Prepare our youth for tomorrow, please!
Pakistani TV channels are a mere disappointment. 24 hours of negative/political news. Don't we have any good thing to show to our viewers except spreading hate and dividing the country? Politicians are good enough at it already. The mainstream media can do better. Once it sets the pattern, social media follows it automatically.
The TV needs to talk about technology, progress, prosperity, and the country's top achievers. Bring the best people from different walks of life?. Why not show us the achievements of good people across the globe in science, social work, technology, and education so the de-tracked youth is inspired.
It seems like political news is all every channel wants to focus on to get a rating. The quality dramas being played other than news channels, well... they are only dramas.
We the kid of the late '70s grew up watching programs such as Kasoti, etc. The daily morning tone used to be set by Mustansir Tarar sb before going to school. Neelam Ghar was very informative and most of the drama's quality/theme was just too good.
Youth needs to be educated about META world, NFT, Crypto, Gaming opportunities, and yes Blockchain. There's not a single program that talks about Artificial intelligence leave alone Augmented reality. No wonder we are deliberately pushed to the stone age as the rest of the world is progressing at a rapid pace.
We can't turn back the clock but we can learn from our past mistakes and improve the content of mainstream TV. Prepare the youth for tomorrow before it is too late.
Hum kis gali ja rahai hain...
