How to Manage Your Home Loan Repayments Effectively as a National in Dubai
Managing your home loan repayments in Dubai effectively as a national is important to ensure that you stay on top of your finances and avoid defaulting on your loan. Here are some tips to help you manage your home loan repayments effectively:
Tumblr media
Create a budget: Make a budget that takes into account all of your expenses and income. This will help you identify areas where you can cut back on spending and allocate more funds towards loan repayments.
Set up automatic payments: Set up automatic payments for your home loan so that your payments are made on time each month. This will help you avoid late payments or missed payments, which can negatively impact your credit score.
Consider making prepayments: If you have extra funds, consider making prepayments towards your home loan. This will help you reduce your interest burden and shorten your loan tenure.
Refinance your home loan: If you find that your home loan repayments are becoming unmanageable, consider refinancing your loan. This can help you get a lower interest rate or longer repayment tenure, which can help reduce your monthly repayments.
Avoid taking on additional debt: Try to avoid taking on additional debt while you are still repaying your home loan. This will help you avoid overburdening your finances and ensure that you can focus on repaying your existing debt.
Communicate with your lender: If you are experiencing financial difficulties or are unable to make your home loan repayments, communicate with your lender. They may be able to offer you a repayment plan or restructuring that can help you avoid defaulting on your loan.
By following these tips, you can effectively manage your home loan repayments as a national in Dubai and avoid defaulting on your loan.

On 20th September, 1967, the QE2 launched from John Brown’s yard in Clydebank.
Tumblr media
By the end of the 1950s, discussion over the replacement of the Queen Mary and Queen Elizabeth was taking place. The decision to replace the ‘Queens’ was deemed to be of national importance and as such a special committee, known as the Chandos Committee was created to advise the Government and to determine whether such a project was economically viable. Originally Cunard had wanted to build two new liners with the help of a Government subsidy, however the committee’s report proposed that the Government loan Cunard £18 million towards the construction of one vessel. The project became known as ‘Q3’ and six British shipyards were asked to tender – this prestigious project was a huge opportunity for home based shipbuilders to construct a transatlantic liner.
Tumblr media
The new ship, code-named  was built by John Brown & Company Ltd, Clydebank (later Upper Clyde Shipbuilders Ltd) and scheduled for May 1968. On 20th September 1967 the keel was launched by Queen Elizabeth II and the ship was named Queen Elizabeth 2. She was the last Atlantic Ocean Liner of it’s kind  to be built in the UK.
Tumblr media
QE2’s maiden transatlantic crossing set sail on 2 May 1969. She was well received by the American public, and became a profitable ship in her early years of service. During her first season, Cunard were able to repay £2.5 million of the Government loan. Her dual purpose design had allowed QE2 to thrive where her transatlantic counterparts could not.
In January 1971 while cruising in the Caribbean, QE2 received a distress call from the French liner Antilles. Antilles had run aground off the coast of Mustique in the Grenadines and caught fire. Being a fast ship in close proximity to the Antilles, QE2 went to her assistance.
Tumblr media
However, by the time the QE2 arrived the passengers had been taken ashore. Antilles passengers and crew were brought aboard QE2 and taken to Barbados. As a testament to the quality of service offered aboard QE2, some of the Antille’s passengers booked subsequent cruises on the Cunarder.
In May 1972, while at sea during a transatlantic crossing, Captain William Law received notification that there was a bomb aboard QE2. Cunard took this threat very seriously and alerted the British Government who sent a bomb disposal unit out to the ship. Bomb disposal experts parachuted into the sea close to the ship and were brought aboard by QE2’s tenders. After a full sweep of the ship, the all clear was given as it turned out to be a hoax.
Tumblr media
Later the FBI arrested the culprit for making similar threats against Pan American Airways. The bomb disposal teams were awarded the Queen’s Commendation for Brave Conduct.
As QE2’s cruising popularity increased and in response to the ongoing decline in shipping traffic on the North Atlantic, Cunard reduced the number of transatlantic crossings that QE2 took. The company maintained a strong summer presence on the Atlantic, however shifted the focus for the ship towards cruising. This saw QE2 undertake her first world cruise, an event that was well received – QE2 undertook a further 25 world cruises during her career.
Tumblr media
Queen Elizabeth 2 was retired from active Cunard service in November 2008. She had been acquired by the private equity arm of Dubai World, which planned to begin conversion of the vessel to a 500-room floating hotel moored at the Palm Jumeirah, Dubai.
Following a multi-million-dollar investment programme, the 13-deck ship has been restored to her former glory and today serves as a world-class entertainment, tourism, hotel and dining destination in Dubai.

Gen. Pervez Musharraf, Pakistan’s former president, died at age 79 in Dubai on Sunday after a long illness, according to a statement by the Pakistani military.
Musharraf’s military colleagues in Pakistan often praised him as daring, forthright, and brave—yet the primary legacy he leaves behind will feature none of those adjectives. Pakistan’s 10th president since independence will be remembered instead as a divisive, constitution-shredding military dictator who set Pakistan back decades.
