Countless people were involved in this international collaboration, and we still have much to do in #Pakistan. Many provided support in tangible ways, while others quietly supported behind the scenes. All are remembered in my prayers.
Pakistan is always an #adventure: akin to riding a roller coaster at an amusement park- there are ups and downs. One knows going in to anticipate the unexpected.
There are many who view Pakistan through a negative lens- without ever having visited the country. Why should I follow suit, and replicate what so many have done before? This is not to say we ignore concerns, and this is not to say Pakistan is perfect. No country is perfect. #America is not perfect.
On the people-to-people level, I believe if we want change, we must model behaviours conducive to an environment of change. Most Pakistanis in the rural areas have never been to America and rarely get a chance to meet Americans, to see how #generous and #friendly most Americans really are; all they 'know' is what is shown on the news. How unfortunate would it be to spend your life distrusting or hating another #culture without ever having known how #hospitable the vast majority of the people really are.
In this adventure documentary reality series, we will avoid politics and bureaucracy as much as possible. We will focus on the 95% of Pakistan that is rarely seen. We intend to show the rural life and the modern technologies; the tonga (donkey) carts and sports car races; the mud huts, #archaeological sites and the brand new malls/skyscrapers; the #ICT and #telemedicine technologies used for education and training; all the while taking a foodie/cultural tour through the country. I love my Doodh Patti!
The #Diaspora will play a critical role in this journey as well: from Los Angeles to NYC and beyond, we will include conversations from Pakistani's all over the world, sharing their involvement in the development of their home country.
Presenting the final cut for the preview: #EmergingFaceOfPakistan
