On March 29 the entire Pakistani media was abuzz with the news that the svelte and sassy Humaima Malik would be the first Pakistani actress to address Sindh Assembly. How come? Well, the answer is: she is now a WWF ambassador and is supposed to spread the energy-saving message all across the country.

So did she deliver that speech? No idea, because no news item followed after that. Come to think of it, if that could happen, it would be interesting to see what kind of points of order or points of motion Humaima M would be able to inspire the legislators to come up with.
