SINDHI LANGUAGE POETRY AND DR ABDUL JABBAR JUNEJO

Dr Abdul Jabbar Junejo worked tirelessly to promote Sindhi language.

He was fluent in Urdu and English language.

More interestingly, he knew Chinese language as well.

Someone to learn such a difficult language certainly was a great skill.

Since he wrote a book about Persian poetry's influence on Sindhi poetry, indicates his love

and understanding of languages naturally.

I found this book titled, "Sindhi Lok Geet", when I visited Lok Virsa in Islamabad few years ago.

It ignited my interest, to know the local folklore stories that get passed through the

generations. Unfortuantely, the story telling tradition seem to be suffering since the new. mediums have been introduced with time. therefore one has to look for it in books etc.

Please do visit Lok Virsa in Islamabad, that proudly promotes various cultures of Pakistan through displays of arts, books and other audios such as CDs etc. You will find, displays of furniture, embroidery, paintings and almost live displays of various scenes of many colours of Pakistan.

Please do share, your own cultural experiences with us. Thanks

BALOCHISTAN'S ONGOING UNREST, "FLASHBACK"

A small page from recent history, just to remind ourselves, how long people of Balochistan have been suffering!

Fate of Balochistan's people?

Why there is still a question mark?

Four decades of few active political families and seven decades of Army influence, has not been able to establish peace and harmony. Now the news of a new plan for resources exploitation is circuling. Which generation of Baloches will enjoy their rights and live a peaceful life???

An interview with Dr Aazar Tammnna (late) on Balochistan was recorded few years ago. Dr Aazar speciliased in foreign affairs especially between Pakistan and America. We are sharing it with all of you to remind ourselves the unfortunate situation that has existed for numrous years and so far the most experience (so called) politicians have not achieved any success in restoring peace and harmony in that area.
