Why isnt Pakistan's weekly holiday, friday?

That is the same bullshit argument NS used at that time to please his masters and lords. But this crap is totally unacceptable since UAE (Dubai) has much more international trade than Pakistan and their weekend is Friday-Saturday. This was just the crappiest reason I ever heard. Instead of following Islam, they follow their masters and lords in west.

No this isn't bullshit.

From my experience in a couple of Gulf countries, the local businesses and even those of multi nationals do take a big hit due to the off sync holidays.

It takes 3 days to get a reply from a mail you sent on Thursday, along with many other repercussions.

Airlines order parts or items from OEM's and they also take a one day delay due to the off sync holidays...kindly check up on your facts before bullshitting everything.

Agr Friday ki holiday ho bhi gayi to phir kia hoga?
 
Almost the countries we trading are offs on Sat and Sunday including banks etc, if we have Friday off it's mean we cut off from trade in a week three time and we know how our crimple economy already moving, btw there is half day off on Fridays isn't?

Trading? you mean importing right?
than being a customer, we should dictate when should our suppliers take holiday!

Pakistan used to have Friday as free day and no harm in economy if it switches to Friday....
Friday in Arabia translate to ''Jama'' means 'get-together' which is mandatory for Muslims... if its not a free day, than people have to take free time off from work, in order to offer 'Juma' prayer.

what about MUSHI introducing DAY LIGHT SAVING TIMES during his era.

Pakistan tries everything in the name of business but exports hardly rise:lol:

Day light saving does not help increase exports, but it helps in saving energy.
Considering the energy shortage, Pakistan should start its day 6 in summer and 7 in winter. 8 in evening shops should close and 10 all restaurants should close.

All it takes is an executive order to change the holiday to Friday. It can be done easily again if the nation wants it fervently enough.

We have no system in place to know, what nation wants.

Okay we will copy Dubai and have holiday on Friday and have half naked women on the beaches ..

So we will copy Dubai and go have holiday on Friday, half naked women on the beaches and open bars selling drink. Now you happy? We are copying Dubai.


As far Friday holiday is concerned, its also Friday and Thursday off in Iran.

As far Dubai life is concerned, it allows its million of foreigners to feel like home and have its civil liberties, as long activities does not over step states law and other's civil rights.

Doesn't make any difference to your faith if Friday is not off.

yes easy way out rather than try to increase power generation​
 
This thread is a typical example of kids, leftist liberals , the odd half baked irani lover (self confessed), "all knowing TTA's" , all running bloody clueless.

And no one mentioned why Allah Almighty revealed a Surah after a day of the week. Surah No.62, Surah Juma.

Have you read the second half of sura Juma?
Now where does it say you should take a day off on Friday. It Just says leave everything and go for prayers when its time
 
Pakistan's weekly holiday was Friday, what happened? Even though christian population is around 3-4%; why is our weekly holiday Sunday(and in some areas; saturday). Most Muslims countries have Friday as their weekly holiday and as an Islamic Republic, our weekly holiday should be Friday.
And why should Friday be the holiday???
 
We have no system in place to know, what nation wants.

Pakistani politicians and dictators alike always know when to pander to the masses by populist steps like these to bolster their religious credentials. The next time when it happens it will be no different.
 
Why we need all day for just praying? It takes barely 1 hour, for khutbah and jamaat and 1 hour to recite surah kahf, even if ur speed is slow.. What we gonna do the rest of the day..

You got my vote. :tup:
 
Don't be stupid yourself, stupid.

Where did I say that friday is off ?

I said I'm against weekly holidays. I'm against short working hours. I'm against the ~200 day working year. If Pakistan wants to develop it has to work 365 days a year nonstop. Just take a look at the stupidly short banking hours. Firstly only 4 full working days, then one half day and then two off days. On full working days banking hours only from 9-5. Calculate the total number of banking hours per week in pakistan compared to foreign countries many of which have a full working week, each day almost 12 hrs. Remember every day lost is money lost. Every hour lost is money lost. And there's no way to get time back once wasted waiting for that cheque to clear or for banks to open to cash that cheque.
Are you owner of Sethia Company by any Chance who went to China Impressed by the way they work and try that on Pakistan like Pakistanis would match such Efficiency without providing suitable compensation for all extra Hours put on the Work. Do you know in Manufacturing sector mostly there is only one Holiday in a Week which is Sunday as they have to manage the Targets of Productions despite of insufficient Facilities Provided. The Productivity are always Lower in such Companies despite of only one Holiday in a week because Seths dont Invest in Latest technology rather prefer to run old Machines passed there Age.

Bottom Line is that if we want to have a Productivity then we also require Adequate Technology as well in order to keep our Efficiency Higher but that would only going to happened when our Business Class start considering Latest Technology otherwise 24/7 wont going to be enough to fulfill the demand which they Promised their Clients.

Private sector is free to do what ever it wants. It will always take the most effective option according to the situation. Pakistan is overpopulated and labor as a result is cheap. So they buy lots of labor instead of investing in machines (which require electricity which we don't have).

As far as holidays in manufacturing are concerned, they vary from employer to employer. Some small/medium scale companies may not even give a sunday holiday to meet production targets.

My problem is with the government and government employees. You can go to any government department office and see how hard they work. This is my money and your money that pays their salaries. On top of that government increasing their salaries every year 10% while gdp per capita is only up by maybe 2-3%.
