How many people from Pakistan live in Asia?

According to the United Nations, 4,570,000 people from Pakistan live in Asia.

In total, 6,610,000 people from Pakistan live abroad, and about 69% of them live in Asia.

However, the figure counts migrants, not their children born here. The real community is therefore larger.

Where to meet people from Pakistan in Asia

No community for people from Pakistan exists in Asia on Compatri yet. However, one first member is enough to open one in their city.

As soon as a community starts, its meetups show up on the events page, with the date, the venue and the number of attendees.

Joining the Pakistan community in Asia

Compatri brings diasporas together where they live. First, you choose the community of your city. Then you discover what its members organise: meals, parties, afterworks or mutual aid. Finally, you message compatriots who share your interests.

You can also host your own meetup: a meal, an outing or a party. It then appears to members of your city, and you follow sign-ups from your account.

Your exact location never appears: other members only see an approximate area. In addition, joining a community and attending events costs nothing.

The Pakistan diaspora elsewhere in the world

Elsewhere, the Pakistan diaspora also lives in the United Kingdom, the United States, and Canada. Each country has its own page, with its cities and meetups.
