Traffic in Karachi is now beyond control. Due to the reckless driving thousands of lives are lost every year. The supply of electric power is inadequate and far from well, low voltage damages the costly electric appliances.

Essay on Cell Phone Effects

Mobile phones which are also known as cell phones are cordless telephones linked to a digital cellular radio network. Mobile phones can connect to the Internet via a data card which converts computer data into a form that can be passed over the network and vice versa.

Mobile phones have revolutionized the Societies of the world. Every single person is now taking interest in keeping a mobile phone. Mobile phones prove a good invention of science because they can receive and send signals to communicate. The hand sets are so small that they can be easily kept in pocket. Everyone who has a mobile phone set and connection can be detected easily and his relatives and friends and other persons who want to talk to him on important matter can easily call him on his personal mobile phone. Thus mobile phones make the world more closely.


Every technology has its pleasant effects as well as bad effects, similarly where mobile phones are the source of many advantages, they also provide a trend of fashion. People want to keep the mobile phone of latest technology, they spend a lot of money on buying mobile phone without considering on their budget of income and expenditure.

The rate of crimes has also been increased due to the increasing use of mobile phones. Hence we can say mobile phone is necessity, if it is used in constructive process but if it is used only as fashion, it becomes a great source of the wastage of our precious time.

Essay on Rapidly Increasing Population

The growth in population has been caused not by sudden increase in fertility. This has been caused due to advance in medical and ancillary science and the consequent decrease in the death rate. The other causes for the growth of population in Pakistan are poverty, lack of education, early marriages, particularly among the rural population and general attitude of the people towards family. Children are considered gift and blessing of God. Practical application of family planning methods is not so popular among the people.

The government has not been able to prevent the growth rate in spite of family planning program due to lack of practical use of birth control methods. The government has admitted its failure to limit the population to the proposed target. Rapid population growth is also tending to overuse of the countries natural resources, particularly in rural areas where majority of the people depending on agriculture for their livelihood. With rapidly increasing population, agricultural holdings are becoming smaller and unproductive.

With rapidly growing population, it is becoming difficult to manage adjustments relating to economic and social changes. Urbanization trend is creating such problems as housing, power, water and transport problem. Rapidly increasing population to an increased demand for food products, clothes, houses etc. is also plunging the economy into large scale of unemployment and under employment. With increasing the population, proportion of worker to total population is also rising. Rapidly growing population is also leading to environmental damage. Scarcity of land is pushing a large number of people to ecologically sensitive areas such as hill sides and tropical forests.

Essay on An Interesting Cricket Match

Cricket is an interesting and exciting game. It gives pleasure to both players and viewers. Once I had a chance to sc an interesting and exciting cricket match. The match was played between Pakistan and West Indies at Karachi Stadium. The match was very exciting ad there was huge gathering at Karachi Stadium. The players of Pakistani cricket team and West Indian cricket team were in high spirit of nationalism and self power of playing. It was a fine day, the captains of both team tossed for batting first. Fortunately the Pakistani team won the toss and decided to bat first and the players of West Indian team took field.

The two batsman who went in first from Pakistani team were quite good players. One was famous for his good hitting while the other was very careful. The bowling of West Indian team was very strong but Pakistani players played very well and they scored 250 runs with the loss of seven wickets.
The West Indian players started batting after Lunch. The famous West Indian player played very fast but soon he was out.

Essay on Low Purchasing Power

Prices play a very vital role in the modern economy particularly the one which involves a free enterprise system. They guide and organize, like an invisible hand, almost all the economic activities concerning production, consumption, distribution and exchange of goods and services. The important functions usually performed by the prices perform the function of Co-ordination between consumption and production automatically. The consumers are able to convey their preferences through the prices they are willing to offer.

Similarly, the producers are able to indicate the channels into which they would allocate their productive resources. When price of a commodity rises it checks demand and stimulates supply, and vice versa. The price of a commodity or a service constitutes an income, which is through purchasing power, determines the extent and direction of economic activities. Due to this important function of prices there seems to be every justification to say, that the modern free enterprise system is governed by prices.

Prices are supposed to harmonize the interest of both the consumers and the producers. According to Beriham, ‘They tend to harmonize the desire of entrepreneurs for profits and the desire of consumers to satisfy their wants as fully as possible from the factors of production available. Prices automatically allocate the productive resources among the various uses in such a manner that each makes a maximum contribution to the total output.

Any misallocation is rectified through the price indicators. Price allocates the available labour force of a country by balancing the relevant supply and demand without any favoritism and injustice.
Analyzing the role of prices in an economy it can be concluded that the movements of prices can control the whole working of economy. Therefore, the factors including fiscal and monetary policies and institutions which are responsible to determine the direct ions of movements should be exploited very wisely. A healthy and smooth working of an economy largely depends upon the smooth movements of prices. Abrupt changes in movement of prices result in far- reaching distortions in the working of an economy.

The inflationary pressure in Pakistan has been considered mainly due to the global cause by the experts and economists. Being linked with the economies of other countries on basis of foreign trade, economic assistance, transfer t technology and direct foreign investment, Pakistan cannot avoid its impact. However, Pakistan has to suffer harder than the other due to her particular domestic circumstances; prolonged adverse position of balance of payments, extension deficit financing, international currency disturbances and acute shortage of commodities surplus to be exported. Besides, the constant increase in prices of imports such as wheat edible oils, petroleum and various kinds of machinery etc. has put Pakistan in great trouble. Since the last thirty years constructional activities in both the public and private sectors have increased to a great extent. The expenditure on construction have considerably increased the total supply of money in the country which has ultimately led to galloping inflation in Pakistan- To ease the burden of debt servicing and to lower the budget deficit a transparent privatization programme can help effectively. For this purpose, privatization proceeds should be properly used for debt retirement.
