<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Mr. Zakaria Usman, President FPCCI has express his serious
concern over long awaited plan of Karachi Mass Transit Project which was
planned years back with hard work involving years of surveys, studies, new
laws, relocation of people, a committed international financier, provision of
guarantees and much more. Now it need to resolve and sincere will to push it
through although this should have happened decades ago.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
He further said that Karachi Mass Transit Project was one of
the unfortunate projects in the country’s history that had faced inordinate
delays. Though several years had passed, the work on the project could not be
started due to bureaucratic hurdles.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
The President FPCCI drew the attention of the Prime Minister
Nawaz Sharif to the fact that <st1:city w:st="on">Karachi</st1:city> is 60
times larger than it was when <st1:country-region w:st="on">Pakistan</st1:country-region>
was created in 1947. It is the world’s fastest growing mega city like <st1:city w:st="on">Beijing</st1:city>, <st1:city w:st="on">Guangzhou</st1:city>, <st1:city w:st="on">Shanghai</st1:city>, <st1:city w:st="on">Lagos</st1:city>, <st1:city w:st="on">Jakarta</st1:city>, Mumbai, <st1:city w:st="on">Delhi</st1:city> and <st1:city w:st="on">Chicago</st1:city>. It has now
become the world's 7th largest metropolis with an estimated population of
nearly 20 million inhabitants. He said that <st1:city w:st="on">Karachi</st1:city>
is economic lifeline of <st1:country-region w:st="on">Pakistan</st1:country-region>
and is the country's financial capital. It is the financial and industrial
powerhouse of the country which contributes 25% of GDP. The <st1:placetype w:st="on">port</st1:placetype> of <st1:placename w:st="on">Karachi</st1:placename>
handles 60 percent of <st1:country-region w:st="on">Pakistan</st1:country-region>’s
cargo and the Karachi Stock Exchange is one of <st1:place w:st="on">Asia</st1:place>’s
most active trading money market.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
He said that 15 years back the transport system of <st1:city w:st="on">Karachi</st1:city> was satisfactory
which was consisting of circular railways, KRTC buses, private coaches and
taxies. The state owned circular railway and big buses were gradually broken
due to lack of maintenance and attention of the concerned authorities. Now
after 15 years the people are at the mercy of thousands of three wheelers and
qingqi. Rather we should have upgraded the transport system instead we dropped
it from our standard.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
He further stated that many of the potential benefits of
urbanization will be hard to realize unless there is improved city governance
and serious efforts to reduce the level of violence in <st1:city w:st="on">Karachi</st1:city>. <span class="apple-converted-space"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 10.0pt;"> </span></span>So what has already been done and what can
Nawaz Sharif Government do to give a mass transit system that any mega city
like <st1:city w:st="on">Karachi</st1:city>
must have, he urged.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
The President of the apex trade body requested the Prime
Minister Nawaz Sharif and the Governor and Chief Minister Sindh to give
priority to Karachi Mass Transit Project which needs sincerity for
implementation. This will bring much needed foreign direct investment in the
country and it will impact positively on trade and economic activities in <st1:country-region w:st="on">Pakistan</st1:country-region> and
will reduce the level of fuel consumption in public and private transportation
