YSL, Daylight Saving and Banana Republic.

YSL
The Man who made women wear pants just left this planet. YSL, a pathbreaker, inspired by Piccaso, Van Gogh, Dior. His contribuiton was more than what he did for Fashion or Style. He inspired women to have confidence, not just by dressing but carrying atttiude. Women break quite a few moulds, the day they adorn Pants.

PAKISTAN
Indian Press has not covered this one, atelast not justifiable enough. Pakistan has taken cue from thier/ our colonial rulers and have started using daylight savings, by taking their clocks one hour early in summers. For last few days, people have been missing their Namaz, school, factory and offices. General Saheb will not be affected as he is in offfice 24 x 7.
Personally I dont think it will work. England is a different country, countrymen are aware and govt. takes pain to include people in decisions like this. One does not impose things like this and expect people to follow.
I expect chaos to prevail soon.

NEPAL
King has been asked to vacate his palace. Palace is now going to be a museum. But then the king was the most important artefact and he should surely be on display.

Pants were worn much before YSL...the only thing that may be credited to him is to create an artificially inflated industry of glorified darji's.....


Pakistan has experimented with DST before....so people there are aware of the implications. That said, the "South Asian" is a dumb animal anyway, so as you say confusion and chaos will prevail.

Nepal....perhaps the artefact's in the museum will justifiably be decades if not centuries older than the current occupant....
