Changing Life Style in Pakistan

No department of life – be it economic, cultural, religious or recreational – has been free from the effect
of this great transformation in progress. The old system of classification and stratification of society as a
whole is changing gradually and slowly but surely and certainly.

We may go for some little changes. For instance, we may change clothing style. We may change our
room setting. We may change our eating stuff. We may do whatever makes us happy.

Movement is the stuff and essence of life, both for individual and the society. From the independence day
of August 14, 1947 up to date, Pakistan’s has been a society in transition. The society of Pakistan is
dynamic and therefore ever-changing, and its patterns are changing transforming from time to time. The
national society has been responding to the challenges of environment, natural and man-made. No
department of life – be it economic, cultural, religious or recreational – has been free from the effect of
this great transformation in progress. The old system of classification and stratification of society as a
whole is changing gradually and slowly but surely and certainly.

The factors and circumstances responsible for these changes can be enumerated as below; partition of
sub-continent, technological and scientific inventions, growth of urbanization and industrialization,
expansion of commercial activities and international trade, changes in the economic structure of the
country initiating the industrialization of its economy, the spread of literacy resulting in the rise of a
secular intelligentsia, the effect of the spread of different ideologies of different political parties in the
country, the impact of the highly developed countries of the world on our society, the working and
influence of the trade union and co-operative movement, the expansion of the area reached by the mass
media of communication like radio, press, cinema, television etc. migration and finally cultural diffusion.

Changes are the spice of life. Is it true? Of course YES! It is true because everybody needs a change in
whatever he is doing. We want changes around us. Monotonous life just makes us feel bored. It is good to
have a change. It is not important that we should go for big changes everyday. We may go for little
changes that should be pretty affordable. If we are seeking for a healthy and entertaining life then changes
are very important. Changes must be positive. If we will go for negative ones then they will obviously
have a negative impact upon our lives. Negative impacts are accountable for some more negative changes
so we need to be assiduous in this regard.

We may go for some little changes. For instance, we may change clothing style. We may change our
room setting. We may change our eating stuff. We may do whatever makes us happy. Whatever you do to
have a change but one ting is important that these changes should not bother you in any way. Change your
life the way you want to change but be careful that these changes should be better for all.

The micro credit boom and changing economic setup is a major cause of increasing carbon emissions in
Pakistan. People now prefer to use costly items to maintain their standard of living that consume more
energy, environmentalists said.

Zikriya Sajjid, a teacher at the University of Karachi (KU), Department of Mass Communication told that
adopting simple life style is the only way out to meet the present-day energy crisis and reduce emissions.
“We are adopting a luxurious life style, which is leading to environmental problems around ourselves, he
added.

The world community is celebrating the Environment Day on June 5 to mark the date of the Stockholm
Conference on Human and Environment held on June 5, 1972. Each year, the day is celebrated to promote
public awareness about conservation and environmental protection.

The theme for World Environment Day 2008 is ‘Kick the habit: Towards a low-carbon economy’, which
emphasizes the need to change lifestyles in order to reduce carbon emissions into the atmosphere. Zikriya
Sajjid suggested that cheap technology of alternative energy should be promoted so that the common man
can afford to have access to this benefit. In this connection, he urged local investors to come forward and
manufacture local tools – because presently imported equipment cause more cost up to Rs500 per watt
energy. If they manufacture these tools locally it can cost less than Rs300 per watt, which is affordable for
ordinary people.

Hardly a few years ago, Pakistan had surplus electricity and offered to India to export electricity to the
country. But now, because the citizens have adopted such a high standard of living the government of
Pakistan is unable to resolve the energy crisis. The lavish way of life has led to an increase in energy
consumption, Zikriya Sajid said, adding that “we are unable to utilize our own resources for addressing
the power crisis here.” He suggested that government take steps to introduce wind energy, solar energy
and nuclear energy so that emissions can be reduced.

The Pakistan Council of Renewable Energy Technologies (PCRET) has been assigned the responsibility
of research and development dissemination to provide training and promote renewable energy
technologies in the country. Pakistan started using renewable energy in the 60s when 18 villages were
electrified using photovoltaic. Meanwhile, solar panels were used to desalinate seawater at Gwadar, but
the progress remained slow.

“Trends of the people of particular area to celebrate the events of happiness and grief according to the
preset norms, values and tradition of the particular area or reluctance or acceptance in adoption of new
things”.

During the last few years Pakistan adopted variety of things and also abolish lot of things. Adoption rate
is so high than the deletion of things. Examples of the culture are the Punjabi, Sindi, Balochi and Phatan
culture in Pakistan.

