Moving out of Pakistan | Junaid Akram
Вставка
- Опубліковано 4 тра 2023
- In recent years, there has been a notable increase in the number of people choosing to leave Pakistan and migrate to other countries. This phenomenon can be attributed to a variety of factors that collectively contribute to the desire for a different life elsewhere.
One significant reason behind this trend is the pursuit of better economic opportunities. Many individuals leave Pakistan in search of improved job prospects, higher wages, and increased career growth. Economic challenges such as unemployment and underemployment, coupled with limited avenues for professional development, prompt people to seek greener pastures abroad where they hope to secure a more prosperous future for themselves and their families.

I immigrated to New Zealand 21 years ago and never looked back. My kids are studying in top class universities and to be honest, we have strong Muslim communities who look after each other. By the way, I have more Indian brothers as friends than Pakistanis 😁
New Zealand seems so boring.
Cut from rest of world
Well done.
your kids are lucky to have you.

real nice
my father also had the opertunity to move to canada back in 98 but instead choose to stay here with his sisters and now mashallah mashallah all 3 of us brothers are rotting here
I moved to Finland in 2013 and have worked 12+ hours a way apart from university hours, of which six hours was delivering newspapers outside when (once) was -35 degrees Celsius. Now, I am working as a scientist and have gotten what is one of the strongest passports in the world. This video took me a decade back and everything in the video was spot on, voice of my heart. Thanks Junaid.
Mashaallah, wish more success to you brother!!
Any suggestions for the students who are planning to move Finland!? Please!
@@imagine583 I would love to guide and help, but yours is an open ended question, and a specific query on any relevant matter will help me with what to suggest! Can you ask a specific query? Overall, it is a good place to study, but the benefits of staying in Finland transcend merely academic reasons. It is a social welfare state, which means that the government will take care of you, but on the flip side, also means that you are responsible for a lot of contribution to the social pool of money through your taxes if you are in the working class. I pay >35% of my income in taxes and other contributions, which is also shared with other EU states and Nordics. It is highly possible to find good opportunities after studies, especially in technology fields.
😅 can you help me

I moved to Germany in 2013 to pursue my education, and after seven years, I obtained my German passport. In 2019, I was diagnosed with blood cancer, and if I had been in Pakistan, it would have devastated my family financially. Fortunately, my insurance in Germany covered the cost of treatment, and I also received a significant portion of my salary from the insurance during the year I was unable to work. This meant that even while undergoing chemotherapy, I was able to support my family back home.
Although my university job contract recently ended after five years, I am not worried about not having enough to eat because I will be paid for an entire year. I am confident that I will find a new job soon.
In comparison, the situation in the Middle East is quite dire. Non-citizens do not enjoy many rights, and health insurance is often only available to those who work in certain well-paying jobs. There is little to no social safety net to fall back on in case of hardship.
Now with the current situation in Pakistan, I am really happy that I got out. I think every family must have at least one person abroad in Pakistan as it is getting worse by the day. Our stupid Army is destroying the nation and if you are an average-income family, you need someone who can bear the brunt of inflation.
All things you said are right but army is not destroying . The patwari government is destroying pakistan . The government wants to create civil war between army and people. They are eating money . As a 13 years old boy I can confidently say that I want to leave this country .InshaAllah
Brother may you get well soon Ameen!
Rightly Said brother, beautifully written and I agree with you 100%
stay strong brother
May Allah bless you

