[quote=Anonymous]I'm the poster above.....I realize that I focused only on Islamabad and not other areas of Punjab. If you are in a rural area, or working directly with the local population, you will probably feel more comfortable wearing a shalwar kameez. You can pick out the fabric and have the tailor make them to your specifications (the whole outfit was probably $10-$15) at one of the many shops in town. Presumably your colleagues will have recommendations and know where to go. I'll also add that I had a rather large group of colleagues who could show me the ropes and had the infrastructure of the Embassy and my office while there, so that helped with my comfort level. I obviously don't know what your situation is, but presumably they have a good set-up. One more thing, you will get food poisoning at some point no matter how careful you are, but you can buy Cipro for cheap at the drugstore or other medications if you need them. [/quote]
