Rotary Peace Fellow. UNC Chapel Hill. Came home.

“Olympians before us ended up as waiters and rickshaw drivers.”

@SKhanAthlete on why social media is the only infrastructure Pakistan’s athletes have.

No federation. No government support. Just followers - competing with dancers and influencers for sponsorships.

Eid Mubarak from all of us at @LetsBuildPK & @Campaignistan! 🇵🇰🌙

May this Eid al-Adha strengthen the bonds of unity, compassion, and generosity in our communities.

Here's to building a Pakistan filled with peace and love - one conversation at a time.

[Let Us Build Pakistan #LUBP @LetsBuildPK]

Every government office took @SKhanAthlete from room to room for 3 hours and said “we don’t understand what you want.”

@AseefaBZ first question: “What can we do for your sport?”

That’s the difference between a generation that gets it and one that doesn’t.

She climbed mountains out of anger.

Lost her father. Survived abuse. Ended a call centre shift and found a paragliding course.

Now a peak in Pakistan carries her name.

.@sherryrehman is saying what Pakistan’s boardrooms don’t want heard.

ESG brochures. No shop floor compliance. 1% mandatory CSR - companies pushed back to the ministries.

The gap between the report and the reality is where Pakistan loses.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

[Farhad Jarral @FarhadJarralPK]

We celebrate Pakistan’s STEM talent every year at the @ISBScienceFest.

Today, we’re using our voice for one student who earned her place on the world stage - and is being stopped by a visa queue.

Jeena Ali. ICS Part 1. Punjab College, Lahore.
1 of only 12 finalists worldwide at the International Research Olympiad at Harvard.

The only Pakistani in that group.

Her college is covering her ticket and visa costs. Her parents are ready. Her invitation letter from Harvard is in hand.

Her visa interview? Scheduled for next year. The competition is June 19–21.

We ask the relevant authorities to fast-track her appointment. Pakistan cannot afford to let bureaucracy bury its brightest.

📎 Letters attached.

Quaid envisioned a 🇵🇰 built on justice, equality, and rule of law.
