Pakistani channels (Urdu1, GEO etc.) are airing foreign shows (Indian, Turkish etc.) that are slow poison to our country.

These foreign shows are taking people away from their culture. Showing explicit scenes onscreen and destroying the mindsets of people is not acceptable. If this continues Pakistanis and Muslims will lose their values and get lost in the shuffle.

Additionally, it will lead to poverty and financial crisis. Now that channels have foreign content, they are not buying local content, which results in people losing their jobs and the country as a whole facing a loss. Our drama industry may also have to suffer the way our film industry suffered. There will be no jobs, no money and no opportunities for our youngsters.

THIS HAS TO BE STOPPED!

I am currently compiling a formal dossier of these signatures to submit directly to the Pakistan Electronic Media Regulatory Authority. My next step involves scheduling a meeting with broadcast policy analysts to discuss the economic impact of reduced local production.

About time someone said this. Our own actors are struggling to find work while these foreign soaps are everywhere. Bring back quality local dramas.

Why are we promoting other cultures on our own soil? It is disrespectful to our artists. BAN THIS CONTENT NOW.

The local industry is dying because of this nonsense. If we dont support our own producers now we will have nothing left to watch in a few years.

Totally agree. These shows have nothing to do with our culture and are ruining our youth. Stop airing them on primetime.