After finishing my bachelor's degree, my father's friend told me to come to Saudi, and his son would help me settle down. I refused at that time, prepared for IELTS, got the required score, and move to the UK for a master's. Finished my master's, went to Australia on a temporary visa, and prepared for permanent residency while on a temporary visa. Got my PR and citizenship later. A couple of months ago got contacted by the same person, asking me about the pathways to move to Australia because he lost his job in Saudi.
So a little advice to those who are in GCC countries. Please use these countries as a platform and apply for the USA, the UK, Canada, Australia or Europe. Being a first-generation immigrant, you have to face a lot of hardships and have to swallow a very bitter pill. but trust me, in the end, it's all worth it.
yeah obvisously bro.
You should be kind to the same person; he was helping you when you needed it - receprocate
Yup bro I completed my Graduation in 2022 now I am going to UAE for a temporary Stay from there I'll move to Germany InShAllah 😇
If someone is asking you for help be sure allah has choosen you for to help out his man so please do help him
@enggwahaj brother please tell on which visa you moved to Australia, I'm in the same boat I just finished my msc in uk
As a Pakistani immigrant living in Canada, I totally agree with Junaid; living and managing your expanses in places like Europe and the Americas is undoubtedly difficult, but with time, persistence, and hard work, it pays off. Pakistan is regressing daily due of the ruling elite's lack of regard for the nation or its citizens. Na umeedi haram he, but I don't see a light because we've been persuaded to believe for so long that the main issue is with the politicians and the wealthy, which isn't entirely the case. It is the Establishment and the DHA Land Mafia. All of these generals of the armed forces reside abroad, have settled their families there, and are sending their children to schools there.
The entire system has been poisoned and afflicted by these land mafias.
It is painful to witness our fellow Pakistanis going through difficult times while we, the regular people, are unable to help since everyone who speaks out against the system is put behind bars and accused of crimes.
I commend Junaid Akram for educating young people and common Pakistanis and using this platform for the greater good. May Allah reward you for your noble efforts.
That's a very long text but I am interested in your move to Canada, did you go there for studying?
Correct bro. Most Pakistanis still don't understand that the issue isn't Bajwa or Asim, the issue is structural. Pakistan is a military economy (from logistics to cement to cereal). A small elite will keep growing, rest will keep dying no matter whose government is in power. As an overseas Pakistani, my thoughts and prayers are with Pakistan. But I won't bet on it getting better.
HRK Bhai ab aap aa to gaye ho idhar "Kanedda" mein lekin meri aapse guzaarish hai ki kisi vajah se aapko agar Kafiron par ghussa aa gayaa to phat mat jaana yaar.
@@ShakuniMamaKaRishtedaar hahahahaha
O meray bhai, I am a ward of a military officer. I killed myself to get to the US in high school. My maternal aunt applied for our immigration (God bless her) and after that everything was on me including putting myself through Engineering school, getting my MBA and keeping myself employed in the technology sector. My Fauji father was never able to send me or my siblings any money for tuition and boarding on his army salary and that is the case of vast majority of fauj given less than 1% of the officer corps makes it to the rank of general. All he did was pay for my ticket to the US in the 1980s. I ran into some other Pakistanis who were also wards of retired officers and all of us worked odd jobs to get by on campus etc. There were always these rich Pakistanis but most were from the political or business elite.
The rest, I completely agree with Junaid. You have to burn the midnight oil to get yourself ahead in the west. Alhamdulilah I have never taken a penny of financial assistance from any local/state government. Allah’s blessings and own hard work opened the door. I just wish more Pakistanis opt for higher education instead of looking to make a quick buck by working odd jobs, driving cabs in the west. Higher education is the ticket to excel and get ahead. Make sure you pursue this education path with single minded devotion!
Positives of living in UK as compared to Pakistan: No Power cuts, No water tank, and good Gas pressure :-) Rule of law, NHS, free education. Supermarkets, fast internet, generally good transport system. Civilised driving, people queue, less pot holes in street, no open sewers, no mosquitos and less garbage and human waste on street. British summer, beaches and public parks. And most importantly people smile 🙂
Negative aspects of living in UK. RACISM and Islamophobia - the feeling thant you and your children do'nt belong here even if you have lived here all you life, paid your taxes and contributed to society. Racist attacks and demonisation of the Muslim community. The risk that your children and their decenedents wil leave the folds of Islam. A non islamic environment, alcohol, free mixing, sex outside marriage, nudity and pornography within public spaces including national TV. Non age appropriate sex education including LGBT issues. Eight months of poor weather and short days, you'll feel like a hamster hybernating. And worst of all the mindset that you and your children will be indoctrinated in that the individual in more important than society. The "me" mindset your rights over your responsibilities, combined with a the confused desi mindset you're not British or Pakistani !
Other things to bear in Mind: Nationality is'nt garunteed the UK government has created a "hostile environment" for migrants some of who have ended up living on the streets or have been deported before achieving nationality having spent thousands of pounds coming to UK, and being exploted in the black market in slave labour conditions.
You summoned it up perfectly .
To add to this the health service so called NHS you will have to be on a waiting list for a year for any major treatment even if you have contributed National insurance past 15 years .
Being young in London its great you can earn good money however there is no such thing called LIFE . There is no freedom or real happiness.
You will only experience that in Pakistan
You really exaggerated the racism. Not saying it doesn't exist but it's no where near as bad as you say it.
@@ReevanAmin-zu4bw Exaggeration ? I think the statistics speak for themself. More than doubling of hate crime in England and Wales from 2011 to 2020. 80,000 hate crimes a year, 1500 a week, 220 a day. 400% increas in Islamophobic hate crime in the same period. I'd suggest UL is better than other Western Countries at least they record hate crime statistics in UK. I'd suggest many other countries are worse.
Bro agar apko uk ka racism itna high lagta he to phir shayad apko Ireland or rest of Europe ka andaza he? Or US? Waha to racism k sath sath gun culture bhi. Still is racism k sath bhi UK is one of the safest country in the world for Muslims. Jitni azadi Muslims ko UK me he itni kahi or nahi

The values I learnt as an American have been priceless: Greeting strangers with a smile, appreciating everything and feeling gratitude for every kindness, and being a mentor and thought leader. My kids are smarter, kinder and wiser than I will ever be. And my wife and I have more material wealth than we deserve.
Full disclosure: I was born in Pakistan, lived and worked in Pakistan and Dubai and have been in America over 25 years.

