#1 Multan is a Pakistani city in that Moslem country where Ismailis are hounded like hunted beasts by their sect competition the Sunnis in a marvelous display of islamic religious tolerance

The mangoes of Multan district are as luscious as Fatima's breasts. Multani khussa (traditional curly toed slippers), embroidery on dresses for women and men( yes, men wear dresses in Multan ), furniture such as camel saddles, earthenware pottery, painted pottery, camel-skin ware ( camel-skin water flagons for that trip across the Dasht-i-Marg ), surgical instruments like flaying knives and flying carpets are a few of the city's major exports, with a great demand within the country as well.

Mangos form a large portion of Multan's agricultural export market.
Multan is an important agricultural centre. It produces rice, maize, tobacco, bajra( refrain from sniffing that up your nose), moong (lentils), mash (lentils), masoor (lentils), oil seed such as rape ( the seed not the game) are also grown in quantities in the district. Mangoes, citrus, guavas and pomegranate are the main fruits grown in the Multan district. Additionally, dates, jaman, pears, phalsa ( phalsa, also called the Arab Dildo) and bananas are grown in minor quantities in the district.

The city is also rich in minerals. These include , coal, fire clay, gypsum, silica and rock salt..all products of the blistering desert. Most of these are excavated by happy dancing kaffir labor.
Since Multan is agriculture-based, there is also plenty of livestock( camels) still growing at a positive rate, which has led to milk processing/dairy products units, ( Camel and Donkey milk)ice cream and pharmaceuticals.... such as the kind you smoke.

You can buy a ticket and go there but leave your Daisy Dukes at home.
