Pakistan has come up with a novel way of confronting the country's worsening electricity shortage: turning off the air conditioning in government offices, and ordering all the employees not to wear socks.
Civil servants across the country have been sent a memo detailing the new dress code, which came into force last week. Sandals and moccasins are now to be worn by all staff, but without socks.
"There shall be no more use of air-conditioners in public offices till such time that substantial improvement in the energy situation takes place," a cabinet directive said.
"The dress code includes white or light coloured shirt (full-sleeved or half sleeved) with light coloured trouser or shalwar kameez with waist coat, and moccasins (shoes without laces) or sandals (shoes with straps) without socks.
"All public servants have been given seven days for preparations and have been directed to observe the dress code." Full story...
