Prime minister pakistan announced corona relief Tiger

PM Imran announces launch of 'Corona Relief Tigers' to preempt virus' worst case scenario

• Prime Minister Imran Khan on Friday announced the launch of a youth force labelled "corona relief tigers" which will lead the fight against the coronavirus in Pakistan.

"Recruitment for corona relief tigers will formally begin on March 31. We are calling upon all volunteers," said the premier during a special briefing to the media.

Noting that the virus has spread dramatically across the globe, with the United States emerging as the new epicentre, the premier said: "No one can say today what the situation will be two weeks down the line."

1. That's why we have to be prepared for the worst case scenario (in Pakistan) in case the number of cases spikes," he said.

Referring to President Arif Alvi's visit to China during which he was accompanied by Minister for Planning, Development, and Special Initiatives Asad Umar and Minister for Foreign Affairs Shah Mahmood Qureshi, the premier said that the Pakistani delegation asked China how they controlled the situation at a time when there were close to 60,000 cases in Wuhan.

"It is important to note that when they enforced a lockdown, they delivered food to people's homes."

He said that Pakistani students recalled that the government would send supplies straight to their hostels.

"In Pakistan, this is a tall order. Today, if we want to lockdown, we don't have the infrastructure to get food to people's homes.

"So I am announcing today, we are developing a special youth force. Preparations for this are in full swing. We will have a membership drive with the citizen's portal," said PM Imran.

He reminded everyone that "we have the world's second largest youth population" which is a great source of strength for the nation.

"The corona relief tigers will be sent all over Pakistan. We will map out where there is a spike in cases and these tigers will be sent to those areas to deliver essential supplies."

Transport restrictions lifted

The prime minister also announced a lifting of restrictions on transport . "We have also decided that factories, edible items and the energy sector [...] industries attached to food items, will continue to function unhampered.

"Our aim is to not have people gather but all the while, there must be no obstruction to the supply side of things.

"This is a difficult balance to strike. We don't want the virus to spread and we don't want to have people dying in our bid to stop the virus," said the premier.

He said restrictions on passenger transport will remain in place.

'Prime minister's corona fund'

The prime minister said that in the coming week, a 'corona fund' will also be announced, which will welcome charitable donations so that the underpriveleged can be looked after.

"Data on our daily wagers is being collected. We will also dispense funds from the Ehsas programme and then this fund will be an added source to help people buy essential items for their families."

Labelling this an unprecedented initiative and putting stock in people's charitable spirits, the prime minister said that Pakistanis donate like no other nation in the world. He recalled earthquakes and floods which had wreaked much damage in the country but put no dent in people's willingness to help.

"But what happened was there was a duplication of services. There were areas where there was a great amount of work done and some in which there was no one and people were left hungry," said PM Imran.

He said with the use of information technology and the Ehsas initiative, everyone who wishes to donate will be registered and will be able to see which areas need the most assistance.

"Everyone will know who is doing what and where."

SBP account for overseas Pakistanis

The premier acknowledged that in the backdrop of the crisis, Pakistan will see a drop in remittances and foreign exchange reserves will be impacted.

To counter this, he said an account will be opened in State Bank of Pakistan, for which details will be provided on Monday or Tuesday.

"Right now, the Pakistani people are most in need of donations from abroad. I want overseas Pakistanis to deposit their money here so pressure from our foreign exchange reserves is relieved," said the prime minister.

"This will be the fund that will pull the country out from these difficult times."

'Food not short, supply a problem'

The premier then addressed the matter of a shortage of food items, especially wheat, clarifying that there is only the problem of transporting it due to lockdowns.

Federal Minister for Food Security Khusro Bakhtiar then provided "an exact picture" of the situation.

He said that tabulations for seven essential food items had been done to ascertain their stock across various districts.

"Where there is a shortage, the province will fulfil the demand. We have mapped out the country's transport needs for this."

He said that there had been a run on wheat due to the lockdowns and then there had been wheat procurement which Sindh and Passco (Pakistan Agricultural Storage and Services Corporation) had undertaken.

"Provinces are completing their targets and our aim is to not involve the private sector at this point.

"We have developed a mechanism with all the provinces today under which a certain quantity will be bought from Sindh by Sindh government, Pasco and the private sector," explained Bakhtiar.

The wheat will be brought to Punjab and delivered to KP as per the quantity determined, he said.

An agreement with the floor mills association was also made, said the minister.

"Under the agreement, the ratio of wheat to wheat flour has been increased by 20 per cent. So the same amount of wheat will now yield more and better quality wheat flour."

"And we will advise Sindh and other provinces to adopt this policy."

