Miftah Ismail also thanked CEO Apple for this relief.

No doubt, the monsoon has caused havoc across Pakistan and many people have suffered due to this. This is high time we need to address global warming and its effects on climate change since today Pakistan has to bear the cost, maybe tomorrow it would be the whole world fighting for food and shelter.