When Musharraf took charge after a military coup in October 1999, Pakistan was not dissimilar from its neighbors China and India—countries with large populations but little economic vitality at the time. China and India, however, soon enjoyed massive growth as their economies opened up to the world and investments poured in and exports flowed out. Pakistan grew too—but not because of any changes in how Musharraf managed the economy. Instead, infusions of cash from the United States to help finance the so-called global war on terrorism bolstered solid (though unspectacular) macroeconomic numbers.
By the end of Musharraf’s tenure in 2008, Pakistan was a regional economic laggard. The country took yet another massive loan from the International Monetary Fund just weeks after he resigned. More importantly, however, insurgencies and violent political crises had engulfed three of Pakistan’s four provinces.
Democratic-minded Pakistanis often blame the United States for bolstering the country’s military dictators, and for good reason. Throughout the three extended periods when generals have run Pakistan—the 1960s, the 1980s, and the 2000s—they did so with vital political and economic support from Washington. That is what helped shore up every military dictator Pakistan has ever had to endure.
But Musharraf’s assistance to U.S. President George W. Bush’s war efforts reached a whole new level and made him something of a celebrity in the United States. In 2006, he became the first foreign head of state to appear on The Daily Show With Jon Stewart. It was a somewhat awkward appearance. Asked how he balanced the wishes of the United States and Pakistan, Musharraf said, “I’ve had to learn the art of tightrope-walking many times, and I think I’ve become quite an expert of that.”
He got a few laughs. But there was nothing funny about the mess he was trying to hide back home as he sought to further secure his grip on power by marketing himself as the sole Pakistani counterterrorism partner whom Americans could count on.
Born in 1943 to a middle-class household that migrated to Pakistan from India just four years later, Musharraf benefited from being in a well-educated and socially prominent family. His father worked for the government and eventually became a diplomat posted to Ankara, Turkey, where Musharraf spent seven years learning Turkish and growing fond of Mustafa Kemal Ataturk, the founding father of a sovereign and secular Turkey. At age 18, Musharraf joined the Pakistan Military Academy, from which he graduated with a bachelor’s degree in 1964.
He saw his first combat in Pakistan’s 1965 war with India, and he was also involved in combat operations in the 1971 war that led to the breakup of Pakistan (and the founding of Bangladesh). Musharraf came to be seen as a star officer and became a member of the elite Special Services Group of commandos in the Pakistan Army. He later taught at the Command and Staff College in Quetta and in the War Wing of the National Defence College.
In 1998, Musharraf was appointed head of the armed forces, only to be fired in October 1999 when he was traveling abroad. The armed forces, never keen to obey even the most benign orders of elected civilian leaders, refused to carry out the decision. In scenes more fitting for a cheap thriller one might buy at an airport bookshop, the Army took control of Karachi’s airport, helped land Musharraf’s plane as he returned from his foreign trip, and conducted a coup. Musharraf then appointed himself the head of yet another military government.
As president, his straight-talking, unvarnished style was welcomed by Pakistanis unaccustomed to that kind of candor from a public official. For Pakistan’s rising urban middle class, he became a patron of music, television, film, and fashion. But for the rest of the country—the vast majority—Musharraf’s rule was a time of violence, diminished control over their own lives, and the absence of democratic representation.
Musharraf’s most memorable reform effort was Local Government Ordinance 2001, which aimed to transfer many local services from higher tiers of government to more local authorities. The idea was to empower ordinary citizens and make the authorities overseeing municipal water, sanitation, and education services more responsive to the people using those services. For the first few years after it was enacted, the ordinance and the new systems it created seemed to be improving those services across the country.
As with so many of Musharraf’s promises, though, there was no follow-through. Musharraf never delivered the necessary fiscal and political freedoms that would have ensured his reforms would last. He deliberately kept the four provincial governments weak and fiscally dependent on the largesse of the federal government. This ended up embittering ethnic minorities and deepening the suspicions of democrats already wary of Musharraf’s intentions. Both at the provincial and the national levels, Pakistan’s democratic institutions remained weak. And in 2006, Musharraf helped dismantle some of his own reforms to prolong his time as president—conceding changes to Local Government Ordinance 2001 as part of a deal with “elected” civilians who were actually installed to do his bidding. Despite Musharraf’s many protestations to the contrary, he never really favored democracy.
Nor did he respect the rights and multiple identities of his diverse citizenry. In Balochistan—the sparsely populated, poor, yet mineral-rich province that is now the site of some of China’s key investments in Pakistan’s infrastructure—Musharraf laid the foundation for a raging separatist insurgency. He responded to long-standing Baloch demands for greater access to the natural resources extracted from the province with contemptuous rejections. Key political leaders who articulated those demands were branded as traitors.
The tipping point probably came in 2006 when Nawab Akbar Bugti, a onetime government minister in Islamabad and former chief minister of the province, was killed in a standoff with the military. Bugti’s family accused Musharraf of having him assassinated. A 2016 court judgment cleared Musharraf of the charge, but many continue to believe that he was responsible. Even those with a tendency to align themselves with Musharraf blamed him for plunging the entire province into violence.