He said there was plentiful supply of wheat — 1.6 tonnes to be precise — currently available in the public sector. "Wheat harvest has begun in Sindh and will be done in the country's northern regions as well, soon. This is enough to cater to the demand until next season."

• He expressed confidence that supply chains will function smoothly in a day or two.
  

History. The Falk lands War. 1982

There Falklands War was a 10-week undeclared war between Argentina and the United Kingdom in 1982 over two British dependent territories in the South Atlantic: the Falkland Islands and its territorial dependency, South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands.
The conflict began on 2 April, when Argentina invaded and occupied the Falkland Islands, followed by the invasion of South Georgia the next day, in an attempt to establish the sovereignty it had claimed over them. On 5 April, the British government dispatched a naval task force to engage the Argentine Navy and Air Force before making an amphibious assault on the islands. The conflict lasted 74 days and ended with the Argentine surrender on 14 June, returning the islands to British control. In total, 649 Argentine military personnel, 255 British military personnel, and three Falkland Islanders died during the hostilities.
The conflict was a major episode in the protracted dispute over the territories' sovereignty. Argentina asserted that the islands are Argentine territory, and the Argentine government thus characterised its military action as the reclamation of its own territory.

فاکلینڈز جنگ 1982 میں ارجنٹائن اور برطانیہ کے مابین جنوبی بحر اوقیانوس کے دو برطانوی انحصار والے علاقوں: فاک لینڈ جزیرے اور اس کی علاقائی انحصار ، جنوبی جارجیا اور جزیرہ جنوبی سینڈ وچ کے مابین 10 ہفتوں کی غیر اعلان شدہ جنگ تھی۔

• یہ تنازعہ 2 اپریل کو شروع ہوا ، جب ارجنٹائن نے فاک لینڈ جزیرے پر حملہ کیا اور اس پر قبضہ کرلیا ، اس کے بعد اگلے ہی دن جنوبی جارجیا پر حملہ ہوا ، اس کے بعد اس نے ان پر خود مختاری کا دعوی کیا تھا۔ 5 اپریل کو ، برطانوی حکومت نے جزیروں پر ایک عمیقانہ حملہ کرنے سے پہلے ارجنٹائن نیوی اور ایئر فورس کو شامل کرنے کے لئے ایک بحری ٹاسک فورس روانہ کی۔ یہ تنازعہ 74 دن تک جاری رہا اور 14 جون کو ارجنٹائن کے ہتھیار ڈالنے کے ساتھ اختتام پذیر ہوا ، یہ جزائر برطانوی کنٹرول میں واپس ہوگئے۔ مجموعی طور پر ، 649 ارجنٹائن کے فوجی اہلکار ، 255 برطانوی فوجی اہلکار ، اور تین فاکلینڈ جزیرے دشمنی کے دوران ہلاک ہوگئے۔

• یہ تنازعات علاقوں کی خودمختاری پر طویل تنازعہ کی ایک بڑی کڑی تھی۔ ارجنٹائن نے زور دے کر کہا کہ یہ جزیرے ارجنٹائن کا علاقہ ہیں ، اور اس طرح ارجنٹائن کی حکومت نے اپنی فوجی کارروائی کو اپنے ہی علاقے کی بازیابی کے طور پر نمایاں کیا۔

Why lockdown important in pakistan

پاکستان میں لاک ڈاؤن کیوں ضروری تھا ۔

کرونا جسے عالمی سطح پر وبا قرار دیا جا چکا ہے۔ چین، ایران، اٹلی اور جنوبی کوریا میں اپنی دہشت کے پنجے گاڑنے کے بعد اس وبائی مرض نے اب تقریباً سارے عالم کو اپنی جکڑ میں لے لیا ہے۔ پاکستان اور بھارت بھی اس لپیٹے میں آ گَئے ہِیں اور یہ غیر متوقع نہِیں تھا، ایران اور چین کے پڑوس میں واقع ہونے کے ناطے، اس وائرس کا سارک ممالک میں پھیلاؤ یقینی تھا، بس سوال تھا تو وقت کا تھا کہ کب پھیلے گا؟

