That's why we always keep saying basic education is a must, these people travel to the world but don't learn the basic humane values.
Send them to school pls before you send them to an international platform https://t.co/1syAHjAktj
what is this behavior of Pakistani cricketers?
People in Pakistan are craving for daily needs of roti and cricketers are shamelessly posting such videos. https://t.co/298JYtJDON
Pakistani, awam, like you are really a bunch of insensitive jerks. People are dying due to food shortage in Pakistan, and this guy, instead of donating money to them, is paying for interet wifi and expensive mobile while sitting under a roof and mocking poor people. https://t.co/rU1Thdfiai
