[AI] Muhammad Salman Siddiqui writes for the Nation: How technology succors visually impaired persons in Pakistan?
How would you feel if you see that the visually impaired persons are using the smartphones like ordinary people — sending messages, making calls and using the internet? Well, this is not an unusual thing anymore, as the modern technology has allowed blind people to live their lives independently by using various tools and devices. http://www.morenews.pk/2016/06/24/how-technology-succors-visually-impaired-persons-in-pakistan/ Both, iPhone and Android, feature text-to-speech (TTS) software, and you don’t have to buy a very expensive smartphone for enabling this function. However, Samsung smartphones are considered more accessible because of their home made UI and Android customization. Similarly, there’s also a screen reader for the Windows OS, which performs the same functionality as the smartphone screen readers. It supports most of the Windows-based applications, including the Microsoft Office and the Google Chrome. Life of a visually impaired person in the modern world No doubt, visually impaired (VI) people are much progressed in the developed countries, as they are playing their productive role in all fields. The modern technology has helped them to compete with the sighted community in all walks of life. Whether there’s a Barber or a Ph.D. doctor, the visually impaired persons are playing their active role in all the disciplines. Don’t go very far, just have a look across the border; you will find many visually impaired persons with their IT companies and software houses. Similarly, you will find them studying the technical and science subjects. Meet Aqil Sajjad the only Pakistani blind man in the United Stated, who has recently completed his Ph.D. in Physics from the Howard University. He thinks that technology has played a vital role in making it possible. Apart from that, he is an excellent beep baseball player — a modified version of the game for blind people. Similarly, Saqib Sheikh, a blind software engineer, is currently working on the Bing search engine with the Microsoft. Recently, he has developed a smartphone application for the blind people, which allows them to recognize the faces of individuals around them and to judge their mood. Moreover, a Pakistani student has recently created a smart blind stick to help the blind people. It doesn’t stop here; there are thousands of visually impaired people who are performing in various spheres of life. From time to time, development in the technology has helped blind. To mention, the self-driving car for which no driver is needed and works through GPS system, Smart glasses which allow them to identify the nearby objects, various smart applications which help them recognize images/printed text or currency notes, and Braille, which works as a paper and pencil for them. Status of the visually impaired community in Pakistan Despite all the advancement, awareness and contrary to what I have mentioned earlier, the visually impaired persons in Pakistan have quite a difficult life. If we talk about technology, yes, they seem to be fully updated —they can use smartphones and PCs with the help of a screen reader, can walk independently through white canes, etc., but this is not what they desire. They have to face huge technological barriers in their day-to-day activities. Take the example of the screen reader; it helps them read only the English text, not to mention, there is no Urdu language support available. Although there’s software which supports Urdu, it is still in the testing phase. Members of the VIs community are of the view that government is not serious about the development of Urdu screen reader. “Every project requires the high expenditures, and the government doesn’t seem to be convinced for allocating funds,” explains Shahid Memon, the Chairman Pakistan Association of the Blind. In Pakistan, an average blind person can only dream about gadgets smart glasses since it’s a matter of affordability. Despite all the hue and cry of tech development by our incumbent government, nobody seems interested in developing an affordable alternative to smart glasses for people like us. “One of the reasons that Pakistani VIs are left behind in technology is that the government has not made any successful policy to address their issues so far,” says M. Shabbir Awan, a Research Associate in National Defense University Islamabad. “Right policies provide the ladder for the society’s progress. So far, PWDs in Pakistan have had 1981 ordinance; 2002 National policy; 2006 Action Plan; and, 2008 United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (UNCRPD) designed to address their issues. But unfortunately none has succeeded to provide intended benefits to PWDs,” he explained. In abroad, if a blind person cannot afford any technological device, the NGO’s working their help him/her to get it. But unfortunately, there’s no such practice in Pakistan. “The NGO’s operating in Pakistan are mostly unaware of the latest technology,” commente

In the government record, no such card exists. I have raised my query with the disability commission, but they told that it is just an idea and final decision has not yet been taken.

Re: [AI] regarding my concerns to post to the Group:
Hi Vidya, As mentioned by Aravind, it is a common phenomena. In case you receive such a message through a group, you may report the same to the moderator for remedial action. In the event, you receive such messages, privately, to your inbox, you may choose to filter the messages, by setting all mails from unknown senders to be directed to the spam folder, so that, you may not be bothered by such mails. I've done the same thing and all mails who are not on my contact list goes to spam folders. I regularly, check my spam folders and delete unwanted mails from the spam folders, and any mail of interest I direct it to my inbox and add that id to my contact list. Hope this helps.

Re: [AI] Tips for filling disability ID online form
i called the number given on the site as i was not able to register my existing med certi ,as it is a computerised one issued in gujarat. the reply i got was --"the facility is not officially launched but it is only for the practice for state govt officials." so ,being an individual pwd i would not be able to do anything. so i should wait till the service is launched formally .additionally the tel no ,to be called ,is 011-24369054 because this is the number that i was told to call when i called 011-24369056(contact no mentioned on the site).

I have just visited one forest village in my state and I had to turn to and fro 20 kms to get repair our 4 wheeler tire puncture. as most of accessindia members having desktop and laptops at their drawing rooms, this does not mean that facilities are actually reaching to the genuine users. I have a nearest DRM of railway is raipur and the surrounding of raipur DRM is more than 500kms. it means that a blind person living 500kms away from his nearest DRM, he has to travel to get his smart railway ID card for 500kms. and there is no train service he must travel by bus. here in chhattisgarh there is no state transport corporation, in which a blind person can get concession. also the railway ID card is not a smart card, it is just a hard paper conventional card and its details are to be manually entered in PRS system by the chief booking officer. there is no chip and magnetic strip on it. if government can arrange a camp for voter IDs, why not for this disability card. as many blind persons still could not get their aadhar due to denial of enrollment centres, how is it possible to get this disability UID without aadhar. first he has to get aadhar. - Original Message - From: "akshun mahajan" To: "AccessIndia: a list for discussing accessibility and issues concerning the disabled."
