PFLC 2013 – There Is A Long Way To Unity In Diversity

February 27th, 2013

Once again, this year I was in Oxford to take part in the Pakistan Future Leaders’ Conference (PFLC 2013) organized by Oxford University Pakistan Society. It was my third trip to my favorite city in England for the same purpose. Just like past, this year’s trip was full of heated debates, networking with some new and some old people, exchange of ideas, and inhaling the chilled air of oxford that had flying snowflakes in it. The Friday afternoon started with the guided tour of the Oxford city and the tour ended at the Oxford Town Hall where opening ceremony took place. Presence of Malala Yusufzai‘s father was another feature of the ceremony and it was somehow better than the eighteen and a half pages long speech by Mr. Gardezi Deputy High Commissioner.

At House of Commons with Najam Sethi, and Delegation from Pakistan at the opening ceremony of PYLC 2012

Youth is the future of any nation, and that is why sensible and visionary nations invest in the youth to reach the bright future. On the other side, youth can help nations to reach the national goals using its natural passion. NUPSA (National Union of Pakistan Students and Alumni) is an organization that is working to unite youth for the betterment of both Pakistan and the youth of the country. Pakistan Young Leaders’ Conference (PYLC) is the flagship event of NUPSA that takes place every year in Pakistan as well as UK. Last weekend PYLC 2012 took place in London where students and alumni of over 30 universities of UK took part. The agenda of the conference was to discuss problems Pakistan facing in the fields of Legal affairs, Health, Interior Affairs, Foreign Affairs, Media Affairs, Finance, and Education. A delegation from Pakistan also joined the conference as an observer.

PYLC – Day 2 & 3

February 16th, 2011

This weekend was dedicated to the issues of Pakistan and the debates on them, which took place in Pakistan Youth Leadership Conference at Oxford University. I was there to represent Committee For Interior Affairs. There were many other committees as well, Finance, Foreign, Education, Legal, Environment, Health, and Women Empowerment. Women Empowerment is the new addition to the committee list of PYLC. It was a three-day event and day one I have already covered in my previous blog post.

On the morning of Saturday, Allah Almighty was very kind to us as we were enjoying a very fine weather that was very different from the usual weather of Oxford. Members of all the committees were heading to the respective venues for the discussion on the issues regarding their committees. Committee of Interior Affairs reached Harris lecture hall. That was the place where almost all of us were disconnected from the world outside, as there were no mobile signals, no access to the internet. In such environment, Chair Adnan Rafique and Co-Chair Tuba Omer started the session. Our topics were The Balochistan Issue, Domestic Terrorism, and Ethnic Violence in Karachi. We covered the first two topics on that day in two sessions. During one session, Mr. Imtiaz Gull gave a talk about the Balochistan issue, and in second session, Dr. Haider Ali of ANP joined us. About Dr. Haider I must say that he is among a very few sensible and intellectual politician that I have ever met.