Meanwhile, the cost of fighting al Qaeda was not borne by Musharraf but by the thousands of Pakistani citizens, police officers, spies, and soldiers who were killed in reprisal attacks that metastasized into a full-blown terrorist insurgency in the north and northwest of the country. Bush understandably praised Musharraf for helping to fight his war, calling Musharraf “a leader with great courage and vision.” But for Pakistan, the fruits of that relationship were ruinous. From the home district of Malala Yousafzai in Pakistan’s northwest to the tribal areas bordering Afghanistan, full-scale military operations displaced and dislocated millions of Pakistani citizens throughout the decade that followed the Musharraf era—operations that were a response to restive and violent conditions that Musharraf, in trying to please Washington, had fostered or created.
Musharraf and his many supporters often cite the absence of better options—suggesting it would have been impossible to support U.S. counterterrorism campaigns in the aftermath of the 9/11 attacks without fueling a terrorist insurgency. And, yes, the challenge of being squeezed between U.S. pressure to conduct a war on terrorism and the domestic complexities of managing that war without igniting internal conflicts and tensions would have been difficult for any leader. Still, Pakistan never had a chance to debate or contemplate how to find a proper balance—Musharraf decided for the whole country.
In the nearly decade and a half between his resignation in 2008 and his death, Musharraf showed little capacity for reflection or remorse. When he did show glimpses of regret, they were transparently self-serving. At the launch of his own political party in October 2010, when questioned about what he did to counter corruption during his time in power, he apologized for having made a 2007 deal to enable former Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto to return to Pakistan. (She was assassinated on his watch as president.) Later that year, during an interview with Indian television, when confronted about how he left Pakistan in political and financial ruin, he expressed regret at having given up the position of chief of army staff too soon. In an interview in December 2013, as momentum was building for a Pakistani Supreme Court case in which he would have been tried for treason, Musharraf said, “Whatever I did, I did it for the country. It could be wrong, but there was no bad intention in it. Even then, if someone thinks that I have committed a mistake, I seek forgiveness for it.”
Those who wonder about the sincerity of his halting contrition need look no further than his actions toward the end of 2007. Growing increasingly weary of the upsurge in political, legal, and social challenges to his rule that had arisen throughout 2006, he tried to fire the country’s chief justice in March 2007. That decision backfired in July of that year when a 13-judge panel from the Supreme Court reinstated the justice. In response, Musharraf arranged to be elected as president by parliament in October. When that gambit backfired—with almost all opposition members either abstaining or resigning from parliament to protest the behavior of the Musharraf regime—he suspended the constitution altogether, declaring a state of emergency. In keeping with the global post-9/11 tradition of using terrorism as a basis for violating laws, he justified the emergency declaration on the basis of the “visible ascendancy in the activities of extremists and incidents of terrorist attacks.”
It’s not only his actions as the leader of the country after 1999 that will leave his legacy in tatters. Perhaps the most egregious violation of his oath as a soldier was not the coup he conducted in 1999, or the sham election he held in 2002, or the judges he tried to fire in 2007, or the emergency he declared in 2007. Rather, it was the Kargil War of 1999—a military entanglement that his supporters laud for its tactical robustness, yet whose strategic cost Pakistan continues to bear to this day.
Contingency plans for taking vulnerable parts of Indian-occupied Kashmir had been part of Pakistani military thinking for decades. In the late 1990s, several senior officers had sought to implement those plans, yet calmer heads had always prevailed, including the army chief who preceded Musharraf, a thoughtful and widely respected general named Jehangir Karamat. But in 1998, then-Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif fell out with Karamat and fast-tracked Musharraf’s appointment as chief of army staff. Among Musharraf’s first acts as military boss was to greenlight the covert infiltration that sparked the Kargil War.
The war was supposed to liberate Kashmir from Indian occupation. Instead, hundreds of Pakistani soldiers were killed, and after an initial shock, India was able to push back and regain the territory it had held. Back home, Pakistan’s elected civilian leadership claimed to have been kept in the dark about the Kargil misadventure—and the resulting bitterness is what eventually led to Musharraf’s coup. At one point, U.S. President Bill Clinton was pulled into the crossfire, both between Musharraf and Sharif and between India and Pakistan. Bitterness and disappointment from Kargil in both Washington (for the dangerous escalation the intervention represented) and Pakistan (for the United States having refused to support Pakistan) led to a strategic falling-out between the United States and Pakistan. Those tensions never fully disappeared.
Recent political upheaval in Pakistan is essentially part of the toxicity that began with the disastrous Kargil misadventure. When disagreements between Pakistani politicians and generals boil over, the United States is the baton they use to beat each other up with. Unpredictability in Pakistani governance now seems like a given—but it wasn’t always this way. Gen. Pervez Musharraf was the gardener who planted and harvested those seeds.
