Thanks to RU-vid and those people, who create wonderful documentary. Being an afghan i didn't know that afghan cameleers play great role in building Australia. Being an afghan i am feeling very proud.
@@BigBoss1R may be big boss u r right but the documented evidence shows that the decendense of these people still live in Australia from 100 years. Australian made agreement with these cameleers for 3 years. Or may be more than 3 years. They paid them handsome salaries according to contract . Many left when the contract is finished and the job is done. And their are many afghan businessmen also involved in this rail project logistics support.
@@BigBoss1R Yes I know bro, In some how u r right, as i told earlier. Soo many bad things can happened in the past decades. Though in that times media didn't exists. Might is Right law exist in that time. But in Past 50 years through media and internet technology we can see too much from history and documented evidence. U know brother even in this times, when ever a person doing a job in any organizations or for person, i think he is salves too. Because Job means Jail of boss, to kill your dreams and work for others according to their rules and ambitions. So salves still exist and kicked back also exist in form of termination,and in the form; when the job is done. And get paid handsome salary.
@@BigBoss1R You are my brother. I know all about the history of Indo pak subcontinent and about British and east india company . This is too long topic, i think it takes months to discuss that history. Yes u r right we have to learn, not to be used like tissue paper. But we have to develop our culture, nation, country and our selves. That require knowledge and education. One thing is common in all afghans may be u agree or not. We afghans accept death, but we doesn't, accept to be slaves of others. And history prove that.
That was great thx, My great uncle worked with the afghan Cameleers in the early 1900 , i have photo of him dressed up like an afghan cameleers some where.
Big correction there was no Pakistan back then. Pakistan was established in year 1947, so before that most of the land and its belonged to us and still is our land.
You are wrong my friend I am from Kpk Pakistan and you don’t own anything the Pashtuns of those lands own that land.We joined Pakistan after the negligence of the Afghan king hence why you have 50-60 million Afghans in Pakistan. Those tribes voted and joined Pakistan for example the yousufzai state of swat the state of dir ect. The land doesn’t belong to Afghanistan rather those tribes who emigrated from Afghanistan after prosecution by the afghan king which was hundreds of years ago. The rest is history we are Muslims and happy s
@@peshpeshabdulla Lmaoo India I think you have no idea what your history is. The British used to pay is tax to take their goods to India. Those states joined Pakistan for example the state of swat which was a Pashtun state joined willingly. The rest of the Pashtuns joined as well. The rest is history punjabis Baluchi Pashtuns all live in Pakistan happily.
Indians are humbled and take appreciation for each and everything. These were mostly Pathans balochs and sidnhis and Kashmiris from all provinces of Pakistan.
Why Indians and Pakistanis want to take credit form other people. They were Afghans with Persian names, and features. Not Indians or Pakistanis. The nomads people of Afghanistan live same lifestyle to this day. They are called kochi.
Pakistan is made in 1947 so that camleers who come to Australia from today Pakistan areas were also afghan because pakistani pashthon r afghans and pakistani pashthon areas were part of afghanistan for thousands of years
Allah SWT bless the Australian government for allowing them to practice their religion and build mosques despite all the harshness. Allah SWT is so so beautiful! How HE brings these out for ple to know and respect. No hard work ever not recognized even if it takes a while. Shukr Alhamdolillah. May Allah SWT grant Jannatul Firdosh to all the Afghan camellias and their families and descendants.
About time to recognize the Afghans contribution to the economy of Australia in 1800s. However, Australia killed bunch of innocent afghans in the last 20 yrs. Just awful must afghans feel. Talk about human rights?
@@shahramashrat A lot of them spoke Pashto. Many years ago BBC Pashto did an excellent report on these cameleers and they talked to the family members of these cameleers. I don't know about all but a lot of them spoke Pashto, and Kandahar, Afghanistan, even now has camels.
@@KhairNoorThey were mostly Baloch mate,you can see their color skin,they were brown dark,they don't look pashtun however there were few pashtuns as well no one is denying.
Damn Pakistan or napakistan. At that time there were no country. It was India. Baloch and pashtoons from Balochistan and Afghanistan. Pokistan is still no country only Punjabi army rules. Damn pokestan.
