Celebrate 100 Years of IDA Rieu for Service Schools for the Blind & Deaf Children (1922-2022) (2022-10)

 

The Ida Rieu Welfare Association (IRWA) established in 1922, runs the oldest educational facility for the Blind and Deaf in Pakistan. In the year 2022 we will be celebrating one hundred years of our dedicated services to people with visual and hearing impairment. Lady Ida Augusta Rieu was the wife of Mr. J L Rieu Commissioner in Sindh of the British Raj who was appointed here in 1919. She devoted her life to the service of the poor and the deprived. Ida Rieu actively provided care and comfort to the blind, deaf and homeless people. Upon her passing away in 1921 the civic leaders of Sindh resolved to honour her memory by setting up an association in her name ensuring the continuation of good works she had initiated.

Over the last one hundred years, thousands of Blind and Deaf students have completed their education at Ida Rieu and greatly improved the quality of their lives and their social interactions. There are many Ida Rieu graduates successfully engaged in teaching, computer operations, music, sports, dressmaking, painting, industrial plant operations and many other respectable professions. IRWA Centenary is a tribute to all those who made it possible to empower our blind and deaf children and played a role in securing a better future for them.

What is Blindness?

Complete blindness is the inability to see anything including light while partial blindness may be a condition of cloudy vision, an inability to see shapes, seeing shadows only or having a tunnel vision. Extent of blindness varies from person to person. Common causes of blindness are birth defects and eye injuries while diseases like glaucoma, cataracts, optic neuritis, retinitis pigmentosa and tumors can also cause blindness.

What Is Deafness?

Profound deafness is the inability to hear anything even when sound is amplified. There are four levels of hearing loss: mild, moderate, severe and profound. Sensorineural deafness is a nerve damage due to which the cochlea does not work and Conductive deafness means that sound does not pass through the outer and middle ear into the inner ear. Common causes of deafness are hereditary or genetic disorders, trauma and diseases like mumps, cytomegalovirus, chickenpox, meningitis and Meniere's disease. Hearing loss hinders development of speech and language and in turn language deficit causes learning problems.

Our academic program ranges from Montessori up to Masters level. We are affiliated with the University of Karachi for our graduate and post graduate studies. On skill development we provide Auto Cad, Dressmaking, Needlework, Painting, Book Binding, Music and similar trainings. In the area of Sports we encourage our students to fully participate in all forms of sporting events. Ida Rieu's Blind

Cricket Team is well known in Pakistan for its outstanding performance over decades. Our students perform well in Martial arts such as Judo and Karate and have earned many Gold Medals. They participate with great enthusiasm in Scouting camps and annual Jamborees.

Responding to the growing need for providing education to children with visual impairment in interior Sindh Ida Rieu started a School for the Blind at Rashidabad near Tando Allah Yar in 2015. This spacious purpose-built school provides free education, boarding and lodging to children with visual impairment from all over Sindh.

75th Anniversary of the Founding of the Pakistan Institute of International Affairs (2022-8)

The Pakistan Institute of International Affairs is celebrating 75 years of its founding in the year 2022, which coincides with the 75th anniversary of the creation of Pakistan. It is the oldest think tank in Pakistan and one of the oldest in South Asia. Its roots go back in time, when the members of the Indian Institute of International Affairs, which was established in 1936 in Delhi, voted to shift it to Karachi on the eve of Partition. Khwaja Sarwar Hasan, who was a barrister, prolific writer and scholar, and was then the head of the Institute, shifted all its movable assets, including its library books and other publications to Karachi in August 1947. In this endeavour, he had the blessings of Quaid-i-Azam Mohammad Ali Jinnah. Prime Minister Liaquat Ali Khan inaugurated the Institute in Karachi, which was then the capital of Pakistan, on 26 March 1948. Its first office was located in rented premises in the iconic Frère Hall. It moved to its own historic landmark building on Aiwan-i-Sadar Road, Karachi, in 1955. The building has since been declared as protected heritage.

The Institute is an independent, non-official and not for profit organization, devoted to the scientific study of international politics, economics and jurisprudence. It has been ranked as a leading think tank of Pakistan in the Global Go to Think Tank Index of the University of Pennsylvania, United States, being placed in the top 20 think tanks in South Asia and the Asia- Pacific region.

The Institute was established by the most eminent citizens of the country, belonging to diverse professional backgrounds: Professor A. B. A. Haleem, then Vice Chancellor of Sind University, who was its first Chairman; Khwaja Sarwar Hasan, its first Secretary; Jamshed Nusserwanjee, famous philanthropist and mayor of Karachi; Shaista Ikramullah, Jahanara Shahnawaz, Dr. Ishtiaq Husain Qureshi and Dr. Mahmud Husain, members of the Constituent Assembly of Pakistan; Altaf Hussain, editor of Dawn; Mirza Mohammed Rafi, Yusuf Haroon and D. M. Malik hailing from the business community; Shahid Suhrawardy, member Pakistan Public Service Commission; Mumtaz Hasan and M. Ayub from the Ministry of Economic Affairs; Agha Shahi and A. Rashid Ibrahim belonging to the Civil Service; Hemandas Wadhwani, Adviser to the Sind Government and Mian Bashir Ahmad, an engineer by profession. Today we honour their memory and pay a tribute to their wisdom and foresight.