To his credit perhaps, despite all his failings, Musharraf remained to the end a relatable figure for the vast middle class of Pakistan. Unlike so many other Pakistani leaders, including military dictators, his family seemed immune to the voracious appetite for money and power such people tend to have. Neither of his two children is a public figure, and neither stands accused of having benefited from the long period when their father enjoyed unlimited power in Pakistan. Previous dictators have left behind multiple generations of very wealthy, politically active offspring.
Musharraf, who had been living in self-imposed exile in Dubai since 2016, leaves behind an empty home in Islamabad and a few apartments in the Middle East and London. All empty. Just like his contrition, and his promises of uniting and reforming the nation.

Mortgage Payments – Most buyers require a mortgage loan. Total costs depend on down payment, repayment period etc. Interest rates are competitive.
Taxes - No personal income taxes apply in Dubai but certain sales, tourism and municipality taxes may apply. Check with developers.
When budgeting, work factors like exchange rates, family needs etc. into your planning. Getting pre-approvals from banks can also help estimate costs.
Paying for Your Luxury Villa
You have multiple options when it comes to making payments for luxury villas in Dubai, including:
Cash Buyout - Pay the full cost of the property upfront without needing mortgage financing. This can earn discounts from developers up to 10%.
Mortgage Finance - Banks like ENBD, ADCB and Mashreq offer competitive mortgage loans for non-UAE nationals, usually up to 75% of value. Terms depend on nationality.
Off-plan Installments - Developers provide easy payment plan options spread over construction for villas under construction, with only 5% down initially. This gets you pre-launch prices too. Handover dates tend to be reliable.
Compare all programs to find one that best suits your financial bandwidth and pays in a currency that limits FOREX risks.
Conclusion
This detailed guide has covered all the key factors you need to consider when preparing to buy a luxury villa in Dubai that perfectly caters to your lifestyle needs and budget planning. With the world-class amenities and infrastructure in Dubai, owning a luxury villa here positions you to experience the pinnacle of elite living coupled with smart property investments for the future.

This is how blue finance works in Latin America and the Caribbean
Tumblr media
Climate change is hitting the region's seas. Blue finance can be a shield to protect them
A combination of climate change, overfishing and pollution is bringing the planet's vibrant oceans to the brink of collapse. The pain inflicted to the oceans by climate change is especially intense in Latin America and the Caribbean, where many economies and the livelihoods of millions of people are closely linked to the sea.
The sea represents 60% of the territory in 22 countries in the region, with a coast that extends for more than 70,000 km. In Latin America alone, 25% of the population lives in coastal areas, while almost 100% do so in the Caribbean.
The looming crisis facing the oceans will be a key point in the COP28 discussions taking place at the end of November in Dubai, where world leaders will seek to deploy an arsenal of initiatives to confront the challenge of climate change. One of the pillars of these efforts will likely be a nascent set of financial tools, including blue bonds and blue loans[1], which have already taken their first steps in the region and contain enormous potential in the battle against climate change.
These instruments raise funds for water-related projects, such as preserving access to clean water, wastewater treatment plants, plastic recycling, restoration of marine ecosystems, sustainable shipping, eco-tourism and offshore renewable energy.
Similarly, investments in sustainable salmon production in Chile represent an investment potential of $5 billion and could help increase sector income, boost exports and support local jobs, while preserving natural resources.
Some countries are already paving the way for the development of blue finance in the region. This is, for example, Ecuador, where Banco Internacional became the first bank in the region in 2022 to issue blue bonds. The issue, which had the support of the International Finance Corporation (IFC)[2], could be a benchmark in a country that is home to the largest small-scale artisanal fishing fleet in the southeastern Pacific Ocean and which also has enormous growth potential in the blue economy. The Ecuadorian fishing sector contributes around 1.5% of the country's Gross Domestic Product and 13% of its non-oil exports, and employs 108,000 people.
Since 2020, IFC has provided more than $1.3 billion in loans and blue bonds to financial institutions and private sector companies. In Colombia, one of the five most diverse nations on the planet, BBVA[3] became, with the support of IFC, the first financial entity in the country to issue blue bonds. This is a first tranche for 50 million dollars destined to finance projects for the construction of water and sewage treatment plants, preservation of the oceans and protection of lakes, moors and mangroves.
In the middle of last year, IFC granted a loan of $150 million to the Companhia de Saneamento Básico do Estado de São Paulo (SABESP)[4], one of the largest water and sanitation companies in the world. The impact of the loan is huge, as it will be used to finance investments focused on improving water quality and expanding wastewater collection and treatment in the poorest neighbourhoods of São Paulo.
Despite these cases, there are still many tasks to be accomplished for blue finance to take root in the region. It is key, for example, to develop duly defined taxonomies, certifications and standards so that blue finance becomes tools that meet its impact expectations. The Blue Finance Guidelines[5], a document developed by IFC that identifies eligibility criteria for blue projects, seeks precisely to translate the general principles of blue economy financing into guidelines for blue bond issuances and blue loans.
This story is not only an opportunity for growth, but also a commitment to the preservation of our environment. Investing in the blue economy, supported by strong financial institutions and regulations, can make a difference in preserving our oceans and fighting climate change.
