavirus which began from China's Wuhan city has now become a pandemic all over the world. Over 20,000 people have lost their lives and over 500,000 have been diagnosed with the disease. Now that everyone has been locked down inside. In the wake of the same, some caught hold of South Korean drama from 2018 titled 'My Secret, Terrius,' . What caught attention was the fact that one of episodes of the show has an uncanny resemblance to today's situation of the outbreak.  The clip that has gone viral shows a man telling his partner why one should stay at home and avoid stepping out later which the scene gets shifted to a hospital where a doctor explains about the mutant coronavirus outbreak which attacks the respiratory organ.

Story of Agha Hasan Abedi & BCCI

Agha Hasan Abedi: the man who dared to dream BIG! Agha Hasan Abedi was one of the finest minds this country has ever produced. He was an exemplary patriot and a legendary banker. In the mess that exists today, the youth of Pakistan desperately needs inspiring personalities to look up to. I cannot think of a better person to quote. He proved that politics is not the only form of service to the nation. He suffered through various scandals towards the end of his life, but no one can deny his contributions towards building a stronger Pakistan. It is a shame we let our youth forget a man like Agha Hasan Abedi.   Thousands graduate every year from FAST National University and Ghulam Ishaq Khan Institute. Only a handful of those proud degree holders know who laid the foundations of these prestigious institutes. It was one man’s vision that delivered tremendously to Pakistan’s development. *A true patriot: Agha started his banking career at Habib Bank in the late 19...

Raise your voice, don't let it be another Palestine. An important Message for #Pakistanis All People of Pakistan should stand up for passing a law that "Foreigners Cannot Buy Land in Pakistan and Start Business without Local Pakistani Sponsorship".

Pass this to as many people you can to make this voice heard to make the required Laws... Also they cannot start their business in Pakistan without keeping 55% share holder to LOCAL Pakistani along with yearly money just like gulf states, UAE, KSA etc and China mainland itself is doing for the betterment of their state and citizens.