We moved to Canada 20 years ago.. both my husband and I were in our mid to late 20s at the time and were doing extremely well in our careers.. but we moved for our son’s better future.. he was 4 at the time. The first few years were very tough as you said.. but we kept at it.. I started in contract jobs in my field but after about 3 years found my bearings here .. and grew my career over the years. Now, I am a VP in a global company and manage a team in 4 different countries. We are well settled here.. our son went to one of the top universities here and is now working MA. My advice is exactly what u said - try to come as early in life as u can.. and be prepared to work hard.. but also to do any kind of work .. i find people from our community are not willing to take lower level or contract type jobs as they feel it’s beneath them.. but in fact that is what builds your experience and character! Leave the rest to Allah and inshallah your hard work will be rewarded!
Stay out of white countries
If you are managing a team in different countries than plz help these young educated Pakistanis who wants to move , help them in getting jobs like INDIAN entrepreneurs doing
@@sumikh1763 no, they should learn how to keep their nation going properly
@@phylicia595 you don’t know what they are going through and nobody has right to stop anyone from moving to any country
Its also how people treat such jobs and how little you get paid , its wage slavery.
I am a CS graduate, I worked almost 3 years in a reputed multinational company in Pakistan as a designer. I left my job due to toxic/unprofessional culture. Now I am thinking about to move outside of Pakistan. But as a middle class surviving here is getting harder each day and if you don't have any job, it goes worst. Started collecting data and preparing my documents. Hopefully I'll get to somewhere that's good for me.
Inshallah bro
Good luck
Try Portugal, get a visit visa renewing it every 3 months till 1.5 years then u will get PR and after 5 years passport. You can earn there by driving Uber. However I hv heard these things so do ur research b4 taking any step.
I came to Canada in February last year from Hyderabad, Pakistan. Looking at the economic and political turmoil that unfolded later last year in Pakistan, I feel like it was the best decision of my life. Living here is definitely challenging but the hardship is only a matter of couple of years. An advice for whoever is reading this message and is looking to move abroad: go to a study abroad consultant if you want to but do your own research too. The process is actually not that hard, and all the information is available online; probably more than the consultants know themselves.
You went there as a student visa or job visa ? How hard is the process
are you doing your bachlor's degree there?
Wah hyderabadi
Can you please help in guidance

I went to the uk for my bachelors for 3 years. Those were the best 3 years of my life where I faced many challenges living by myself, earning, working and literally anything related to a being. I worked in hard labor and then landed a job at UKs best company to work for. I worked part time over there and then had to move back to Pakistan after completing my degree. I was in depression for 1.5 years because of the noise, traffic, frauds, people and literally everything, Alhamdulillah I’ve recovered now but I’m looking to move because this country is heading towards the worst crisis man can imagine. People here are rotten to the core, economy is bad, there’s nothing good that’s going on here. The world is light years ahead. It’s sad but it’s the truth.
I feel you bro!
I told my cousin awhile ago that "Even if somebody gives me guaranteed income (I believe I said 3-4lacs) for the rest of my life and the only conditions is that I live in Pakistan, I wouldn't take the offer. Unfortunately, Pakistan is no place to live for an honest/decent human being. I agree with you; the country is rotting, and it's been rotting for decades.
Had to come back due to a lay-off after getting my Tier2 Visa. The hardest goodbye ever!

I am in New Zealand and alhamdulillah all is good here. To be very honest, I was always an average student and I never thought that I will work for very big companies in New Zealand. It is because the competition is not very tough here as the population is only around 5 million and once you get a chance, then you can easily succeed in getting more chances.
Pakistani community is very talented alhamdulillah. What I have experienced is that Pakistan is a good place to come on holidays and then go back, earn money and repeat the cycle. Thanks
thankyou so much for saying this and the podcast...such an inspiration you're.
To all Pakistani students intending to continue their higher education. I live in one of the Nordic country. I would highly encourage students to move to Norway, Denmark and Sweden. The quality of life is great and education especially for MSc and PhD is still free. Nordic nation are desperately in need of highly qualified individuals.
Bro, i am working in poland. i have master degree in electronics engineering from pakistan. Can i get a good job in these countries. Can you please guide me
batosato! recently the Nordic parliament passed a law in which all non EU internationals will have to pay tuition fees, it's no longer free anymore. do you have any intel regarding that.?

Please tell me I'm a student of FSC PRE MEDICAL. If I want to continue my studies in the medical field which country is best for me.
After my graduation in 2021, I was lucky enough to move to the US as an immigrant. For a few months, I worked odd jobs, which was a little tough since it was an overnight job. But Alhamdollilah, in early 2022, I finally got the job I was looking for. I work as a software engineer in JPMorgan. Alhamdollilah, I have slowly seen progress in lifestyle. I have a car of my own, which prolly would have taken me 5 more years in Pakistan. So yes, it's true, hard work does pay off here and relatively quicker
Can you plz tell from where did you make your degree and what was degree I mean name
Alhamdulillah!
Pray for me. I am trying my best to move to U.A.E. I have some friends there. Inshallah things might work out.

I been living for 8 years back in UAE and currently studying in Pakistan. The experience I wanna share is that, it is very different for me to adjust here even though i was in my teen years when i left Pakistan but still.
Other than that My father was at service for 35 years back in Dubai and they retired him in weeks after Covid-19 hit so the thing is you can live a luxurious life there but can not bring something back from there.
100/100
similar situation with us I lived in UAE for 16 years and now my dad who has spent 25 years in etisalat has to come back.
@@your_everyday_otaku5162 I feel SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO bad for you man. My family had to move back from Kuwait back in 2010 after spending 30+ years there. I still hate my dad for this and still sometimes argue with him for this decision he made. My dad was in zain, a big telecom company there. My brotherly advice to you: START PLANNING YOUR EXIT ROUTE. Trust me, its not worth living here. I just turned 28 and I feel like i've wasted 13 years of my life :/ I am planning to move soon. I just don't know how.
@@NouraizAsad I left UAE brother, my dad had this patriotic attitude that prevented us from moving to the west back when we had many opportunities. I am currently in pak preparing for my med exam while my dad is in UAE trying to get a job which is pretty much impossible considering Etisalat is the only well-known good paying telecom company.I keep telling my dad that the ammout of hard work he has given us is enough and that now he should come back and rest, but he doesnt seem to understand it.
@@your_everyday_otaku5162 My dad also worked in Etisalat for 40 years and only good thing once he retired was that me and my younger brother already had jobs there.. eventually my parents came on sponsored visa back to UAE... Eventually i immigrated to Canada with my family, but plan to return insha'Allah once i get citizenship to be near my parents and siblings..
From Canada: 27 years; never going back.... respect this guy...
I'm your age and Its so tough now. My crs score is 471 and its still not enough :/ I will now tryi applying for jobs directly. My dad got landing papers for canada pr back in 2001 and he threw it away. I hate him for that.

