Postcard From Lahore

In Lahore:
- Like most cities, Lahore is taking stock of 2011's crime trends. Over 3,000 people were arrested this year; 632 people were murdered; and the police got incredibly good at solving kidnappings.
- Ten teams compete for the Lahore Open Polo Cup, which celebrates 125 years of the sport.
- Traders are threatening a strike to protest the city's electricity shedding, which has left them without power at crucial moments.
- A fish market goes international, shipping between 100 - 120 tons of fish to 15 countries.