Scientifically culture is the particular habitat where different species of animal lead their lives with a high
degree of interdependence. In this culture some animals are powerful while others are weak, stronger
animal dominant the weaker one’s and ultimately they swallow the weaker animal’s b/c animal have no
knowledge and wisdom. But there is an animal, which has knowledge and wisdom but also, behaves like
proud animals, this animal is human being. This animal uses different tools and ways to disgrace weaker
section of the community; kill them, abuse them, scold them, laugh at them, make fun of them and
ultimately deprives them from their native right of universal freedom and compel them to live just to
serve the stronger section of the community. Now the stage drama culture strengthens this process by
introducing different new style and words to make laugh someone and disgrace some others.

This culture also has some traditions to make other people laugh by telling lie, joking at them, boasting,
making unrealistic stories about other, creation of imaginary writing or acting, the actor are just like the
cartoons and the drama is their show in the dual hand of director producer and public in front of stage.

By the last few years this cartoon culture flourished much, which involved people of every age. Every
body laughs widely on their act and enjoy themselves. The people feel that they are now free from the
bitter reality of the cruel life while watching them. Those who are use to this culture become senseless
and have no regard to the people in difficulty but they claim that they are very sensitive b/c they depicts
the very minute things “which are usually neglected by the society” in their writing or acting to induce
thinking on that point in the society. Infact they have no aim behind this except to attract people’s
attention and accumulate money. This drama culture demolishes many traditions and values of our
society.

Our society strongly believes in relationships but this culture use these as a source of enjoyment, so the
element of respect has completely vanished. The very close relatives i.e. Father, mother, brothers, sisters
are the big source of enjoyment for them. They through jokes on them and insult on the stage in the front
of hundred of people. They compel their sisters to dance and felt prestige happiness while watching their
dance. Although all the relation is temporary in nature but they have used the word dady, mama, brother
and sister while acting in the stage play. These relations are losing their sacredness and uniqueness. For
these people the words, like Father, mother, brothers, and sisters have no meanings at the stage. They treat
all the people same on the stage during play or drama. There is no body younger or elder in play all of
equal age so they through jokes on one and other with no regard to the age of targeted person. Some other
social relationship is also greatly affected by this drama culture. All close friends and relatives are then
the person who are directly or indirectly involve in these activities. Father, mother, brothers, and sisters all
are enjoying themselves while working in the play.

Pakistan's fashion revolution has shifted into second gear, evident by the increasing number of designer
stores mushrooming all across the cities. Stalwarts like Amir Adnan, HSY, Maheen, Sonya Battla,
Deepak Perwani and Karma have enjoyed retail presence for a long time but now, even designers like
Nomi Ansari, Sara Shahid, Saman Arif (Nayna) and Zara Shahjahan who have been eyeing the market
skeptically, are throwing caution to the wind.

They have realized that the numbers are getting big and the money game bigger. And now when the
industry has decided to shake off the stigma of made-to-order bridals, it's time to dive into the mass
market head-on and prepare to invest in inexpensive ready to wear, made available in retail aisles of mass
market stores. It's the need of the hour and that should become the order of the day.
The habit of continually changing the style of clothing, glasses, shoes, hair styles and even now a days
mobiles and vehicles are part of fashions. In modern times fashion is prevailing not only in these things
but it is also ranging from colors of insets in a home to offices of multinationals organizations. But
generally fashion is taken as how to improve personality and how to look smart and up to date. Both
electronic and print media are playing a pivotal role in this regard.

Fashion has gone through changes in this century and especially in women’s fashion, in the dressing and
adorning of the hair, became equally complex and changing. Fashion, by definition, changes constantly its
almost standing alone in comparison with other walks of life as long as change is concerned. But it is
actually we who are responsible for changes in fashion as it is rightly said that “Things don’t change, we
change”. Young People enjoy the diversity and change in their looks and outfits and they are playing key
role to fashion industry .Young boys and girls are always in craze to look smart and up to date. It is also
in human nature to look smart and be appreciated by the social circle of one’s own.

All the effect that I mention above has very strong impact on the mind of the children and the teenager.
Although the process of changing believes is very slow but it have everlasting impact. Until we don’t take
collectively action to stop this vulgar culture, it can never be stopped. So we should collectively work to
stop this to save our nation from destruction.

I acknowledge that enjoyment is the part of the life and life becomes so colorless without this, but there
are several means of enjoyment. Enjoyment should be productive, free from prejudices, lies and all kind
of cheatings. Now we should be care about the norms and values of the society and we should work
together for the sake of these.