According to an estimate by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD), the blue economy represents about 2.5% of global GDP. Likewise, its scope can provide a substantial change in problems such as the scarcity of fresh water or the use of renewable energy, thereby promoting a better quality of life for people who live linked to the sea.
Today, the blue economy has already confirmed its potential by generating palpable benefits in some cases such as the decarbonization of maritime transport in Brazil, support for sustainable tourism in Chile, the protection of marine biodiversity in the Eastern Caribbean and the Galapagos Islands, the restoration coralline in Belize and the preservation of species in the Mar del Plata in Argentina, to mention a few.
There is no sustainable horizon without private innovation
Efforts to combat climate change will not succeed without massive increases in private capital to developing economies, which account for more than 60% of global decarbonization investment needs. According to its annual report[6] (Building a Better Future), IFC committed a record global amount of $14.4 billion in climate finance by 2023. Starting July 1, 2023, 85% of all new IFC investments will be consistent with the goals of the Paris Agreement, increasing to 100% on July 1, 2025, meaning it will include climate mitigation and adaptation. climate change in all investment decisions. Mere financing is not enough: innovation also plays a fundamental role, especially in protecting the planet's carbon reserves. In the field of blue finance, for example, IFC published a study[7] this year that detects opportunities to finance projects that contribute to safeguarding the carbon stored in the world's coastal ecosystems. In Latin America and the Caribbean, the safeguarding of so-called blue carbon - that which is stored in the form of biomass and sediments in coastal ecosystems - will be one of the main areas to explore in terms of blue finance in the years to come.

Our work accelerates an inclusive transition by catalysing green growth, supporting private companies to decarbonize and manage risks, and supports societies adapting to a warmer planet. As a result, we help create markets and jobs so that countries continue to reduce poverty and improve living standards while increasing resilience and shifting to a low-carbon world.  https://www.ifc.org/en/insights-reports/annual-report/download

Islamabad — In the tiny, remote village of Bandli, high up in the mountains of Pakistan-administered Kashmir, local officials were circulating a grim list on Friday. On it are the names of 11 missing men. They are believed to be among the hundreds of people who were crammed by human traffickers onto an old fishing boat that sank off the coast of Greece last week, thousands of miles from their homes, as they tried to make it to European soil.
It was one of the deadliest maritime disasters in Europe in decades.
The men from Bandli were among an estimated 400 to 750 people from Pakistan, Egypt, Syria and other countries packed onto the fishing boat when it sank about 50 miles from the southern Greek town of Pylos on June 14.
Pakistan has grappled for months with a complete economic meltdown, spurring more and more people to risk their lives to reach Europe in search of a better future. 
CBS News' partner network BBC sent a team from its World Service, Urdu channel to Bundli, where they met Raja Anwar standing on the roof of his house, staring vacantly at the gate to his property.
His 38-year-old son Abdul sent Anwar a message to say he was getting on the boat in Libya just before it set off on June 14.
"We had to take a huge loan of 22 lakhs ($8,000) from our extended family to pay for his journey," Anwar told the BBC.
He said his village had lost a young generation of men, including his son and four nephews, the youngest of whom, Owais Tariq, was only 19. All the men but one were married with young children, he said.
The boat the would-be migrants were on had a capacity for far fewer people, and when it became clear that it was capsizing, the captain reportedly abandoned ship and left them to their fate. Of the hundreds who were on the boat – which one group said may have included many children – only 104 were rescued. Greek authorities have recovered 82 bodies so far. 
Pakistan appears to have had the highest number of nationals on board the doomed vessel. The country's Interior Minister, Rana Sanaullah, told parliament Friday that at least 350 Pakistanis were on the boat, adding that a total of 281 families had contacted the government to seek help and information.
Another 193 Pakistani families have already been DNA-tested to match with the remains of victims found, or to keep on file with so many people still officially missing after the shipwreck. 
Pakistan has arrested several alleged human traffickers and their agents, who have told authorities their ringleader was based in Libya, from which the boat set sail on the North African coast.
These human smugglers allegedly charged around $8,000 per person to illegally take the Pakistani nationals to Europe across the Mediterranean from Libya – a dangerous sea crossing that has become busier as European nations have worked to seal their land borders. The migrants had been flown legally to Dubai, Egypt and directly to Libya, authorities said.
An official inquiry was underway to identify and arrest any others involved in the human smuggling, Sanaullah said, adding that Pakistan's government was also working to recommend amendments to laws to increase the likelihood of convictions in such cases.
The interior minister said not a single human trafficker had been convicted in Pakistan in more than five years, adding that it was mostly due to victims' families agreeing to pardons in exchange for money.
Given Pakistan's deep economic woes, it's unclear what effect any efforts to tackle irregular migration could have in the country.
Pakistanis are grappling with inflation at an almost unfathomable rate of 38%. A rapidly depreciating currency and external deficit led the government to adopt drastic measures over the past year to avoid a national default.
But those measures dealt a huge blow to domestic growth and jobs. The industrial sector, Pakistan's economic engine, has contracted almost 3% in the current financial year according to provisional data. That has put a huge strain on a nation with a population of over 230 million and a generally young population that's pushing 2 million new people into to the labor force every year.
