Parents protest as Pakistani students stuck in China under coronavirus lockdown

KARACHI, Pakistan - Around a hundred people called on Pakistan’s government to “bring back our children” from the locked down Chinese province of Hubei in a demonstration on Sunday in Karachi.

Pakistan’s government has so far ruled out evacuating the more than 1,000 Pakistani students in the province, home to the city of Wuhan, at the center of the coronavirus outbreak. But many students and their families have expressed growing frustration as the death toll in China mounts, pointing to other countries, including neighboring India and Bangladesh, evacuating their citizens.

“She is also begging me to come back home. Unfortunately, I haven’t any idea when I will go back home and see my mom,” he told Reuters.

😢

let them stay there, at least try to fucking contain the virus. these people only think about themselves

They safer in China than in Pakistan

My prayers are with your families

Many thousands of Pakistani students study at Chinese universities. If Pakistan is able to muster the number of charter flights necessary to evacuate so many thousands... will they be quarantined for 14 days? Or, if asymptomatic, will they just be allowed to wander the nation.

UNHumanRights pakistai government continuously voilating the human rights sayedzbukhari ImranKhanPTI SMQureshiPTI we don’t want to be a part of selfless slaughter... Save our lives. Evacuate us🙏🙏🙏 EvacuatePakistaniinWuhan mubasherlucman UNOCHA

My government(india) proposes pak to help your student to rescue as I did for maldives but pak igonore that's why all people of pak r vry angry with imran khan governmen. They said pak has left him to die

How many Pakies = 1 American? 10,000-20,000?

This is exactly the kind of stuff that helps a virus spread faster.
