(1/3) The biggest asset of Pakistan lies in universities. Today, over 45,000 faculty members at over 193 accredited universities across the country educate approx. 1.4 million students. In the last ten years #Pakistan has produced a total of 14151 PhD scholars with..

@fsherjan
(2/3)...11,991 students completing their degrees from local universities. However, despite quality research being published every year in such significant numbers, hardly any of them gets 'converted' into tangible products and add to the economy.

@StartupGrindPK
(3/3) If the #education sector has to play its role up to its full potential, the #commercialization of research is a must.

My two cents.

From cricket to philanthropy to politics, The Great Khan established himself as a people’s leader. Kaptaan, as he is more fondly known nationwide, is a man who has set standards of dreaming big, managing failure & unmatched resilience.

May it be the 1992 World Cup or @SKMCH, @ImranKhanPTI’s actions for 🇵🇰 have always spoken louder than words. When it came to building SKMCH, it was his empathy that drove him.

While the World Cup united the entire nation, the campaign to build SKMCH gave it a common purpose.
When he decided to enter politics, it was to push his ppl towards their full potential - something he had always done with his teams.

One thing he knows how to do better than anyone else is the ability to make the masses ask the right questions.

The global blockchain market is growing fast & it is expected to grow from USD 3.0B in 2020 to USD 39.7B by 2025 at an impressive CAGR of 67.3% during 2020–2025. The global fintech market has also significantly grown over the past 2 years & so is the case in Southeast Asia. (1/n)
2) Thanks to the increased application of blockchain & cryptocurrency in the region.
With a total pop. of 570M, a young demographic & high Internet usage, Southeast Asia (SEA) is promising for companies & investors in blockchain & crypto.

#Blockchain
3) The use of blockchain in SEA has certainly come far ahead from the time when the technology was seen as another speculative commodity or a mere passing fad.

Today, the application of decentralized finance (DeFi) is under the limelight.

China is a superpower, economic & political, & also Pak’s time-tested neighbouring friend. By mutually beneficial cooperation, which creates a win-all situation, without putting either at a disadvantage, both 🇵🇰 & China will gain from China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC).(1/n)
2. Cooperation is a key concept in the global economic world today. The world GDP values $87.8T (2019). However, this has been marked by intricacies. China’s economy has a 16.3% share of the global GDP (pre-COVID), second only to the United States.
3. The trade war between the 2 economic giants further intensified to get deeper control. This made @Lagarde, the previous managing director of the @IMFNews, to urge de-escalation of trade disputes as it would trigger an economic slowdown.

Universities play a vital role in developing a nation. It's in environments like these that the future is nurtured. Extra attention needs to be given to the infrastructure, faculty & research.
With over 185 Universities across 4 provinces, here's what they're doing for us.
2. The oldest institute in Pakistan is @gculahore. Established in 1864, it obtained a full University status in 2002.
Notable alumni include Allama Iqbal & Dr. Abdus Salam whose genius changed the world as we know it.
The legacy of this institute has had a lasting impact.
3. But, how do we make this impact sustainable & long-lasting?
The learning has to compound & be taught as values to the young minds that are walking the same halls as those who came before them.
علمی درسگاہ خواہ کالج ہو یا یونیورسٹی, تعلیم و تربیت دونوں ہی لازم و ملزوم ہیں.

US-Afghan relations have gone through turbulent phases starting from the early 1950s.

Now, the latest peace talks signal a hopeful conclusion by 2021.
Here's a comprehensive look at all that has happened in the last 70 years & how Pakistan's role has changed over time.
2. As the cold war began b/w the Soviet Union & US, Afghanistan became important.

US-Afghanistan contact increased during the Cuban Revolution b/w 1953 & 1959. The Soviet Union was supporting Cuba's Fidel Castro & the US was focusing on Afghanistan for its strategic purposes. ImageImageImageImage
3. The focus was to counter the spread of communism into South Asia & the Persian Gulf.

In 1953, Richard Nixon (US VP at the time) made an official diplomatic visit to Kabul.

In 1958, PM Daoud Khan became the 1st Afghan to speak before the United States Congress in Washington ImageImageImage

Pakistan was made by the sacrifices of countless brave men, women & children. Among them is the blind, unwavering support of a sister who stood beside her brother like an iron wall.

Fatima Jinnah reflects the strength of our women.

But, what are we doing to them in return?
2. The appalling stats that represent a fraction of the cruelty that’s taking over our streets are a result of a systematic failure.
But, these stats don't represent their potential, it shows our inability to protect and support them.
3. Women are leading different industries in & out of Pakistan each day.

Post partition, Fatima Jinnah worked tirelessly to keep the vision alive & her presidential election was the 1st by a woman in a post-colonial Muslim society.

From that to where we are today is a long fall
