The term P.A.K.I.

[Jet Li]

Is the term P.A.K.I. offensive/racist term to Pakistanis I have read that it is and it is not.

One strong argument is that it is not a racist/offensive term, as calling a Pakistani a P.a.k.i is no different to calling someone from Britain a Brit.

Please vote in the above poll. Thanks.

Only Pakistanis can vote.

it used to be racist term 20 years ago

now it is more commonly used to refer to Pakistanis...

although I have never heard this term being used anywhere in UK... so the whole term in my opinion is outdated and no longer in use. The young generation often do not know the meaning of this term... only dad and uncle kind of peoples used to use when they were young

And Bollywood still wants its to be a derogatory term, well one can easily guess why