Official unemployment data have not been published in two years. But Hafeez Pasha, a former finance minister and economist renowned for his work on Pakistan's labor issues, has put the unemployment rate at a record "11-12%, conservatively."
Behind only Egypt and Bangladesh, Pakistan has the most nationals currently being registered as arriving asylum seekers in Italy, the European border agency Frontex told the Reuters news agency.
Of the arrivals this year through May, a record 4,971 Pakistanis tried to make the central Mediterranean crossing in a single year, according to Frontex data recorded since 2009. 
Legal migration opportunities are limited, and that stark figure represents those who have actually made it to Italy.
Many, like the hundreds of people now lost from the boat off southern Greece, see no option but to try to make arrangements through agents who often present illegal routes as a quicker, cheaper, or even the only way to reach Europe, according to the Migrant Resource Centre, a EU-funded organization that provides information and counseling to migrants. 
In the village of Bandli, 11 desperate families were left clinging to hope Friday that they might still get word their loved ones were among the lucky ones rescued.
That hope was fading fast, and pain was already etched on the faces of the mothers, fathers and other relatives wondering if their loved ones were among the 12 Pakistani nationals who Greek officials say were pulled out of the water alive.

A Jump in the Mortgage Rates
Tumblr media

5 big questions in the real estate 2023 market
Tumblr media
Photo by Oleksandr Pidvalnyi from Pexels
How will the ratio of work to home change?
For many workers, hybrid work is now an absolute necessity, therefore businesses must embrace it and promote productive work that can be done from either the office or at home.
Younger generations and hyper-hybrid workers, who work more than three days a week remotely, tend to be the least committed and have depart their careers or plan to do so at a far greater rate, according to recent JLL data.
What will happen to the economy and investments next?
An unstable investment environment has been created by record-high inflation and rising interest rates, and as the year progresses, there is a chance that the economy may continue to deteriorate.
However, it's important to note that any slowdown will probably be brief and shallow. There is growing evidence that inflation in the United States and possibly in all of Europe has peaked. It is possible that reference rates won't climb as high or quickly as previously anticipated because of ebbing inflation, which has also moderated expectations for central bank rate tightening.
Are businesses going to decarbonize their real estate?
Climate-related projects and goals cannot be furthered by talk alone. The message was clearly heard at COP27, as statistics from the UN showed that emissions from the built environment were at an all-time high.
Key actors will be expecting action and a systematic shift from the real estate sector this year, from shareholders to customers. However, creating a clear action plan and gathering and analysing data proved to be challenges for many businesses.
How should the innovative technology sector evolve?
When the pandemic was at its worst, the tech sector grew tremendously. However, in 2022 there were indications of slowing, and by the fourth quarter, layoffs had taken precedence over rapid expansion in the news.
But the news isn't all bad. According to JLL's Tech Office Trends Outlook, the startup situation in many U.S. markets is promising.
Tech clusters, like those in San Francisco, New England, and New York, are growing, according to industry analysts. Investors are betting on early-stage startups and focused on exits in four to five years rather than the following year as prices decline.
Can real estate benefit the community in any way?
ESG's influence on the real estate sector is expanding beyond sustainability. There is a rising understanding that the built environment can significantly influence society through initiatives to renovate public places, create necessary infrastructure like care facilities, or support environmental aims through green buildings.
Smart cities like Dubai, which has leveraged technological innovation to influence travel, tourism, energy, housing, and security, and Singapore, which employs street lampposts to monitor changes connected to environmental conditions, both provide some effective instances.

Pervez Musharraf Dragged His Country Down
The charismatic Pakistani general aimed to be a great national leader but failed by shredding the constitution and recklessly doing Washington’s bidding.
— February 5, 2023 | By Mosharraf Zaidi, a Senior Partner at Tabadlab, an Advisory Services Firm | Foreign Policy
Tumblr media
Outgoing President Pervez Musharraf salutes as he leaves the presidential house in Islamabad, Pakistan, on Aug. 18, 2008. Emilio Morenatti/AP
Gen. Pervez Musharraf, Pakistan’s Former President, died at age 79 in Dubai on Sunday after a long illness, according to a statement by the Pakistani military.
Musharraf’s military colleagues in Pakistan often praised him as daring, forthright, and brave—yet the primary legacy he leaves behind will feature none of those adjectives. Pakistan’s 10th president since independence will be remembered instead as a divisive, constitution-shredding military dictator who set Pakistan back decades.
When Musharraf took charge after a military coup in October 1999, Pakistan was not dissimilar from its neighbors China and India—countries with large populations but little economic vitality at the time. China and India, however, soon enjoyed massive growth as their economies opened up to the world and investments poured in and exports flowed out. Pakistan grew too—but not because of any changes in how Musharraf managed the economy. Instead, infusions of cash from the United States to help finance the so-called global war on terrorism bolstered solid (though unspectacular) macroeconomic numbers.
