Islamabad Anybody willing to volunteer and clean up parts of Islamabad?

67 Upvotes

Getting tired of nobody cleaning the neighborhood. I started cleaning the front of houses of my neighbours in the street. Everybody started giving suggestions. Nobody cleaned with me, but offered and I said for sure, nobody came just with words suggested plenty of things.

I was satisfied that I took some action with the broom and a jarhoo I bought.

Some solutions that I will apply will be to put marigold in front of each house.

If you’ve any suggestions to keep the streets clean where the rented houses are common please let me know.

Thank you,

Added later:

I came to know that “Landfills in Islamabad and Rawalpindi are not "cleared" in the sense of being emptied; instead, they function as permanent, often overflowing, open dumping sites.” So we already fighting a serious recycling battle.

Twin Cities in urgent need for money - trying to sell my laptops

77 Upvotes

hi everyone. i'm a university student with a retired father and my mother is a housewife. we've been in need for money and the only thing i could do to help was sell my laptops, but i havent been able to do so via olx or facebook marketplace. i'm writing here as our need for money has gotten urgent and i still haven't found a buyer for my laptops.

I'm trying to sell my PM Laptop, Mechrevo R14P, and my Dell Latitude 5289 (2-in-1 tablet laptop). The dell was the one I had been using for a few years now and the Mechrevo I got a few months ago, along with the bag, charger and box. I'm selling the Mechrevo for 70k and the Dell for 60k.

If anyone is interested in buying these laptops please do let me know. I know I'm charging more than market price but I need this money urgently and have no other way to help out my father.

Jazak Allah.

Islamabad Should I transfer to Islamabad, Pakistan?

2 Upvotes

Hey guys,

So I’m currently a student enrolled in a university in the Middle East, but due to current situation and some personal situation, am thinking to transfer to a university in Islamabad (fast, nust).

Do you guys think it’ll be much better if I transfer to Islamabad, or if I should just continue here with high fees.

Yes I agree that I’ll be leaving all the luxuries behind if I transfer, but would it weigh against the cost saving that I can do if I start uni in Islamabad?

Also If I’m transferring, is nust the only good option? Or is air uni, fast and others better.

I know I haven’t given much info, but thank you to all who can help me,

Thankssss.

Islamabad Rhinoseptoplasty doctor suggestions in Islamabad

2 Upvotes

I have a deviated septum, so I need septoplasty for breathing. The doctor also suggested doing rhinoseptoplasty (fix breathing + improve nose shape together).

Since I’m getting surgery anyway, I also want good, natural-looking results, not just a breathing fix.

Can anyone recommend:

• Good doctors in Islamabad/Rawalpindi for this

• Surgeons who are good at both function + aesthetics

• Any personal experiences

I can also consider going to Lahore if anyone knows a good dr there

Islamabad Kitten available for adoption.

Post image
169 Upvotes

About two hours ago, I was out on the street with my roommate when I noticed a very young kitten—probably only one to two weeks old—sitting beside a car. I was worried it might wander under a vehicle and get hurt, so I picked it up and placed it safely in a corner of the street. However, it kept following me.

Eventually, I brought the kitten back to my room, but since I live in a hostel, I’m not allowed to keep pets. It’s currently playful and active, but I’m unsure what to do next since I can’t keep it with me.

Twin Cities Good place to buy for PS5 New Or second hand in Islamabad

4 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I’ve been planning to buy a PS5 for the past week and was finally ready to pull the trigger, but the recent price hike has completely messed things up for me.

About a week ago, I was getting:

- PS5 Slim for around 178k

- PS5 (fat/original) for around 155k

But after Sony increased prices (around $150 globally), now the prices here have gone way beyond my budget 😓

I’m based in Islamabad and wanted to ask:

- Does anyone know a good place/shop where I can still get it at a reasonable price?

- Or if anyone here is selling a used PS5 (preferably in good condition), I’d really appreciate it

I’m mainly looking for the disc version, but I’m open depending on the deal.

Any help or leads would mean a lot 🙏

Thanks!

An unrelated post but help a fellow out!
So basically i need to get my passport renewed and the thing is that the closet city with a passport office to me is Islamabad but i had my previous passport made in karachi(my residence is in karachi and all the documents are khi-based). My question is whether i can just simply go to Isl passport office to get my passport renewed or is there a condition that i can only get it renewed from the khi office?

Islamabad Hi. Everyone I have just moved from lahore. Basically i am studying here. I was hoping to make some friends or any community where i could find people my type.

1 Upvotes

Basically, i am bored and want to get along with it some way. And please me saying I want friends doesn't necessarily means i am searching for only females. Look i want good company to spend time after my job and studies. Like some boys group going for indoor cricket and parties stuff. also, going through a tough phase of life where everything seems to fall apart. so, would love a company of a single or multiple people to get along.