Totally agree with what Junaid said in this video… having lived in UK for 4 years and living in UAE from the last 15 years… the point of short term pain and long term pain is spot on along with the pro n cons of GCC and west.
Wished seen ur video or realized these fact 10-15 years ago.
Keep up the good work
As an overseas Pakistani. I love it how you explained it which is 100% true. And more power to you.
I am a vet by profession. Spent 29 years of my life in Pakistan. I got frustrated within 2 years of my graduation and started working hard to move abroad. I recently moved to the UAE in March 2023. Came here looking for a job. With the right preparation, my professional skills and strategy, I got a job within 2 weeks. Although the paperwork took some time but eventually it was good. Today was my 6th day at job. It seems hard in the beginning but you acclimatize with the environment because everything is so simply organized. As Junaid Akram said that GCC is temporary. That's why I had planned side by side to move to Canada, which I will eventually within a couple of months. So get out of this shithole and do something for yourself and for your family. Trust me you don't want to die in stone age.
True idk what to do finish currently in bachelor but I joined uni late due to gap after Alevels my grades do stop me from applying to study in turkey and I can't find any other cheap option to do Bachelor's in 😢 n the degree would most probably finish by mid 20s can't imagine staying here for that long

Informative comments with an informative poodcast.
My father left Pakistan in 1960, soon graduating from university. When I grew up, a relative invited me to live and work in Karachi. I spent several years in Pakistan, and of course I had the luxury of leaving at anytime, but the rewards will stay with me, as that experience in life is invaluable. That experience taught me how to adapt to virtually any society in our big, complicated world. I can now better appreciate people who come from a culture much different than mine.
I moved to the US for my Masters, got a great job right before graduation, worked for couple of years and then came back to Pakistan. The experience changed my perspective towards life completely. Now I run my own design firm with employees and service clients based in the city of San Francisco from Pakistan. I agree with you when you said that living abroad changes your life for good. It really did and it made me a better person for sure.

As you have rightly said that life in GCC is pretty easy (in general) as compared to Western world. People take it as granted and consider it as blessing. Yes, its a blessing but it has a shelf life. It doesn't last long. One day you have to move back from the Musafirkhana of GCC and come back to Pakistan. You'd be thinking as if you had been living on a different planet.
So my advice to those who live in GCC, start applying from the Western countries from there as well. Remember, Pakistan k haalaat will be same for the next hundreds of years.
Please clear the point that why gcc is temporary?
@fun tube, because GCC does not give citizenship. At least not as fast as Western countries.
Yes... plz give details why is that?
@@jacksonmaster4186 Google it bro
@@funtube1523 because they do not give residenship and also the tax the money indirectly and you have to give it in the shape of buying goods and raw materials for needed requirements.

What you have mentioned is absolutely true and I liked the way you summarised all the pains and gains. I'm sure this video will be helpful for a lot of people.
Wanted to add one point though. I'm living in KSA for around 9 years and yes, the cost has been increased many folds but still if you compare to Pakistan people can save a bit. Not as much as it was before or compared to other countries but still a bit.

When you have good savings and then apply forv Canada/ Aus immigration and leave the gulf in late 30s. If your father is rich to bear first year all expenses approx 30-35 lacs , then you need not go to Gulf , instead apply in Can/Aus as student in ur 20s and try to settle there and get PR. There is no other option other than what I have stated. Allah has made this whole world, if possible, niklo aur bahar bas jao.
I agree with you. Good suggestions.

Bhot achi Advice di Apny Yhi Plan Hai mera bhi😊
Best advice here
Nice
Strongly agree with you here!! ❤
My grandfather came to the UK in the 1950s , i cant imagine how difficult it would of been back then. We still have letters and cassette recordings he used to send his familu in pakistan.
Great analysis and fairly spot on. I moved to Melbourne around 20 years ago and like Junaid said the first few years were really tough.. the lack of halal food, mosques and the constant worry around funds was quite tough, the weather is quite harsh too.. in fact some of my friends actually decided to return but Alhamdulillah if Allah has decided something for you, you will eventually get it.. that said the only condition is hard work.. because I was young we worked hard and saw the miracle happen ..all those obstructions around immigration slowly went away and I've been a AU citizen for over 14 years now..
Life is still tough .. like Junaid said we have to manage the different cultural styles here but now the Muslim community is much more strong and we have many mosques and islamic education schools .. no issues around halal food either .. the only advice I will give is don't expect others to do things for you.. in the current age of IT everything every bit of info is online .. from university prospects to job opportunities to real estate options etc but what I see is most Pakistanis don't have the initiative to step ahead, they want all the info etc given to them rather than working hard to retrieve it. Anyhow if anyone is keen to learn more about living in AU you can contact me . Stay blessed and believe in Allah's plans for you
Pakistan maybe be backwards from many countries, but whole Pakistan can't shift to other countries it's nearly impossible.
Second everyone has different capabilities and they can face hard difficulty in other countries which looks gloomy from outside.
And one day you will die whether in usa or other country.

