The most hilarious ‘helicopter’ tweets you need to read today

KARACHI: Pakistani twitter has been riding high ever since Information Minister Fawad Chaudhry attempted to defend the prime minister’s use of a helicopter to commute to and from Bani Gala, claiming that it cost only Rs50 to Rs55 per kilometre. He also said the premier’s actions do not amount to VIP culture and that he is trying to do what’s best for the public by not causing nuisance with a security convoy.

VIP culture or not, people were not willing to let go of the Rs55/k claim. Here are a few examples:

1. This gentlemen can’t decided whether he should get a Suzuki or a helicopter

Because #NayaMaths

I am thinking of disposing family’s old Corolla and getting a cheaper, more reliable form of transport. Can’t decide if I should get a Suzuki or a Helicopter. #nayamaths

2. Dark humour

True story though

I have to admit Pakistan HAS progressed. There was a time y'all couldn't afford ambulance for the head of the state and now helicopters for daily commute. I don't know how to feel about it though.

I was going to buy a moterbike but now as our information minster told us that it costs 55RS per 13 KM for a helicopter so I'm gonna buy it

9. Last one, we promise

Or not

If a helicopter travels at 200km/hr, and cost of fuel is PKR 50 per km, at what velocity will Shireen Mazari throw her cup of tea at Fawad Ch at the next cabinet meeting?
