    I have just been to one of the listed branches in Karachi; people were fighting for the forms. Makes me wonder if Air force cannot manage to deal at initial stages (form disbursement through few branches which can be counted on fingers) then how come they manage to run this scheme which is very dubious in its own way.

    Collecting money from people in the name of registration and not knowing what they are going to buy later. Against the Islamic rules I guess in Islamic republic of Pakistan done by key member of the state (hmm).

    My Humble Request to PAF!
    Dear Sirs,
    1)Please issue forms on the basis of production of Original CNIC, and put that CNIC Number on issued form, so that no one can re-sale the form in market making Black Money. In this way, the rush will be clear and only genuine buyer will stand in queue to get form on his/her CNIC.
    2)Kindly open some more windows in the designated Bank to cater the need.
    3)Please allow Registration Process for 2 months’ time, so that everyone can easily get himself/herself registered with Fazaia Housing Society with no panic.
    4)CNIC Number on Form is must to stop Black Marketing of Registration Form.
    5)Transfer of Registration must be upon payment of certain fee to FAZAIA.
    Hope the management of FAZAIA Housing Scheme (PAF) will take reasonable action on my suggestions.
    Thanking you

    Superb blog! Do you have any tips for aspiring writers?
    I’m hoping to start my own website soon but I’m a little lost on everything.
    Would you suggest starting with a free platform like
    WordPress or go for a paid option? There are so many options out there
    that I’m totally overwhelmed .. Any ideas? Bless you!
