Very interesting article. This is really the money quote:

"There’s a lot of opportunity here. Pakistan is a clean slate in terms of the fact that web companies like Paypal doesn’t work, as soon as they type of stuff is happening, there’s going to be a lot of opportunity for new innovation here."

All the violence in the country hides the fact that it is a very large country with a rapidly growing middle class. I've read how, even in the middle of the Lebanese civil war, most people, on most days, lived their lives in Beirut as in any other city.

The opportunity is immense. Congrats to Trevor making some inroads there.

I have to admit I was really blown away. I had no idea what to expect or what Pakistan would look like and I've been so impressed by the talent here.