By the end of Musharraf’s tenure in 2008, Pakistan was a regional economic laggard. The country took yet another massive loan from the International Monetary Fund just weeks after he resigned. More importantly, however, insurgencies and violent political crises had engulfed three of Pakistan’s four provinces.
Democratic-minded Pakistanis often blame the United States for bolstering the country’s military dictators, and for good reason. Throughout the three extended periods when generals have run Pakistan—the 1960s, the 1980s, and the 2000s—they did so with vital political and economic support from Washington. That is what helped shore up every military dictator Pakistan has ever had to endure.
But Musharraf’s assistance to U.S. President George W. Bush’s war efforts reached a whole new level and made him something of a celebrity in the United States. In 2006, he became the first foreign head of state to appear on The Daily Show With Jon Stewart. It was a somewhat awkward appearance. Asked how he balanced the wishes of the United States and Pakistan, Musharraf said, “I’ve had to learn the art of tightrope-walking many times, and I think I’ve become quite an expert of that.”
He got a few laughs. But there was nothing funny about the mess he was trying to hide back home as he sought to further secure his grip on power by marketing himself as the sole Pakistani counterterrorism partner whom Americans could count on.

Born in 1943 to a middle-class household that migrated to Pakistan from India just four years later, Musharraf benefited from being in a well-educated and socially prominent family. His father worked for the government and eventually became a diplomat posted to Ankara, Turkey, where Musharraf spent seven years learning Turkish and growing fond of Mustafa Kemal Ataturk, the founding father of a sovereign and secular Turkey. At age 18, Musharraf joined the Pakistan Military Academy, from which he graduated with a bachelor’s degree in 1964.
He saw his first combat in Pakistan’s 1965 war with India, and he was also involved in combat operations in the 1971 war that led to the breakup of Pakistan (and the founding of Bangladesh). Musharraf came to be seen as a star officer and became a member of the elite Special Services Group of commandos in the Pakistan Army. He later taught at the Command and Staff College in Quetta and in the War Wing of the National Defence College.
In 1998, Musharraf was appointed head of the armed forces, only to be fired in October 1999 when he was traveling abroad. The armed forces, never keen to obey even the most benign orders of elected civilian leaders, refused to carry out the decision. In scenes more fitting for a cheap thriller one might buy at an airport bookshop, the Army took control of Karachi’s airport, helped land Musharraf’s plane as he returned from his foreign trip, and conducted a coup. Musharraf then appointed himself the head of yet another military government.
As president, his straight-talking, unvarnished style was welcomed by Pakistanis unaccustomed to that kind of candor from a public official. For Pakistan’s rising urban middle class, he became a patron of music, television, film, and fashion. But for the rest of the country—the vast majority—Musharraf’s rule was a time of violence, diminished control over their own lives, and the absence of democratic representation.
Musharraf’s most memorable reform effort was Local Government Ordinance 2001, which aimed to transfer many local services from higher tiers of government to more local authorities. The idea was to empower ordinary citizens and make the authorities overseeing municipal water, sanitation, and education services more responsive to the people using those services. For the first few years after it was enacted, the ordinance and the new systems it created seemed to be improving those services across the country.

As with so many of Musharraf’s promises, though, there was no follow-through. Musharraf never delivered the necessary fiscal and political freedoms that would have ensured his reforms would last. He deliberately kept the four provincial governments weak and fiscally dependent on the largesse of the federal government. This ended up embittering ethnic minorities and deepening the suspicions of democrats already wary of Musharraf’s intentions. Both at the provincial and the national levels, Pakistan’s democratic institutions remained weak. And in 2006, Musharraf helped dismantle some of his own reforms to prolong his time as president—conceding changes to Local Government Ordinance 2001 as part of a deal with “elected” civilians who were actually installed to do his bidding. Despite Musharraf’s many protestations to the contrary, he never really favored democracy.
Nor did he respect the rights and multiple identities of his diverse citizenry. In Balochistan—the sparsely populated, poor, yet mineral-rich province that is now the site of some of China’s key investments in Pakistan’s infrastructure—Musharraf laid the foundation for a raging separatist insurgency. He responded to long-standing Baloch demands for greater access to the natural resources extracted from the province with contemptuous rejections. Key political leaders who articulated those demands were branded as traitors.
The tipping point probably came in 2006 when Nawab Akbar Bugti, a onetime government minister in Islamabad and former chief minister of the province, was killed in a standoff with the military. Bugti’s family accused Musharraf of having him assassinated. A 2016 court judgment cleared Musharraf of the charge, but many continue to believe that he was responsible. Even those with a tendency to align themselves with Musharraf blamed him for plunging the entire province into violence.
Meanwhile, the cost of fighting al Qaeda was not borne by Musharraf but by the thousands of Pakistani citizens, police officers, spies, and soldiers who were killed in reprisal attacks that metastasized into a full-blown terrorist insurgency in the north and northwest of the country. Bush understandably praised Musharraf for helping to fight his war, calling Musharraf “a leader with great courage and vision.” But for Pakistan, the fruits of that relationship were ruinous. From the home district of Malala Yousafzai in Pakistan’s northwest to the tribal areas bordering Afghanistan, full-scale military operations displaced and dislocated millions of Pakistani citizens throughout the decade that followed the Musharraf era—operations that were a response to restive and violent conditions that Musharraf, in trying to please Washington, had fostered or created.