پاکستان میں کرونا سے متاثرین کی تعداد بہت تیزی سے بڑھ رہی ہے تو ایسے میں ایک سوال جو ہر ذی شعور پاکستانی کے دماغ میں ہو گا، وہ سوال ہو گا۔ پاکستان اس مرض کا مقابلہ کرنے کے لئے کتنا تیار ہے؟ تو اس ضمن میں اب تک کے اعداد و شمار کو بنیاد بنا کر چند نکات کی نشاندہی کرنے کی کوشش کی ہے۔ اگر مرض کا پھیلاؤ اور اموات کی شرح کو دیکھا جائے تو سب سے زیادہ مریض بالترتیب اٹلی، چین اور ایران میں ہیں، اور اموات کی تعداد بھی انہی ممالک میں زیادہ ہے، لیکن چین کی شرح اموات نسبتاً کم اور اٹلی ایران کی بہت زیادہ ہے۔ اسی طرح فلپائن اورعراق بھی کم متاثرین ہونے کے باوجود شرح اموات کے لحاظ سے کافی اوپر ہیں، جب کہ دوسری طرف جنوبی کوریا، جرمنی اور سوئٹزرلینڈ زیادہ تعداد میں متاثر ہونے کے باوجود اس مرض سے ہونے والی اموات کو کم سطح پر رکھنے میں کامیاب ہوئے ہیں۔

اٹلی کے حوالے سے جو پہلی بات ذہن میں آتی ہے، وہ اٹلی کی آبادی میں بوڑھوں کی زیادہ تعداد ہے۔ اٹلی کی نصف آبادی 47 سال سے زائد عمر کی ہے، جو اسے کرونا کے حوالے سے ایک آسان ٹارگٹ بناتی ہے۔ لیکن اسی پیمانے پر اگر جاپان کو دیکھا جائے، جہاں پر نصف آبادی 47  سے زائد عمر کی ہے، وہاں پر کرونا کا پھیلاؤ بھی کم رہا ہے اور متاثرین میں شرح اموات بھی عالمی شرح سے کم ہی ہے۔ اس ضمن میں افریقہ کے بیشتر ممالک میں نوجوان آبادی بہت زیادہ ہے اور ابھی تک کے اعداد و شمار میں وہاں مرض کا پھیلاؤ بہت کم ہے۔

پاکستان میں بھی نصف آبادی 23٫8 سال سے کم عمر ہے تو کرونا کا مقابلہ کرنے کے حوالے سے ایک اچھا پہلو ہے، لیکن ایک چیز یاد رکھنی چاہیے کہ کرونا انفیکشن ہونے کے باوجود نوجوان بھلے آسانی سے صحت یاب ہو جاِئیں مگر اس دوران بزرگوں اور ادھیڑ عمر لوگوں سے ان کا میل ملاپ ان بزرگوں اور ادھیڑ عمر لوگوں کے لئے کافی خطرناک ثابت ہو سکتا ہے۔ کسی بھی ملک کی خوشحالی اس ملک کے لئے ناگہانی آفات پر قابو پانے میں مدد گار ثابت ہو سکتی ہے جب کہ مالی طور پر غریب ممالک اس حوالے سے جارحانہ اقدامات کرنے کے متحمل نہیں ہو سکتے۔

لیگٹم انسٹی ٹیوٹ (Legatum Institute) کے خوشحالی انڈیکس سے اگر دیکھا جائے تو جرمنی، نیدرلینڈ، بلجیئم، جاپان اور سوئٹزرلینڈ جیسے ممالک جنہوں نے زیادہ تعداد میں کرونا کیسز ہونے کے باوجود شرح اموات کو کنٹرول رکھا ہے تو اس میں ایک بڑا فیکٹر ان ممالک کا خوشحال ہونا بھی ہے، یہ تمام ممالک 25 خوشحال ممالک کی فہرست میں آتے ہیں جب کہ شرح اموات زیادہ ہونے والے ممالک میں ماسوائے اٹلی باقی سب کافی نیچے ہیں۔

• پاکستان اس لحاظ سے 156 ممالک کی درجہ بندی میں 140 نمبر پر ہے اور کرونا کے خلاف جنگ میں یہ کمزوری ایک لمحہ فکریہ ہو سکتی ہے۔

Why Lockdown Was Important In Pakistan

• 
  
• 
  
• 
  
• Corona, which has been declared a global epidemic. After inflicting its terror in China, Iran, Italy and South Korea, the epidemic has now engulfed the entire universe. Pakistan and India have also come under wraps and it was not unexpected, being located in Iran and China neighborhoods, the virus was sure to spread to SAARC countries, just the question was then when was the time to spread?
• 
  
• The number of victims of Corona in Pakistan is increasing very rapidly so one such question that will be in the mind of every Pakistani is the question. How prepared is Pakistan to fight this disease? So in this regard, I have tried to identify a few points based on the data so far. If the prevalence and mortality rates are seen in Italy, most patients are in Italy, China and Iran, respectively, and the number of deaths is higher in those countries, but the death rate is relatively low and Italy is very high in Iran. ۔ Likewise, the Philippines and Iraq are still very high in terms of fatalities, while South Korea, Germany and Switzerland, on the other hand, have managed to keep the death toll to a low level despite being heavily affected. Are.
• 
  