from one corner of the city to another corner, reflecting in reduction of
import of oil which is one of the major importing items. This will also provide
pollution free healthy environment.<o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
The Consul General of Federal Republic of Germany, Dr Tilo
Klinner gas asked the apex trade body – Federation of Pakistan Chambers of
Commerce and Industry (FPCCI) to provide him the concrete proposals required
for promoting and strengthening women entrepreneurship in Pakistan. The German
diplomat was talking to the acting President FPCCI Rukhsana Jehangir along with
Vice Presidents, Gulzar Firoz, Abdul Khaliq and Chairman Standing Committee on
Foreign Investment Shaikh Humayun Saeed, and Mir Nasir Abbas D.G International
Affairs in a meeting held here the CG also discussed matters of mutual
interests. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
The CG also informed the business representatives that he
would also hold one more session in FPCCI where he will bring the visa officer
to streamline the visa issuance which is mentioned at every step.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
The CG advised Rukhsana Jehangir to present all those
proposals which require strengthening and support to women entrepreneurial
projects from German agencies. He said that database of women stakeholders would
be collected so as to progress forward and take up the matter in Berlin.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
The Consul General Dr. Klinner was joined by Mian Abrar and
Mr. Qazi Managing Director BSAF, and President of Pakistan German Business
Forum. The acting President emphasized the need for close collaboration with
the German Consulate for enhancing bilateral trade and investment in Pakistan.
She further added that being a woman Vice President of apex trade body her
prime objective is to give support to women entrepreneurs who are mostly small
and medium, and require full support in the field of product development and
capacity building on order to attract international buyers and suppliers. She
requested the CG to get support for Agencies such as GIZ and other prominent
organizations and government agencies who can provide support in the field of
fairs and exhibitions, value addition, etc.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Vice President FPCCI, Gulzar Firoz pointed out that there
were very little German delegations visiting Pakistan and emphasized the need
for getting more trade and investment delegations. Especially after the visit
of German Foreign Minister to Pakistan and after the general elections held in
Pakistan the environment is feasible and conducive to business development. He
further added that FPCCI through Pak-German Business Council can promote
collaboration in the field of chemicals, which will eventually help the export
sector of Pakistan. Mr. Humayun Sayeed while appreciating the initiative taken
by the Vice President, said that the FPCCI and Pak-German Business Forum are
duplicating tasks by working in isolation with each other instead of work
through the Business Council of FPCCI. He suggested that we can work more
positively this way, join hands and hold a joint session since both of us have
a common goal. It was decided by the Consul General that an interactive session
should be held at FPCCI having BoD of Pak-German Business Forum and office
bearers of Pak-German Business Council PGBF would also like to take SAARC on
board when they meet at the FPCCI.<o:p></o:p></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">He said it was not the job of judiciary to run the country. The responsibility lies on the elected representatives. Responsibility of the judiciary is to ensure that the state is being run by rule of law and in accordance with the Constitutions. </span></div>

