Karachi’s Askari Amusement Park in a rare instance announced that it would only cater to male visitors every Monday
“Nine out of the 10 messages we got on our Facebook page were of males who wanted to visit us but with their friends or cousins who happen to be boys,” Askari Amusement Park’s Creative Marketing Director Anam Feroze told a private news outlet.
It is a common norm for most of the public as well as private establishments in the country to have ‘family days’ or a ‘families only’ policy owing to safety issues for women.
“Taking this into consideration and the fact that we want everyone to be able to visit the park we decided to make Monday only for male visitors,” she added.
