Abbey Khao becomes Pakistan’s first food truck to staff differently able people

What happened: The food truck concept in Pakistan’s capital, #Islamabad by the name of @abeykhao, has become the country’s  “First mobile restaurant staffed entirely by deaf workers, providing an economic opportunity for them.”  Ayesha Raza, the founder of AbeyKhao, belongs to a hard of hearing family and came up with the idea of the food truck,  “The majority of the deaf youth is unemployed in Pakistan, and they face issues like language barriers, inequality, and discrimination.”  Details: Ayesha Raza, in a bid to support her brothers who partially can not hear,  “I came up with the idea for AbeyKhao to give opportunities to my brothers.”  DailyPakistan quotes Ayesha Raza as,  “At AbeyKhao, customers embrace the deaf culture and place their orders in sign language.”  At the same time, she claimed that her food truck provides an employment opportunity for the differently-abled and bridging the communication gaps.  More: On the other hand, Ayesha’s brother used sign language to convey his message and Faizan said,  “We should create our own path through entrepreneurship, no matter how small it is, because we value our dignity as independent living beings more than anything else.”  The AbeyKhao food truck is located at the campus of Millenium Universal College, F-7 Markaz, Bhittai Road, Islamabad.