I learned about the short-term gain when I was living in Dubai.... And move to Canada to access to better healthcare, education, and job opportunities. It was not easy to adjust to a new culture and climate, and being far from family and friends is the very painful. But Alhumdolillah Now I am well settled here with house and parents visit me every year in summer. BEST Decision I've made in my life
Kindly mention the high taxes, higher cost of living, and other random bills comparing your income. Does it do justice with all the welfare countries doing these days to the world economy slowing down?

Moved to Abu Dhabi, UAE from Islamabad, PAK back when I was in middle school (with my family).
Came to the US for my university on a scholarship.I graduated last year and I'm working full-time in analytics here now.
I've done my share of part-time jobs, cleaning (lol), struggled, assimilated culturally. Was it worth it? 100%.
There's something about America. Individual liberty, freedom to choose, democratic norms and principles, functioning institutions. Don't get me wrong, we have our fair share of issues but honestly going back at this point is unthinkable.
I encourage every individual who is inclined a little towards critical thinking and possesses a drive for self-growth to pack up and move. 🇺🇸
Great video! So relatable!
Salute u Junaid Bhai, i think ur next video should be on " how to go West/Australia". So that those who are willing to take pain earlier could achieve their goals under ur guidance. So plz must make the second installment on this topic. It's due on u from ur young followers..
Ditto
I'm assuming that was sarcasm??
If you're so proud to be Muslim, stop moving to Western countries founded on Christian values. Move to a Muslim country NOT the west.
I am so glad i watched this video. I was born and raised in the GCC and lived there for 14 years and recently had to fly back to pakistan. Its been 4 years now; still cannot adapt to the pakistani culture but there is still some hope thanks to you!
Thank you so much Junaid Sir! This video helped me so much!
بہت ھی بہترین مشورہ دیا ھے آپ نے ،
I have lived in Saudi, Australia and Canada in last 7 years and I 100% agree with you. You have compared ME with western countries quite accurately.
Run to the kaffir country!🤣
I want to leave Pakistan I born in Saudi Arabia 🇸🇦 😔 Mera Kiya Kasor Ta K Me Pakistani Hogaya Me to Toh Saudi me peda Howa ta mentally me bohte pareshaan ho 😢 Abi pase be Nahi hai Pakistan 🇵🇰 Sy Jane Ka me abi 17.5 Years Ka Hoon 😢😢😢
Stay in Saudi or another Muslim country.
I arrived in Australia in 2019 and this year, I will be going to apply my citizenship InshaAllah. I just recently switched my job and was flabbergasted that - out of 95 people - I was selected, even though I was not having any reference or any setting within the company. The hiring was totally based on my skills/experience and my indefinite rights to work in Australia (i.e. PR). This thing is still a shock for me how these countries have an automatic system to get the skillful and deserving people on to the top. I would highly recommend that anyone who is planning to come to Australia/UK/Canada/US, please do it asap and try your luck in these countries. Best of luck.
Very enriched information by Junaid and readers, I want to add my experience. We lived a sound life in KSA, in early 40s it was quite difficult to adjust in western countries so we moved to Turkey, took citizenship by investment. This country is very good for living if u have a better investment. Facilities of European countries and more Islamic in nature. I love to live here, not too far from home. Education health every thing is superb.
I love Pakistan 🇵🇰. I pray for much better Pakistan then the Europe,etc.
I and like will struggle here for better Pakistan 🇵🇰.
And in last

