Hacking ostensibly is one of the most thriving businesses in the world. However, nasty hackers have now entrenched themselves in Europe as well. We used to hear about such thugs that they had found some safe havens in parts of Africa and certain Asian countries, mainly because of lose and flawed financial as well security controls in these countries. But surprisingly such villains now seem to be on the rampage even in the European countries where by and large adherence to laws is strict and even-handed.

Lessons to be learnt from Turkey
Ostensibly, Turkey has fared quite well under the banner of secularism and it stands out as an emerging economic power and potential military might in the region. Moreover, its strategic location has compelled even big powers such as the United States, Russia and Britain to cultivate friendly relations with Ankara. Obviously, these are plus points on which the Turkish nation can really count on. As we know, Turkey was once hub of instability because of incessant military interventions.

The whopping and mind-boggling increase in fuel prices has virtually left all and sundry nonplused; baffled and confused. If the incumbent government were following the proverbial dictum “actions should speak louder than words”, then surely it is treading the right path. Already pushed to the wall by the price hike specter and bad governance, the poor wretched Awam (people) have no other option but to clench their jaws and fists whenever drones of price are let loose on them.
Centreline has got letters from a number of retired government servants who have requested us to highlight their plight in the media. And what is their plight —– the federal government had given them a piece of land in Islamabad’s Sector G-14 in 2003 so that they could build their own house and live rest of their life happily. But to much of their disappointment since 2003 till date development work has so far not been carried out in the said sector despite the fact that these retired lots plus all other plot holders have already paid additional amounts to housing foundation. These additional sums were to be paid to the affected occupants so as to make them vacate the place.
