Thank you for taking your time out to make these vlogs. I have seen all of them and I feel inspired by you. I have been hoping to relocate to Pakistan for a while now. insha'Allah by next year's end I will be in Pakistan. Don't get discouraged by the current political events. They will soon pass like they have in the past. I really enjoy all your videos. Please keep them coming.

Thank you for keeping us updated. Don’t be discouraged about some haters.. because they are going to hate. You are stating facts, and facts don’t care about someones feelings. It’s too bad if somebody is not able to handle the truth. These people are part of the problem, even though they think they are the cure.. greetings from Germany

I'm thrilled to see another one of your KZfaq videos! I've been eagerly checking for updates and I must say, your vlogs are always a source of valuable insights. I particularly appreciate the information you provide about living costs and the way you present it with those informative graphs. I was wondering if you could share an update on your experience working from Pakistan. I'm curious to know how it has impacted your career and how you've managed to maintain relationships with colleagues working abroad. Your perspective on these matters would be greatly appreciated.

I visited your channel many times to see if there's any new video, v happy to find one today, there was a time when I really get emotional after watching your move to Pakistan then I discussed through your comments section and I'm thankful you gave a good advice about financial stability , happy to know about your son's progress in urdu learning, they'll also learn the culture and moral values v well there as compare living in 🇬🇧, yahan social circle jitna merzi extend ker lo phir b lifestyle kuch istrah ka he k bacho ko thori thori dair k bad boredom hone lgta he, Pakistan me kuch aisi rehmat he اللہ ki k log khush rehte hen, no matter whatever the circumstances are, azan hoti he 5times thats the big difference from here. Ap himmat na haren انشاءاللہ sab theek ho ga, hope so people show some tolerance on both sides, instead of harming govt properties, thats really heartbreaking to see, thanks for sharing views , say my slam to nida sister

Thank you so much for your support. You are one of the earliest supporters of our channel. The insights you generally provide are also very useful like this one. I sometimes consider k the best case scenario we have is if Pakistan becomes a thriving country takay bahar rehnay ki need minimize ho jayay and one can shift at will... point is that given our links to the place we can never fully let go of this relationship....

​@@hassanrafique yes I do believe pakistan is very good country to live, four weathers, the rich culture etc, what I've observed by comparing with this country that if education available to evey single child of the country,secondly in here they give awareness about social ethics in schools, they don't just emphasis on academics but also well being of a person, here education is more practical rather then just ratta system and getting good grades, jab nations practical educate hoti hen tou wo apne assets k sath loyal hoti he, they love their county unconditional, but you live in good and civilised city and I've seen through your vlogs family is well educated and civilised, so don't worry , kuch pane k kuch sacrifice b kerna perta he, insan machine ki trah paisa kmaye but mental peace na ho, happy na ho tou kya faida itne luxuries ka, bohat se baten ap k bache environment se seekh len ge , so please don't say disappointed end of the day sab acha ho ga انشاء اللہ

Thanks for your comment. It is certainly heart warming to see your patriotism ( I feel a lot of synergy there with my own thinking when I was there). I would advise you on a couple of things. 1) If you are close to getting citizenship , then at least get to that point before the move. 2) if possible ensure that you can manage the UK business remotely ( or at least until your Business in Pakistan is up and running) Coming to a decision that you want to relocate is itself a huge thing and seems like that step is complete for your. The next steps should therefore be taken with planning. If the two aspects I mention above can be sorted then the relocation can really be stress less. Let me know if you have more questions during this journey and I will be happy to guide wherever possible Brother. Pakistan Zindabad 👍

Mr Hassan, your videos have given alot of hopes to overseas pakistani if and when they ever decide to move to Pakistan. Of course all us situation and reasoning and constraints are different to move to pakistan except some commonality to move to Pakistan. Close to parents, siblings, raising kids are etc..... There are few expats such as you ,Sohail Abdallah who has moved after 35 years living in usa and he moved to karachi and he also shares his plus and minuses moving to pakistan in his youtube videos. You guys are doing great work, keep it up. Never look for happiness in our government or politicians of Pakistan otherwise you will always be disappointed, always look for small small happiness in Pakistan and reason you moved here than you always will be happy.

They are comfortable financially, not rich or business owners but paid off homes, rental income in both $ and Rs but also have 3 daughters and I wonder some of the challenges they may face as part of this move. Please advise if there is a forum I can share details on their situation and get your feedback.

Assalam O Aleikum Dear, very calculated and informative video...i am almost ur age fellow, MASHALLAH u r well settled and have dual nationality that means naturally u have an emergency exit available.... besides this people living in Pakistan are not settled in that proportion that is in developed countries...so most of the people bcz of their specific and general circumstances wants to move abroad even near 40, what would you recommend them. Either at this age having this move is fine for permanent or temporary period or they have to look something here in Pakistan for their living... kindly do answer this...many people are facing this dilemma because going abroad is itself a huge decision but specially in ur middle ages it needs lots of calculations. thanks...

Walaikumasalam, Thank you for your appreciation. I think a temporary move to secure a backup ( say for the next 5-7 years) given the current situation would make sense. I would assume that most people would have children who have had some exposure to local culture and schooling and so can be brought on board in terms of cultural differences between east and west. Fundamental solution for all Pakistanis ( local and overseas) is that the country becomes a prosperous and law abiding one ( not sure when how that will happen to be honest), because breaking off that connection is not completely possible...actually there are two steps 1) completely breakoff all relation to Pakistan and it's culture, but then the second step is to integrate into the new culture. I find the second one is as challanging as the first one because something which is deep rooted in a person cannot be fundamentally removed ( I mean if that is possible then it is amazing to be honest)....I have some friends who moved to the west just a few years ago ( in their late 30s) and they seemed to be happy so far...

Hi Bilal If you think you can do a good degree and get a job there then I would recommend that you go and spend a few years working and gaining experience. Once you get citizenship then you can think about coming back ( if you have a need to do so). It also depends in what you will for go in Pakistan if you move to Australia. If you have an established presence and healthy income ( like from a successful business or family inheritance) in Pakistan then you may not have to go...but even if you do decide to go then ensure that the Pakistani side of affairs doesn't get negatively impacted 👍
