youthia

(in Pakistan) An Urdu language derogatory slang for a fervent supporter of ex-cricketer turned politician of Pakistan Imran Khan and his party "Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf". It is a singular male noun.
It is a portmanteau of English word "youth" and "Urdu word "chutia" (meaning moron).
The implication is that a youthia is a not just a political supporter of Imran Khan but also part of an unreasonable cult surrounding one personality.
Imran Khan, because of his background in sports and his reputation of being more literate in modern (read western) norms, is considered most popular among generations X and Y who are often referred to by English word youth.

Youthias use the most profane language online.

China cutting

(in Pakistan) Practice of illegal subdividing of large lots of land into very small residential lots and selling them.
Practitioners of this activity are often influential people or groups who acquire land for their purpose legally and illegally. The practice of China cutting is considered illegal because acquired land is repurposed as small residential lots without proper zoning or government approval. For example, public parks, government owned empty lots and even graveyards and cemeteries are carved into smaller lots and then sold as residential lots.

Even some government ministers have been accused of China cutting.
