Dear lord krishna:

You may not know this, but the fact of the matter is that {Paki engineering will be renowned in all the world.} at least in my city, where we have several thriving engineering companies started by people from Pakistan.

Uooph allah, ab lagey gee mircheee, eh!

{ Behram,

In Austin? Can you name them? } Why don`t you Google them for yourself?

But again code coolies like yourself may not know the names of these thriving consulting firms.

Re: # 116

Behram,

Come on tell it man. If you claim something, you must be knowing it. Why not spit it out?
What is the problem?

Very Respectfully Submitted

Re: # 116

Behram,

Still waiting. I have been reading Tech Monday section of Austin American Statesman
for last 12/13 years, every week. They do profile start-ups, technical companies in
Austin area. Do not remember reading about any such companies.

If you are feeling shy telling about them over the internet, we can meet over lunch
at ThreadGills or Chuy`s and you can tell me all about these wonderful thriving companies.

Dear shishapa:

{They do profile start-ups, technical companies in Austin area.}

And who suggested that these were startups technical companies? eh!

You just want to read into posts and makeup your own mind, it seems. The bhang that goes around in this city has gotten into you, or it seems. Pakistanis have many engineering companies in our State, much more than the hindoo lot around here.

Respectfully submitted,

#111, JJ singh`s family si also from Rawalpindi area. I am not sure if he was born there or not. He is married to a Sikh woman. In fact his mother-in-law Prabhjot Kaur is a renown Punjabi writer and so is his father in law Col. Narinderpal Singh who has written many novels in Punjabi with historical backdrop.

Romair:

Write about you experience in Pakistan, here. It seems you have thought through some of the issues and opportunities there.

{Let`s see you put names out...unless you name a few paki owned companies, you`re full of it....}

And why would I do that? uh! Your Indian code coolies can certainly figure it out for themselves, can they not?

It is the Hindoos, who are full of it, which I have been mentioning here on the Chowk for a long time. When it comes to the greatness of Pakistanis, Hindoo jealousy knows no boundaries. Just don`t worry about Pakistani Engineers in the US (and that is how this string of posts got started). We are doing just fine in our professional businesses.

Do you get it?

Right...so the names of the super-successful paki hi-tech companies are super secret...just like the names of the paki billionaires who Tom Friedman should have profiled but didn`t are super-secret...

Indian parsis: Tatas.
Paki parsis: behram..

#126 i know one who has a nice shop called raza microelectronic with some good (leading) network-processor chips ..most likely will be bought out by AMD. its more of a venture play (romair type..pakis provide management and injuns do the work).

behram would not know this kinda stuff..he is more into county building and waste-water codes kinda engineering ;-)

anil #123: ``Write about you experience in Pakistan, here. It seems you have thought through some of the issues and opportunities there.``

....i spent six months in pakistan and uae last year........the aim was to do research from a business point of view for potential opportunities in pakistan.....during this time, i had a chance to work on a political book for a friend......this resulted in getting a chance to interview and hold discussions with some very prominent pakistani politicians and govt. figures.........this was, of course, in addition to actually getting a good look at the pakistani private sector - specifically in the IT and financial sector........along with this, i had a chance to see what the pakistan military is doing in the business sphere, how it created the current govt. etc............i also had a chance to meet some human rights organizations as they visited jails...........

quite an informative experience.......really got things from the horse`s mouth and learned more about pakistan than i had in my whole life before.........far too much, ``inside`` information to write it all here........some nuggets that people may be interested in:.........the current ruling party, pml(q) was actually set up by the efforts of one serving major general.........he was given the task of threatening the politicians and forcing them to become lotas........
