28岁的巴基斯坦青年哈姆扎·阿里（Hamza Ali）在五年前的车祸中失去了双腿 [1]。车祸后的前六个月，他陷入生活极端困难的境地 [1]。
在家乡穆尔坦，阿里求职近三年却屡屡碰壁，许多雇主因其残疾身份而拒绝雇用他 [1]。2023年，他决定迁往伊斯兰堡寻求机遇 [1]。
为了重返职场，阿里对摩托车进行了改装，并配备了手动控制装置，使他能够驾驶车辆 [1]。他随后重新激活了在食品配送平台foodpanda上的骑手账户 [1]。这一尝试获得了成功——如今阿里已成为该平台表现最优秀的配送员之一 [1]。
根据巴基斯坦2023年全国人口普查报告，该国3.1%的人口存在残疾 [1]。
Hamza Ali, a 28-year-old from Pakistan, lost both legs in a car accident five years ago but has since returned to work as a food delivery rider through custom motorcycle modifications. [1]
Following the accident, Ali faced an extremely difficult six-month period. [1] He later moved to his hometown of Multan, where he spent nearly three years searching for employment, only to be rejected by employers due to his disability. [1] In 2023, he relocated to Islamabad and reactivated his account with the delivery platform Foodpanda. [1]
To resume riding, Ali adapted his motorcycle with manual control devices, allowing him to operate the vehicle and perform deliveries. [1] His efforts have paid off, and he has become one of the platform's top-performing delivery workers. [1]
The achievement reflects broader challenges for people with disabilities in Pakistan, where a 2023 national census reported that 3.1 percent of the population has a disability. [1]
