· Pakistán: Un minuto de silencio honrando a MJ en la Asamblea de Sind

Pakistan

Paksitani blog PKKH calls this a death of common sense: “Just when you think our so called ‘elected representatives’ can’t embarrass us anymore, they tend to prove us wrong. The Sindh Assembly has this morning held a minute’s silence as a mark of respect to Michael Jackson, on his sad demise.”
