A solution to the problem of Acid Attacks in Pakistan.

Film-maker Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy's triumph in becoming the first Pakistani to win an Oscar has been greeted with a mixed reception back home. She won the award for best documentary in the short subject category for her film “Saving Face”, about acid attacks on women. The film chronicles the work of acclaimed British-Pakistani plastic surgeon Mohammad Jawad (yes, my namesake).

Some have celebrated the occasion for Sharmeen’s achievement as a film maker while others have found the award to be a conspiracy to defame Pakistan internationally. The detractors point to the situation of other women so dear to the “right wing” sentiments and question how documentaries highlighting their plights are not acclaimed internationally. The issue of Aafia Siddique is one such example.

I have decided to solve the issue once and for all. My solution will not only benefit the potential victims of acid attacks in Pakistan, it will also be a humble addition to the many lists circulating on the internet at any given time about great Muslim inventions. Problem solved. Human Rights organisations and the world, take note.

The solution is….. Face Protection Mask. Some samples are given below. I have also provided links to some sellers at the end for those interesting in buying. I make no profit from this.

For those who are not interested in burying their heads into sand and really want to help, can check this website. 

 

For those women who are also interested in covering their faces.