Musharraf and his many supporters often cite the absence of better options—suggesting it would have been impossible to support U.S. counterterrorism campaigns in the aftermath of the 9/11 attacks without fueling a terrorist insurgency. And, yes, the challenge of being squeezed between U.S. pressure to conduct a war on terrorism and the domestic complexities of managing that war without igniting internal conflicts and tensions would have been difficult for any leader. Still, Pakistan never had a chance to debate or contemplate how to find a proper balance—Musharraf decided for the whole country.
In the nearly decade and a half between his resignation in 2008 and his death, Musharraf showed little capacity for reflection or remorse. When he did show glimpses of regret, they were transparently self-serving. At the launch of his own political party in October 2010, when questioned about what he did to counter corruption during his time in power, he apologized for having made a 2007 deal to enable former Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto to return to Pakistan. (She was assassinated on his watch as president.) Later that year, during an interview with Indian television, when confronted about how he left Pakistan in political and financial ruin, he expressed regret at having given up the position of chief of army staff too soon. In an interview in December 2013, as momentum was building for a Pakistani Supreme Court case in which he would have been tried for treason, Musharraf said, “Whatever I did, I did it for the country. It could be wrong, but there was no bad intention in it. Even then, if someone thinks that I have committed a mistake, I seek forgiveness for it.”
Those who wonder about the sincerity of his halting contrition need look no further than his actions toward the end of 2007. Growing increasingly weary of the upsurge in political, legal, and social challenges to his rule that had arisen throughout 2006, he tried to fire the country’s chief justice in March 2007. That decision backfired in July of that year when a 13-judge panel from the Supreme Court reinstated the justice. In response, Musharraf arranged to be elected as president by parliament in October. When that gambit backfired—with almost all opposition members either abstaining or resigning from parliament to protest the behavior of the Musharraf regime—he suspended the constitution altogether, declaring a state of emergency. In keeping with the global post-9/11 tradition of using terrorism as a basis for violating laws, he justified the emergency declaration on the basis of the “visible ascendancy in the activities of extremists and incidents of terrorist attacks.”
It’s not only his actions as the leader of the country after 1999 that will leave his legacy in tatters. Perhaps the most egregious violation of his oath as a soldier was not the coup he conducted in 1999, or the sham election he held in 2002, or the judges he tried to fire in 2007, or the emergency he declared in 2007. Rather, it was the Kargil War of 1999—a military entanglement that his supporters laud for its tactical robustness, yet whose strategic cost Pakistan continues to bear to this day.
Contingency plans for taking vulnerable parts of Indian-occupied Kashmir had been part of Pakistani military thinking for decades. In the late 1990s, several senior officers had sought to implement those plans, yet calmer heads had always prevailed, including the army chief who preceded Musharraf, a thoughtful and widely respected general named Jehangir Karamat. But in 1998, then-Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif fell out with Karamat and fast-tracked Musharraf’s appointment as chief of army staff. Among Musharraf’s first acts as military boss was to greenlight the covert infiltration that sparked the Kargil War.

The war was supposed to liberate Kashmir from Indian occupation. Instead, hundreds of Pakistani soldiers were killed, and after an initial shock, India was able to push back and regain the territory it had held. Back home, Pakistan’s elected civilian leadership claimed to have been kept in the dark about the Kargil misadventure—and the resulting bitterness is what eventually led to Musharraf’s coup. At one point, U.S. President Bill Clinton was pulled into the crossfire, both between Musharraf and Sharif and between India and Pakistan. Bitterness and disappointment from Kargil in both Washington (for the dangerous escalation the intervention represented) and Pakistan (for the United States having refused to support Pakistan) led to a strategic falling-out between the United States and Pakistan. Those tensions never fully disappeared.
Recent political upheaval in Pakistan is essentially part of the toxicity that began with the disastrous Kargil misadventure. When disagreements between Pakistani politicians and generals boil over, the United States is the baton they use to beat each other up with. Unpredictability in Pakistani governance now seems like a given—but it wasn’t always this way. Gen. Pervez Musharraf was the gardener who planted and harvested those seeds.
To his credit perhaps, despite all his failings, Musharraf remained to the end a relatable figure for the vast middle class of Pakistan. Unlike so many other Pakistani leaders, including military dictators, his family seemed immune to the voracious appetite for money and power such people tend to have. Neither of his two children is a public figure, and neither stands accused of having benefited from the long period when their father enjoyed unlimited power in Pakistan. Previous dictators have left behind multiple generations of very wealthy, politically active offspring.
Musharraf, who had been living in self-imposed exile in Dubai since 2016, leaves behind an empty home in Islamabad and a few apartments in the Middle East and London. All empty. Just like his contrition, and his promises of uniting and reforming the nation.
