Plz... The guy himself on camera has said, that pakistanis dont feel respected nor get any prestige while living there INCLUDING HIMSELF.
He doesnt even consider it his home.
Like imran said, a donkey stays a donkey
Did you read his book? He refers derogatorily to a certain type of Pakistani, the boot lickers and ingratiators. I wonder who that would apply to? He has massive respect for the others, the ones who stand tall and don't bow and scrape in front of others even on foreign shores.

2022 gets better and better for overseas youth.
Their fake messiah got booted out and now he has ended up calling them donkeys.
Yet indeginous Pakistanis want to flee Pakistan to become oversea donkeys. You couldn't make this stuff up.

Would be interesting to hear how strong cricket as a sport is in a 3rd gen overseas Pakistani family? And how relevant Imran Khan's cricket stardom is.
Like I said - scenes from Kabul if today immigration visas were granted.
Unfortunately, all this Overseas Paks are bad etc thing comes from a chip on the shoulder mentality which is obvious.
Indeed, and I firmly believe this chip is the size of Jupiter is a combination of the following : Jealousy, despair, dejection, dual nationality, superior FX rate, western Passport, welfare system, quality of life (though this can be very subjective), freedom of press, freedom of expression, and the opportunity to fulfil vices.
Above all, I think the main reason is said Pakistani cannot stomach the fact that Western Pakistanis have more rights (and money) than indigenous Pakistanis, coupled with an equal voice. This must truly burn them.
Didn't know that the situation back in Pakistan is such horrible
Basically what he is saying is an outsider can never really integrate completely and will never be fully accepted by natives.
But his choice of words are terrible. He called himself and all overseas Pakistanis as Donkeys.

This is not true as I know many Pakistanis who are doing really well back home and many Asians of Pakistani origin who would give their right arm to live that life in Pakistan.
My point is that there is no point generalizing just to make a few points.
Allah swt has defined how and where we live and its down to us to make the best of our lives and to improve the lives of others.
Incorrect. This is not a point of integration but allegiance.
The majority of Pakistanis, Indians, Sri Lankans, West Indians, South Americans, Antipodeans, Far Eastern Asians, and southern Europeans, will happily integrate, but also support their ethnic origin teams before supporting England/USA.
Go look at the matches when India and Pakistan play England as an example. You will see desis flying Pakistani/Indian flags, wearing Pakistani/Indian tops, wearing Pakistani/Indian stickers on their face - and not English flags.
You got to be born and bred in the West to understand why, and worse case, raised in the Western educational system like IK was, to understand why.

All this is good for first generation desis, but what about the 2nd generation ones in Britain? Supporting a team in cricket is one thing, but where would their fealty lie in case a skirmish breaks out between the two countries?
Whatever be right or wrong, i can never support another country nor its politicians over the one i was born in. Hence i am surprised to see so much support here for IK who is open in his condemnation for the West & his pro-China bias.
Loyalty must always be to the country you call home, but that doesn't mean a Brit has to accept every policy his or her govt implements. So if Imran Khan wants to condemn the bombing of his Pakistan territory, he is well justified to be perfectly honest, you will find plenty of westerners who agree with him. And if he is pro-China because he believes that's the way forward for Pakistan, that's his look out, not my problem.
I was referring to the Pakistanis that have a chip on their shoulder with respect to overseas Pakistanis.
Here's the issue : The majority of Overseas Pakistanis, if true to themselves, will testify that life in Pakistan is head and shoulders above life in the West. (This goes for any ethnic minority in the West). If tomorrow Pakistan's Judicial, Social, & Health system were corrupt free, Western Pakistanis would indeed move to Pakistan.
Instead, overseas Pakistanis are living the best of 2 lives; life in the West, and life in Pakistan - but the Pakistanis with chips on their shoulders cannot stomach the benefits of dual nationality, cross border rights and investment, and of course foreign funding and voting.
Overseas Pakistanis is a very broad term. There is a gulf in difference between the sensibilities, ethics, lifestyles, education, issues etc between the type that someone like Imran Khan actually hangs out with and the the type that actually vote for him mesmerized by his cult of personality.
I personally have seen a lot of difference between the average American Pakistani that I interact with and some British origin Pakistanis on this forum in a lot of things. At least on the surface.
Ok we locals have been stoped from excelling due to chor gang.
Again, what about the overseas that are already living their? Or does chor gang also effect them somehow due to no jurisdiction?
IK has a right to do whatever he wants, but as an American or a Brit, my focus will be whatever is right for my country even if it clashes with the viewpoint of the country of my forefathers. For eg, a first generation immigrant like Ilhan Omar can have her own views but i would question her fealty to America if she meets & praises somebody who has accused her own government of conspiracy. Thats the difference between a native & an immigrant.
