Fishing villageEdit
Karachi’s second largest fisherman locality of Mubarak Village- does not have basic facilities including jetty, gas, health and education, despite the fact that it existed even before the independence of Pakistan. Most of the local people are involved in fisheries. The major economic activity in the village is fishing followed by construction and community, social, and personal services. These neglected fishermen, whose forefathers had been living here for nearly 200 years, lack all basic amenities: they do not have any pier or jetty to offload their fish catch, nor they have access to clean water, education and health facilities. Recently, a maternity home’s building was also constructed by the city district government. Despite persistent demand by the people, no medical officer has been appointed so far. There are, however, no arrangements for dealing with emergency cases, particularly maternity cases.In 2009, Chief Minister Qaim Ali Shah had announced to develop Mubarak Village on modern lines and construction work was started there. The government installed electricity facilities, erected poles, started work on sewerage, education, healthcare and other projects of basic amenities in the area. After fifty percent work of the projects, the government stopped development work aborting the model village plan without any justification Now in half of the area, poles, PMTs, electric wires, etc. are installed to supply power to residents while the rest is still awaiting the government s response to have infrastructure for basic amenities.

Oil Spill from Churna Island to Mubarak VillageEdit
On October 2018 the fishermen of Mubarak Village could not ply their trade for weeks because of an oil spill along the coastal belt of Karachi. The spill caused major environmental hazards in the area. The federal, Sindh and Balochistan governments set up committees to probe the incident but to date, have failed to determine the cause. This has badly affected fishermen’s livelihood. Since the incident, fishermen have been unable to catch fish as the spill has badly damaged marine life and are only getting one meal per day. The provincial and federal governments should have launched a rehabilitation programme for the community, but they did not pay any attention in this regard.
Mama Haroon, Head of Mubarak VillageEdit
Mama Haroon was a head of Mubarak Village, who had been killed by land mafia in 2013. Mama Haroon fought against land mafia and saved the Mubarak Village's lands from land mafia. "Mubarak Village is residential areas, lands belong to poor Baloch fishermen, whose forefathers have been living here for the past 200 years", Mama Haroon always said this word, while he was alive. Mama had played his vital role for development of the village. He had never compromised on Baloch fishermen’s cause, who always struggled for their rights.

Sanssouci Palace, Germany

Sanssouci Palace, Germany Sans souci, which means “without concerns” in French, was the summer palace and private refuge of the King of Prussia, Freidrich the Great. A place where he could retreat without care to relax in the company of his greyhounds, the Schloss Sanssouci or Sanssouci Palace is located in the city of Potsdam, bordering Berlin. Built on raised ground with cascading vineyard terraces, the architecture of Sanssouci is more ‘Frederician Rococo’ because of a strong influence of the King’s personal tastes. The Palace was designed by Georg Wenzeslaus von Knobelsdorff, with construction starting in 1745 and completed by Jan Bouman in 1747.