I came to Germany as student in 2013, first few years was really hard… as a young i did very odd jobs to support myself… But Now AlhamdulilAllah!!! Life is settled will get German Passport next year…
Assalam o Alaikum brother... How can I contact you?
You are spot on explaining the pain and gain. Please emphasize as much as you can on getting a quality education, as lack of quality education remains a hurdle on individual's progress. Quality education/skills, being open minded on taking risks/chances ultimately leads one to a successful life.
Stay blessed by spreading awareness ❤❤
Really appreciate your efforts to empower people & show them the path towards betterment & a prosperous life. Many may not see that but this can be a huge contribution to someone’s life.
Spot on analysis. I came to the U.S in early 2001.
The first years are always challenging but like Junaid said, it gets a lot better later. I am comfortable now with a great family. I did miss my father’s funeral ( reached on the 3rd day) but made it barely to my mom’s death bed. This is the kind of price you pay to live a comfortable life here.
I would add one thing to Junaid’s points: In my opinion, if you are younger ( say under 30), and are willing to face the initial music of khawari, America is the best place in the long run. If you are 30-35 plus, dont bother. It is harder to do things younger people can do when you are above a certain age. If you are older, plan to come here with some type of investment/capital because the big risk taking time likely has passed and you are better off investing in relatively safer things like gas stations, subways etc with somewhat stable and predictable income.
If you are younger, however, take all the risks you can. It is called the land of opportunities for a reason.
Good luck 👍
Great story filled with emotions. Can you kindly guide how to land in the land of opportunities and fulfill the American Dream?
@@hogwarts2.0 get into IT, big companies may even sponsor you on work visa then. Harder to get in by self unless some family sponsor too
good point added
Everyone who has lived for a while in US will discourage you to come. There is no age limit for settling in Europe or US. One can take as many risk as possible but only thing is that once gone there is no return. Remember that.
I was in US for almost 20 years but price I had to pay was being away from the family. I had to come back as my father was in hospital and mom being alone as me being the only son and head of the family. My advise to you is please don't go there if you don't have any education or else you would be doing odd jobs with minimum pay and working like a dog all your life. I have seen people there who didn't had their papers and just because of that they lost mostly all their families including father, mother etc and couldn't come back. They are still there with point of bo return as all of them are stuck there. Is that the price you want to pay just to be abroad? I have seen people succeed in Pakistan as well so please stop putting our country down. Yes there are problems here but trust me there are problems everywhere but of different kind. Even if you get US passport, Canadian of whichever you are always looked down as second class citizen doing all the odd jobs which no one else does specially white or black Americans.
Zabardast understanding !!!
Thank you so much for this video Junaid Bhai ❤
Keep up the good work 👍🏽
Back when I was in the midst of finishing my college, I went to take the army psychometric tests etc. I passed with flying colours. During the initial medical in the room, I was referred to CMH due to having flat feet. I walked from the recruitment premises to CMH which was a 20 min walk. Upon arriving there, as a naive 17-18 year old, I was clueless so talked to a few army personnel to ascertain where I was going. I finally found the right place. There was a middle age army lower rank personnel there managing the forms/admin work. After ignoring me for several minutes, I tried the 3rd time to get his attention which pissed him off and he threw my application form on the floor with disdain whilst angrily telling me off to do what I can as he won’t process it. My poor teenager heart, spirit and confidence broke on the spot in the presence of bystanders but little did I knew he did me a great favour. A few months later, I emigrated to a developed western country, acquired higher education, settled here, and ended up working for some of the largest companies on the planet in varying roles and projects. A lot of people merely read Surah Al-Anfaal but I have lived through it many times - ‘They were planning, and Allah was planning, and Allah is the best planner.’ Indeed Allah is the best planner. Alhamdulillah!
Kudos to you, I can related to the, "poor teenager heart, spirit and confidence broke" part. Massive respect.
I’m a firm believer that Allah is the best planner. I leave everything to Him n relax because I know He will never let me down. Alhamdulilah!
Kindly correct " Surah Al-Anfaal"

No worth of talent and skills in Pakistan
Now I am thankful to Allah that I didn’t join that department because more better future opportunities are open for me
Thank you Junaid bhai for transparent analysis of the state we are in, and our options at hand.
Now I tell you Indian Story, 20-30 years back, Indians also went abroad in search of better lifestyle. Now the situation is this, many of them want to come back, have come back (including me) and will go only to study better technology, because opportunities are better and ample in India. In future I would not be surprised to see students from west coming to India for learning tech. I wish Pakistan has not gone other way, you would be sailing in with us Indians. It's unfortunate.
Bhai Pak se better hai but itna bhi nahi.
India is much better than Pakistan system wise! only problem is the bursting population.
I came to USA in 93 and now I have it all including the best education.

I moved to UK last year. I completely agree what Junaid Bhai said. At starting I barely get time to sleep not even 3 hours sometimes. But I continued my struggle. now it’s getting better. My job is very challenging but still it will help me a lot in my future. It’s true that struggle is inevitable but you have to choose its time. Just have faith in Allah and keep trying. He will open door where you could never have imagined.
Bro Allah is a fraud I met an ex muslim in UK and he convinced me that Islam is a cult and all the things mentioned in Quran are un-scientific

@@Vloglets. as Junaid said UAE is short term gain , the only pain is when you have to leave that life and come back to pakistan we can't adjust back there ,for UK life is extremely hard but the gain is better future for children's as the education is free and after certain time all pain converts into gain...

I suggest you to migrate to any other stable European country be it Spain or Poland. Even the British people are moving out of the "damp and cold" shithole Island in droves.
what is the lifestyle of UK, income and taxes. Can we save enough to buy own car/ house etc.
@@huzaifahpardesiuk lifestyle is very difficult but you can survive if you are a hard worker, you can do odd jobs but those odd jobs are not easy you have to work hard then you will get a good amount like if you are doing security job in Uk you can earn upto 2000£ per month that is 7 to 8 lakhs pkr, and for your question that can you buy your car and house so my answer is for car yes you can buy as early as you want like you can buy car here after working 2 to 3 month only, but for house you need time hard work one day you will buy your house as well but if you are living on a rental property then still you can manage the expenses like you can buy car have good quality life healthy working style and also you can send money to back home pakistan to support your loved ones, rest upon you if you are a hard worker then you will succeed in UK
You said the most accurate thing short term pain but long term gain. I see many people in Pakistan prefer their jobs over moving overseas, trust me guys its just 1 year of hardship and after that you start enjoying the luxuries. Things aren't going to change any sooner in Pakistan. Once you get married it would be difficult for you to settle overseas.
In Today's Pakistan they will not see the purity of ur heart the only thing they will see is the money in your bank to be honest, that's why youth is suffering and get depressed and the ratio of sucide among youth is gonna be common May ALLAH guide us and bless all .

Well said bro. People need to be guided.
I was born and raised in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. After my intermediate, I moved to Pakistan to pursue my Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees. I totally agreed with what Junaid bhai is saying. Even as a youth I was in culture shock when I first time moved in Pakistan due to all the stuff he described but I had to become used to it and as a young individual I managed it but when you think about your parents, this whole scenario becomes very much scary because they don’t have the same energy like us and unfortunately, one day they will have to move back to Pakistan.