<div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-size: 15px; line-height: 20px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Present judiciary, he continued, has fostered and strengthens the democracy by ensuring rule of law and equal treatment and protection of law. For many this democratic rule was not a pleasing experience but democracy has to be given chance and now we are at the cross road, here your contribution to the society will certainly set the direction for the nation. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">He told them to use their right of franchise sensibly and honestly. ”As a nation we have travelled 66 years. Throughout this journey Pakistan was led by many dictatorial rules and intermittently for a short while by the controlled democracy. It is not the distance that many nations cover matters. What matters is the direction we have chosen to move forward. If the directions are set right we are sure to reach the destination, no matter how long the journey is otherwise we will continue to wander rudderless and we lost in the history." </span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">Addressing the young engineers, CJ Mushir Alam told them that they are fortunate to live in present day time. They are witness to a change – change from rule of tyranny to the rule of law. “You have seen in your time how just a ‘No’ of Honorable Chief Justice of Pakistan Iftikhar Mohammed Chaudhry to the unconstitutional demand of a dictator on 9th March 2007 has changed the entire scenario. Just one ‘No’ triggered whole event of change in the society, it has resurrected moral renaissance in Pakistan , it has changed the mindset of the people.” </span></div>

<div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-size: 15px; line-height: 20px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Now, he said, each member of the society is looking forward to a change for a better, prosperous and just Pakistan. “It is you the educated youth to rest the responsibility to bring the change and to turn the wheel of prosperity and bring into being justice, fair and peaceful society; where life and liberty of every citizen is protected, all are treated equally and have an equal opportunity to grow and where rule of law reign supreme."</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<b>By Abdul Qadir Qureshi <span style="font-family: Tahoma; font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<b>(Pakistan News & Features
Services)</b><span style="font-family: Tahoma; font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Prevention is
considered the best way to avoid the rare ‘brain eating’ disease Naegleria
Fowleri, which has already claimed as many as 10 lives in a matter of just a
few months in Pakistan’s most populous city of Karachi.<span style="font-family: Tahoma; font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Prevention is the
key in this case because the mortality rate of the disease is extremely high.
It has to be ensured that the water supply is chlorinated and the citizens are
aware about the precautionary measures.<span style="font-family: Tahoma; font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Abstaining from all
water-related activities can prevent Naegleria infections, but for many people,
this simply is not an option. There are other things people can do.<span style="font-family: Tahoma; font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
It’s strongly
recommended to avoid swimming in still, warm, brackish water that has loose
bottom sediment. Jumping or diving into the same type of water is also to be
avoided. The brain-eating amoeba is often caught through swimming in infected
water.<span style="font-family: Tahoma; font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Wearing a nose clip
or holding your nose if you jump or dive into relatively warm water lakes,
rivers, pools or other similar bodies of water is advised since Naegleria
Fowleri is transmitted by contaminated water entering the nose. It cannot be
passed from person to person, however.<span style="font-family: Tahoma; font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
People are warned
to avoid getting water too deep into their nostrils and make sure their water
supply is properly treated. Those with symptoms are urged to seek help
immediately without wasting any time.<span style="font-family: Tahoma; font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
The highest
incidence of this disease occurs in the hot summer months in children and young
adults, with males having the highest incidence of disease.<span style="font-family: Tahoma; font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Naegleria Fowleri,
which has a fatality rate of more than 98%, infects people when contaminated
water enters the body through the nasal membranes and destroys brain tissues.
Symptoms are initially very mild, including a headache, stiff neck, fever and
stomachache. Death usually occurs five to seven days after infection.<span style="font-family: Tahoma; font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Naegleria Fowleri
is an amoeba that lives in fresh water and soil. The organism goes through
three stages in its life cycle: cysts, flagellates, and trophozoites. It is the
trophozoite form that causes human disease.<span style="font-family: Tahoma; font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Naegleria are
‘thermophilic’ meaning that they prefer warmer water. However, the cysts are
able to survive for months in very cold water. Thus, Naegleria infection is
found both in tropical and temperate climates.<span style="font-family: Tahoma; font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

Although there are
many species of Naegleria, including Naegleria gruberi, only Naegleria fowleri
causes human infection. There are other free-living amoebas that cause human
disease, including Acanthamoeba.<span style="font-family: Tahoma; font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

The organism was
officially discovered in Australia in 1965 by Dr M Fowler and Dr R Carter
although it’s believed to have occasionally infected humans for centuries.
Fortunately, humans are rarely infected with Naegleria fowleri.<span style="font-family: Tahoma; font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

The disease was first reported to have
surfaced in Karachi, the commercial hub of the country, in 2006 but this year's
outbreak has been deadlier making the citizens more concerned.<span style="font-family: Tahoma; font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
The awareness campaigns by the concerned
authorities can help immensely in combating the deadly disease. The NGOs as
well as the government sector should mobilize all their resources in spreading
the precautionary measures that could save precious lives.<span style="font-family: Tahoma; font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>KARACHI / </b><b>SEOUL, April 02, 2012</b> – Fourteen of LG
Electronics’ (LG) 2012 products were recognized by the red dot design awards
for their excellence in the field of design. A panel of 30 independent judges
considered over 4,500 products from 1,800 manufacturers and designers in nearly
60 countries. In all, LG took 12 red dot design awards as well as two honorable

<div class="Default" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">LG’s success at the 2012 red dot design awards
follows the 14 awards the company received among the 2,923 competing entries at
the iF (International Forum) design award earlier in the year.<span style="color: #1f487c; font-size: 11pt;"> </span>LG Optimus 2.0, an Android-based smartphone interface, was recognized
for its unique user interface design. LG was also recognized for being
environmentally responsible in designing the MACHJET printer’s packaging using
pulp molded recycling buffer material. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="Default" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">“LG’s philosophy is that every LG product
incorporates user experience in its design,”

