51 Miyawaki urban forests to be developed in Lahore: PM Imran

[Crimson Blue]

After the success of this project in Lahore, Miyawaki urban forests are being plantted for Karachi. Interesting thing to note in this video is that Sindh Government has no role in this project ...... as was expected.

Back in Februrary 2021, another member @Bilal. has posted about a new Urban Forest being planted on Clifton shoreline. Here is a video update about this projest.

They are also planning few fresh water lakes and fruit trees to attract wild life & birds. its pretty cool.

And I almost forgot ..... Sindh Government has no role in this project which shouldn't come as a surprise.

You mean the "Miyawaki Urban Forests" named after the Japanese botanist Akira Miyawaki?

My people are forced to do on their own unlike the pampered ones.

Yet we are innovators and trend setters.

Proud to be Karachiite.

Well, since Karachi's incompetent local authorities, that are run by people from Karachi, aren't doing anything, let's moan and wail about something the Lahoris are doing for themselves by themselves. As a member has already clarified, this is a PHA Lahore endeavor.

Yes...In Pakistan, this japanese idea was first introduced in Karachi as you can see the FB group which is chasing it - is based in Karachi and live since 2015.

STRONGLY DISAGREE

Karachi was only run by Karachiites under Mustafa Kamal in Musharraf era in recent history - After that - Karachi was overtaken by PPP - not so Karachi people - quite obvious.

Guess Lahore should not have done it then. Clearly Karachi holds the rights to it.

I don't even get what you are trying to get out of this.

You mean the DG Parks & Horticulture at Karachi Metropolitan Corporation, Taha Saleem from Karachi?

Still not run by Lahoris.

I think you are thinking too much - All power to Lahoris to get rid of that smog

My point was - things happen in Karachi due to people's own initiatives and charity while Lahore always get backed by government as government is non existent in WHOLE SINDH not only in Karachi thanks to ESTABLISHMENT BIAS

-------

That dude - Taha - He may belong to Karachi but overall the the government machinery is literally alien to Karachi and her people.

You said - that are run by people from Karachi

This is what I objected to - Karachi people are NOT running Karachi - hence crimes, negligence, complete collapse of city infra - All credit to Pakistani establishment and Waderas.

Ahan, so the jibe against Lahoris was just out of habit?

A bureaucrat from Karachi, literally one of the people from Karachi, who passed his CSS exam on Urban Sindh's seat, is the in charge of your parks but it is not his fault. You are not complaining about him or to him. Instead, you are wailing on something that happened in Lahore from Lahore's funds. Clearly, his sheer incompetence, as attested by your dissatisfaction, is some other Pakistani's fault.

Whole Pakistan shouts at discrimination they face when all funds get utilized on Lahore - noises from South Punjab ???

And Karachi is NOT run by Karachi people - if it were - Karachi was miles ahead than many South Asian cities let alone Pakistani cities - Why because this is our home - and we have demonstrated how well we can take care of it if given powers

I am not much into parks and so but what I have read on FB - that dude Taha is quite appreciative of his work and of others who are involved in green stuff..

He is in touch with another Karachi based guy - Toufiq Pasha Mooraj - who appears to be expert is plantation

So he is quite onto his job

humai bhi dikha do development! yahan sindh may

The development that's happening in Lahore is with punjab's budget, go and ask your bhutto why there is no development.

Are the Urban forests being made in Karachi being done by the same guy who created the first one in Pakistan years ago?

51 Miyawaki urban forests to be developed in Lahore: PM Imran
Web Desk On Feb 12, 2021 Last updated Feb 12, 2021

LAHORE: Expressing his concerns over a high level of air pollution and smog in Lahore, Prime Minister Imran Khan on Friday said that urban forests will check air pollution and protect the environment, ARY News reported.
Addressing the inaugural ceremony of Miyawaki urban forest at Jilani Park in Lahore, PM Imran termed smog a “silent killer”, adding that it reduces 6 to 11 years of a person’s lifespan.


He urged the nation to join tree plantation drive as it is a matter of our children’s future.
The Jilani Park’s Miyawalki Forest is one of the 51 sites being developed in Lahore to revive the city’s green cover and address the issues of pollution particularly smog.

51 sites have been chosen in Lahore to implement the Miyawaki concept whereby a jungle that grew in 50 years previously will now grow in 10 or 20 years, he said, adding, “This is an excellent first step.”

Earlier on February 8, Prime Minister Imran Khan had convened on Monday a session of the Prime Minister’s Committee on Climate Change to review the latest inventory reserves of Green House Gases (GHG) in Pakistan and progress made on Ten Billion Tree Tsunami Programme.

The session had been told that shift towards climate friendly Pakistan had been made possible due to increased forestation following the Billion Tree Tsunami (BTT) project in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and the ongoing Ten Billion Tree Tsunami Programme across the country.

The most exciting news I have read on PDF in last few days. GO ahead IK bhai.

I too am making one this season. Raw material has arrived. Plants will arrive soon. My target is first week of June.
14 Tractor of bio mass has arrived. Jivamrut is ready. About 4 to 5 thousand plants are required. I have planned some Ayurvedic plants as well such as Bilva patra trees, Goose berry, Neem, Giloy, Mahogany etc.

I urge IK to plant some medicinal plants too so that Lahoris get herbal medicines as well.

 

[Mr.Cringeworth]

Talk is cheap...

We won't ask from Sindh government as we didn't vote them

We voted PTI in huge numbers so we have all rights to spit on PTI if work is not done

We will ask to the real owners - those sitting in Pindi

Asking from Sindh government can be problematic as it turns into ethnic issue.

Federal and Milatary is also taking taxes from Karachi...

They are the ones who can arm twist Sindh government

Join us in shaming establishment

Oo bhai tum bachon walli baat krte ho, do you understand how majority works, how democracy works? Jab tumhe is cheez ka hi nai pta to i feel sorry for you.
Is baat se farq nai prta k tumne kis ko vote diya hai, majority se parta hai or majority ne ppp ko diya hai is cheez ko accept krna paray ga or aqalmandi is me hai k apne logon ko shaoor dillao k wo agli baar unhe vote na karen bjaye iske k tum punjabi ya pathan ko kaho k tumhari mada karen kiu k sach ye hai k koi or kabi kissi dusre k madad krne tab tak nai aata jab tak wo apni khud madad na karen.

Who installed Sindh Government?

You're in such a state of denial against ppp that you've become delusional.

He is NOT OUR BHUTTO...We are Karachiites

Go said this TO Villagers in Sindh

Ironic how you, sitting in Karachi, wail about the money the Punjab government spends on Lahore from Punjab's budget. Even though this project is being funded by Lahore's money, as has been mentioned a fair few times already. I don't see the rest of Pakistan loosing its kameez every time Lahore is mentioned here either. Or taking pot shots at them for the "Establishment's bias". Mighty unintelligent to talk trash about Lahore when it and Punjab have literally nothing to do with who rules and what happens in Karachi. Seems more about malice against Lahore than any sorrows you might have about your own state of affairs. I believe the word in Urdu is "Bughz".

If a non-Karachiite said anything of the sort about Karachi, you'd be swinging from the trees that Karachi does not have.

And Karachi is NOT run by Karachi people - if it were - Karachi was miles ahead than many South Asian cities let alone Pakistani cities - Why because this is our home - and we have demonstrated how well we can take care of it if given powers

Sure it would. We all only have memories of a goldfish.

So he is quite onto his job

So now that it's a "Karachi wala" responsible for the incompetence, everything is hunky-dory? No wailing? No complaints? No venom to spew? Why are you still complaining about Lahore then?