@@learnwithejaz3484No stay out of western countries.
I lived in Dubai for almost a decade before moving to Australia permanently (now a citizen). Your analysis is absolutely correct. Just want to add that one should see middle east as a stepping stone where one should look to build savings and assets and then take those savings to first world countries and it will take you a long way.
Also the skill set mismatch is one of the biggest challenge Pakistani youth is facing in my humble view, we are churning out grads but they lack hard and soft skills both and are not equipped to take up roles in top tier multinational companies unfortunately. Would suggest to do a video specific to this issue.
Really appreciated video you have make for us.. Superb said and keep shine keep upload these types of videos.. God bless you❤
Very positive and enlightening message.
Trials of life will be there, specially for Muslims. Their shape and forms will vary. Only you can judge and decide if your decisions of staying back or moving to middle east or west leads to worldly success, afterlife success or both.
Pros and cons are every where.
But keep this in mind, once out, very very difficult to come back and adjust.
May Allaah help us make the right decisions in this temporary life.
Watching this video from my university in Germany. It's just my 5th month here and doing part time job along with my Masters. Alhamduillah I'm earning that much which i used to earn by working 10 months in Pakistan. Life is tough here specially due to language barrier society integration is difficult without learning native language. But the good thing is in my city ( Darmstadt) we have a very good Pakistani community and we have a Pakistani mosque here where we use to offer namaz.

I second you, whatever you said is 100% true. We got our Canadian citizenship and then moved to Gulf. I think it was our best decesion to take short term pain and long term gain.
He is 100% correct, i migrated to Canada with my 3 kids alone 14 years ago, i had to sell all my jewelry and a plot i had from my late husband. I had to do a fresh start from zero. It was tough on me to earn bread n butter but Alhamdolillah time passed n now all my kids have degrees from Canadian Universities and they have open options to travel, work and earn whichever way they find better.
Junaid is right when one is young he/she has stamina to cope with hardships in life.
I agree with this awesome comparison and nice advice. I moved to Canada 15 years before. Great work Junaid 👍.
Now go move to a Muslim country.
Hi, I came to the US in 2016 in my late 30s. Already people were questioning as to what I would do here at this age. Still went through with it with my wife and then my son was born. Life has been great. Like you rightly said, it is not easy. We have come a long way since 2016, but it is still a learning curve trying to adapt yourself when you live here on a permanent basis and not just come for holidays and then head back. The only thing that bothers me is missing my family. Unfortunately that is the compromise you make. I am a great advocate for anyone wanting to move abroad, to experience life outside of Pakistan. It could be for education or moving somewhere permanently etc. Broadens your horizon and develops your personality for the better. There is no smooth sailing but the end result is worth the struggle. Love your content. Take Care
Aoa
i need to make a decision here.
i m 41 have a really good job in Pakistan
no financial issues.
But as one matures the reality dawns that it is useless to keep knocking one head against a mountain. this isn't a country. it's just a huge enterprise run by few.
today im at a crossroad of my life.
i ve two options
1. to move to west my self. in which case the job has to go. and i gather whatever i have and move abroad.
2. wait another five years and get my son admission abroad and wait for the children and spouse to get settled and follow afterwards.
@@adilrazakhalil Salam, thank you for your response. In all honesty, 41 is no age as compared to what people achieve or end up doing here in their 70s , 80s or even older. As long as you have the health and passion to forge ahead you are good to do. You have set two options for yourself. Weigh the pros and cons for each option and then go from there.
Time is of essence here. I would suggest if you have a place in mind, go for a visit just to get the feeler. Helps a lot.
It is not going to be easy but the end result is worth it. Wanting your child move abroad and then wait is a different option altogether.
Unfortunately as things are in our homeland Pakistan 5 years is a bit of a stretch to wait for something to happen.
As much as I love Pakistan, I would suggest moving out yourself and then go from there. Things in Pakistan change like a blink of an eye. Economic reasons, the unpredictability of the Rupee and the list is endless. Not saying that things are outstanding abroad but at least the system works and you don't need to do a 'safarish' for most things if not all. But then it is my perspective, situation and circumstances differs person to person. I would still take the risk do whatever I did all over again if I had to. I hope you achieve what you intend to do. Take care and best of luck.
USA sucks for Pakistanis don't come here.
@adilrazakhalil NO don't move to the west. Stay in Pakistan or another Muslim country.

Lived in ksa my entire childhood currently 20 moved 3 years ago back to Pakistan because of the taxes imposed on families in ksa and i have still not recovered from the fact that we are literally living centuries behind from travelling in latest model cars with AC in ubers to travelling on bikes without any safety measures, no roads, no signals, no infrastructure nothing. Not a single day goes by without any form of depression, be it loadshedding, no water,gas robberies hearing someone getting killed for not giving their phone to robbers, property frauds door ki baat general har cheez mai fraud bhai, corruption aur koi kaam refrence k bagair nhi possible. Aisa environment students ko dia jai toh kia expectations rakhtay ho is mulk k future k liay..
DONT MOVE TO PAKISTAN AT ANY COST especially for studying koi mindset, concentration experience gain karna possible nhi unless kisi retired general ko jantay ho.
I've also lived in KSA, Riyadh, for more than 10 years before returning to this shit hole, so I can truly understand your pain...

You sound like you live in Karachi. Move to Islamabad. Learn to appreciate what Allah gave you and perhaps he will make it better. InshaAllah. If you are grateful.