ultimate philosophy to incorporate designs that work but also evoke some
emotional response.” <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;"><b>By Abdul Qadir Qureshi</b></span>
<span style="font-size: small;"> </span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><br />
“The establishment of Sir Syed University of Engineering and Technology (SSUET)
is a unique achievement of Aligarh Muslim University Old Boys’ Association
(AMOUBA) which has been made possible by Z.A. Nizami, President AMUOBA and Chancellor
SSUET.”</span>
<span style="font-size: small;"> </span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><br />
These remarks came from Dr. Abdullah, a Pakistani scientist settles in the US
and now on a visit to Karachi, after a meeting with Chancellor Nizami, on
December 28.</span>
<span style="font-size: small;"> </span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><br />
Dr. Abdullah, also an Aligarian and a Trustee of Aligarh Alumni Association,
USA, described the SSUET as a realization of the meaning of Aligarh Movement.</span>
<span style="font-size: small;"> </span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><br />
He informed the Chancellor that Aligarh Alumni Association USA is deeply
involved in community services and has been supporting some 225 students
studying in Aligarh University and also supporting about 15 educational
institutions as a mission of Sir Syed Khan – the promotion of cause of
education.</span>
<span style="font-size: small;"> </span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><br />
He reiterated that SSUET is a unique achievement and one could find a very rare
example of establishment of such universities by an association and its credit
goes to Mr. Nizami.</span>
<span style="font-size: small;"> </span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><br />
Chancellor Nizami informed the visiting scientist, who served in NASA and
General Electric for many years, that during his lifetime, Sir Syed, the great
educationist and reformer was told to name Aligarh University after his name
but he refused and said that only after his death an institution could be named
after his name if anyone felt that he had done something for propagating the
cause of education and Muslims at large and it was after 6 years of his death
that this University came into being as Sir Syed University.</span>
<span style="font-size: small;"> </span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><br />
He informed Dr. Abdullah that SSUET today has 6000 students on its roll besides
some 200 doing Masters and Ph.D. Besides, there were 3000 students in the
Aligarh Institute of Technology and another 1500 admitted in the Continuous
education Programme.</span>

The areas surrounding the Expo Centre are buzzing with activity and
there’s a lot of noise inside three halls since morning as the 7th
Karachi International Book Fair (KIBF) 2011 was opened to the public at
the designated time of 10 am on December 16.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjIS4zBLF2IX9qp14Zj_JjEFMcRa7kDOFWCTmaPu-nAH1uxMb1qKyJkGi4PLqUFcZ2UJ4qrqvSOx3bUb3N3CiE2fyTSQ1qK0_bTRy-Xn_p71mKJhTITUt85WWok8lRzzllfJgRxwMDXcr6W/s1600/KIBF+Logo.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5686655512997254082" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjIS4zBLF2IX9qp14Zj_JjEFMcRa7kDOFWCTmaPu-nAH1uxMb1qKyJkGi4PLqUFcZ2UJ4qrqvSOx3bUb3N3CiE2fyTSQ1qK0_bTRy-Xn_p71mKJhTITUt85WWok8lRzzllfJgRxwMDXcr6W/s200/KIBF+Logo.jpg" style="cursor: hand; float: left; height: 152px; margin: 0px 10px 10px 0px; width: 200px;" /></a>
The stalls have been tastefully decorated and there has been
considerable rush of people of all ages from the moment the gates were
opened on a Friday morning on which life generally is slow in Karachi.<br /><br />There
were students, clad in uniform, as well as teachers and professionals
who not only visited the various stalls but also availed the opportunity
of purchasing books in comparatively less crowded environment as more
people are expected to pour in during the weekends.<br /><br />The officials
and volunteers of the KIBF are there at the reception area to greet and
facilitate the visitors. The KIBF Convener, Owais Mirza Jamil, and the
Chairman of the Pakistan Publishers & Booksellers Association
(PPBA), Aziz Khalid, are supervising all the arrangements with the
assistance of their team members.<br /><br />A record number of 290 stalls
have been set up in the KIBF 2011 which promises to become the largest
event of its kind in Pakistan. </div>