• The first thing that comes to mind with regard to Italy is the high number of the elderly in the population of Italy. Half of Italy's population is over 47 years old, making it an easy target for Corona. But even if Japan is seen on the same scale, where half the population is over 47, the prevalence of Corona is also less and the mortality rate among the victims is lower than the global rate. In this regard most of the African countries have a very young population and the prevalence of the disease is still very low in the data.
• 
  
• Half of the population in Pakistan is under the age of 23- 8 years, so it is a good thing to fight corona, but one thing to keep in mind is that young people recover easily despite being infected with Corona, but in the meantime the elderly. And their association with middle-aged people can be quite dangerous for these seniors and older people. The prosperity of any country can be helpful for this country in overcoming disasters, while financially poor countries cannot afford to take aggressive measures in this regard.
• 
  
• If you look at the prosperity index of the Legatum Institute, countries such as Germany, the Netherlands, Belgium, Japan and Switzerland, which have controlled the mortality despite the large number of Corona cases, are a major factor in these countries. To be prosperous, all these countries come in the list of 25 prosperous countries, with the exception of Italy in the countries with higher mortality rates are far below.
• 
  
• Pakistan is ranked 140th in the ranking of 156 countries in this regard and this weakness in the war against Corona can be a momentary thought.

Working from home: what are your employer's responsibilities, and what are yours?

So you’ve been asked to work from home.

Doing so usually requires changing aspects of your relationship with your employer. What it doesn’t change is that your relationship is based on mutual obligations. These remain exactly the same even though you work at home.

---

• R u ready. Coronavirus could spark a revolution in working from home.

---

Your employer’s duties, under both industrial relations and work health and safety laws, are to ensure you are able to work safely at home, and to cover reasonable expenses. Your obligation is to work if you want to be paid.

A safe workspace

In Australia, an employer has a duty of care legal for the health and safety of workers “so far as is reasonably practicable”. This duty is contained under the uniform work health and safety legislation of states and territories – see, for example, the Queensland legislation.

That duty of care extends to anywhere work is performed. If you are asked to work from home, your employer is responsible to ensure this does not pose a risk to your health and safety.

---

Read more: It's not just the isolation. Working from home has surprising downsides

---

Some organisations conduct formal inspections of homes before approving working-from-home arrangements. That may not be practical in current circumstances.

The next best option might be a virtual tour using virtual meeting software such as Google hangouts or Zoom. At a minimum, your employer should provide you with a health and safety checklist, specifying considerations such as:

• a safe work space free from trip hazards (such as rugs and cables)
• a broadly safe environment including an exit, smoke alarms and a first aid kit
• appropriate lighting and ventilation
• ergonomic requirements such as a desk large enough for tasks, phone and mouse within reach
• a chair that adjusts to ensure your feet are flat on the floor
• a computer screen positioned for your eyes to meet the top of the screen

Reimbursing expenses

Your employer’s primary responsibility under industrial relations law is to pay you for the work you do under applicable awards, enterprise agreements and contracts.

Your employer is also responsible for providing you with the appropriate resources for work to be carried out. These might include a computer with systems to access and protect work files, a headset, a webcam and virtual meeting software.

---

Read more: Working at home to avoid coronavirus? This tech lets you (almost) replicate the office

---

There is an implied obligation also to reimburse you for expenses incurred while working at home, such as extra electricity or internet access.

This obligation may be spelled out in an enterprise agreement or a working-from-home policy, but not all organisations have codified entitlements. You may need to establish with your employer what costs will be reimbursed, what limits apply, and what approvals are required.

If your employer does not reimburse you for running costs – because the paperwork is arduous and the amount usually small – remember you can also claim work-related expenses, including the cost of a dedicated work area, as tax deductions. Claimable expenses are set out on the Australian Taxation Office’s website.

Employee responsibilities

In allowing you to work from home, your employer is demonstrating a degree of trust that past generations of managers would have found unacceptable. Your obligation is to do the right thing even without direct supervision, observing the same practices as normally expected by your employer.

All your usual employee responsibilities from the workplace continue to apply, such as obeying lawful directions and working to the best of your ability.

Much has been written on how best to work at home. There are some common themes. Get dressed for work, so that you feel “at work” and behave accordingly. Maintain a separate work space, so there is a clear delineation between work and leisure. Ensure you take breaks to maintain your health and well-being.

---

Another aspect of well-being you will need to pay conscious attention to is minimising the psychological stress of isolation.

Working from home can be isolating in the best of times, and in the current situation this is arguably also an aspect of your employer’s duty of care. But this is something that cannot be easily codified and will require goodwill and negotiation. You and your employer may need to consider new routines for communication to ensure working at home is about physical distancing and social solidarity, not social isolation.