Oh wow, spot on. Must see.
Junaid bhai I wish we had people like yourself to guide like this. I always aspired to go abroad and study on scholarship but never found a single person who encouraged the idea. Alhamdulillah I did my undergrad from Pakistan worked in probably the best corporate employer for a few years and came to the states last year without getting a penny from my parents which is what I always wanted. Life here is not easy I’m literally on my way to my part time job right now. I’ll be working for almost more than half a day today, have learned so many lessons already by signing lease at the wrong place, working all kinds of jobs on campus from catering to IT specialist. But Alhamdulillah this is all just a stepping stone for my long term goals. Coming from a middle class background you are taught to think that you’re at a disadvantage but never ever let those voices define your journey. If you’re willing to put in the hard work and genuinely aspire to do something big in your life, set your goals timely and be ready to sacrifice your time with your family, it will InSha Allah work out in the long run.
Can we not apply abroad while sitting in Pakistan?
Brother can you guide me
Junaid bhai, thank you so much for getting this conversation started.
This is a topic very commonly discussed in our desi households but our family fails at showing a roadmap as to what to do or how to do it.
As a 19 year old the thought of moving abroad is very daunting, especially with how you have your roots here, but for some reason this video has created a spark inside of me to research these regions and to explore new horizons.
I personally have a lot of talents and have been working since I was 13, so alhumdulilah alhumdulilah I have a lot of work experience and have developed a good work ethic alhumdulilah (thanks to my parents and my mentors) and lets see what the future holds with us.
If you could make this into an entire series or an extended discussion/podcast with those who have moved from Pakistan at a young age (18-25) and if they could share their experiences then that would be great. I think completing my Bachelors in PK and then planning to move to the US for Masters + Job would be a good idea, lets hope for the best InshaAllah.
Thank you ❤
I would love to connect with you and learn from your experiences given from family and mentor

I left the cushy childhood of Jeddah, Saudi Arabia where my dad was working for Canada at the age of 17 for University after having completed my A-Levels. The next 14 years were hard work, toil, depression, homesickness, lots of setbacks and recalibrations. Junaid bhai you are right 10-15 years of hard work and once you have your passport you are set. Interestingly enough, I moved to Dubai just earlier this year just after my son was born in Canada on a lucrative offer (education, housing covered etc.). So another way of looking at it is get your qualifications and passport and you can come back to the GCC countries as any G7 passport (UK, US or Canada) will get you access to top salary and benefits. Also the grooming you will get in the West will make you successful in your ventures no matter where you are in the world. I am now back close to my family in Saudi and Pakistan after a hard and long toil far from home.
My advice, if going abroad, block a minimum of 5-7 years and have a solid plan of action. It took me 14 years to do the whole route (odd jobs, education completion, then 5 year work experience) because I just left for Canada with not much of a plan. But if you have a solid plan and are willing to put in the work, 5-7 years is all you need to make it!
So in summary, Junaid bhai you are right! Thanks for this!
P.S. American IS definitely the land of opportunity if you are single or only a couple. For families with children, Canada is better as you get access to their welfare system (Canada Child Benefit, Canada Energy Credit, Low Income Support etc.) to help you get your feet set
Good. Enjoy the albaik
Jazakallah
Junaid Bhai main yeh kahoon ga ke as a Pakistani passport holder jaisa ke aap ne kaha ke hamare liye America Europe Australia jana kafi mushkil hai bank statements wagira k
or jis tarah hamari currency devalue ho rahi hai us se toh or bhi mushkil hota ja raha hai. I would say mera opinion hai main khud 15 saal Saudi Arabia main raha hoon. Hamare liye GCC countries jana aasan hai kiyun ke unka visa aasani se mil jati hai or as compared to west sasta bhi hai. I would say ke app kuch saal yahan mehnat karo experience gain karo or uske kisi western country main apply karo tab wahan jana bhi asaan hoga or aap ke paas relevant experience bhi hoga. Main khud itne saal wahan raha or hamare bohat se jaane wale no bhi yehi kiya or ab woh wahan par bohat achi tarah settled hain.
Very positively explained, I am Indian living in US. He is correct first 10 years will be ugly in west but it gets better once you are economically comfortable and have there passport. For Pakistanis it’s easier and more ways to settle faster than Indian passport.
Well that's why you have to prepare yourself first hand so that you face the problems that you face in the first 10 years and about the first 10 weeks eh?
I heard, u people have to surrender indian passport to get PR in another country
Just curious why is it tougher for Indians than Pakistanis?
@@ryancooper1144 correct. We can take something called OCI overseas citizen of india to travel back to India visa free. Also loose voting rights, and are treated as nris if we plan to relocate, means more fees, charges for govt services than an Indian.
@@ryancooper1144 yes sir! We don't have dual citizenships. If you want to understand what are the benefits of dual citizenships, ask your army generals
I'm not from Pakistani and I don't know how I stumbled upon this video, but I strongly agree with Junaid. It's been 10 years I have settled down in Canada. I had my fair share of struggles here but this country values and respect talent, and utilize them for the good of community. Be wise before you choose ur options.
I moved to New Zealand with my family in my mid 30s which is still late but its better to more as early in your as possible and now I am well settled here. One thing that bothered me for long time after coming from middle east to NZ is the money factor. You earn more there in middle east but for short term. Its good for saving but if you want sustainable life, western countries are better. Muslim community has grown significantly so halal food is not an issue. A big shoutout to @Junaid Akram for doing this video and would like to offer my services if you need in this regards. JazakAllah