Since it was established, the Institute has been the vibrant hub of academic excellence in the country. It has held a stream of conferences, seminars and webinars, bringing together in discussion scholars, diplomats, members of teaching faculties, journalists, the business community and the public. Its members have been addressed by famous statesmen and jurists from all over the world. While maintaining institutional neutrality, it has given space for the expression of a range of opinions and thoughts. Its platform has been used by Pakistan's heads of state and government to make formal statements on the foreign policy of the country.

The purpose of the activities of the Institute has been not only to disseminate and transfer knowledge and research, but also to act as a bridge between policy makers and the public. For the last 75 years it has provided an independent platform for informed debate and discussion on issues of global and regional concern and Pakistan's foreign policy. It has offered an academic shelter to thousands of scholars and persons from all walks of life in Pakistan and abroad who have passed through its portals, done research in its library, and benefited from its resources.

Research on security and strategic issues and international relations, South Asia and the foreign policy of Pakistan, has been the bedrock of the Institute's academic activities. Since 1948, it has published without a break its flagship peer-reviewed quarterly, Pakistan Horizon, which is, perhaps, the oldest journal in South Asia on international relations. Pakistan Horizon is subscribed by universities and other institutions globally. It is listed on JSTOR which is the largest archive of scholarly journals in the world. It is also listed in the databases of the Library of Congress Washington and the British Library

London. The Institute has an active social media presence and maintains blog pages.

The Pakistan Institute of International Affairs has the finest specialized library on international relations and diplomacy in the country. Its holdings comprise 38,000 books, including rare publications of the pre-Partition era, and it subscribes to 100 local and foreign journals. Furthermore, since 1955, it has maintained a unique clippings service to facilitate scholars and researchers in their work.

To celebrate 75 years of its founding, the Institute is convening a Conference on 'Pakistan and the Changing Global Order' on 14 and 15 December 2022. The theme of the Conference represents the changing geopolitical scenario over the last 75 years. The first day will be devoted to global concerns, the second to Pakistan's foreign policy issues. The Conference will bring together statesmen, scholars, diplomats and practitioners of foreign policy. To mark 75 years of the universally recognized outstanding performance and achievements of The Pakistan Institute of International Affairs, Pakistan Post is issuing a commemorative postage stamp of Rs.20 denomination on 14th November, 2022

The 48th Session comes at a critical juncture for the Islamic World: the people of Palestine and Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir are being denied their inalienable right to self- determination; the rising tide of Islamophobia and hate speech threatens Muslim communities across many parts of the world; millions of our Afghan brethren risk an uncertain future at the hands of hunger and disease. Similarly, the deleterious impact of the Covid-19 pandemic is yet to be fully contained.

8. Under these circumstances, the need for Islamic solidarity and cooperation is more pressing than ever and the Muslim Ummah has pinned its hopes on the OIC to chart out a joint Islamic action on all

such wide ranging issues in the true spirit of Islamic solidarity.

9. During the course of our Chair of the OIC Council of Foreign Ministers, Pakistan will sincerely endeavor to promote unity amongst the OIC Member states, advance the cause of justice for all Islamic

people, including our Kashmiri and Palestinian brethren who are forced to live under illegal and suppressive occupations, and to achieve the mutually reinforcing goals of prosperity and development for the OIC Member States. Similarly, ensuring full and complete recovery from the effects of the Covid-19 pandemic also remains a key priority for us.

10. The proposed theme of the 48th OIC CFM, "Partnering for Unity, Justice and Development" fully encapsulates these priorities. Our overarching focus would be to build 'bridges' of cooperation and to construct 'partnerships' across the Islamic world.

11. It is also pertinent to mention that during our previous Chairmanship of the CFM in 2007-08, Pakistan led negotiations on the new OIC Charter, which was a manifestation of our conviction that the Organization must be kept attuned to the dynamic and fast-evolving needs of our times. In the same spirit, Pakistan will continue to work with other OIC Member States towards tangible and practical steps to further strengthen bonds of Islamic solidarity and cooperation.

12. We are confident that the 48th CFM would prove to be a landmark session in our combined efforts to chart a joint Islamic way forward. On our part, Pakistan remains committed to support all efforts aimed at promoting unity, brotherhood and prosperity amongst the Muslim world. On 48th Session of OIC Council of Foreign Ministers Islamabad, 22-" 23 March 2022, Pakistan Post is issuing the Commemorative Postage Stamp of Rs 20/- denomination each on March 23, 2022.

The Plaza de Cibeles is a classical symbol of Spanish art and architecture. It is a square with a neo-classical complex of marble sculptures with fountains that has become a symbol for the city of Madrid. It sits at the intersection of Calle de Alcala (running from east to west). Paseo de Recoletos (to the North) and Paseo del Prado (to the south). Plaza de Cibeles was originally named Plaza de Madrid, but in 1900, the City Council named it Plaza de Castelar, which was eventually replaced by its current name.

It is currently delimited by four prominent buildings: the Bank of Spain Building, the Palacio de Buenavista, the Palace of Linares ("Palacio de Linares"), and the Cybele Palace ("Palacio de Cibeles"). These constructions are located in four different neighborhoods from three different adjacent districts: Centro, Retiro, and Salamanca.

Over the years, Cybele Palace and her fountain have become symbolic monuments of the city. The Fountain of Cybele is found in the part of Madrid commonly called the Paseo de Recoletos. This fountain is named after Cybele, a Phrygian goddess.

70th Anniversary of the Establishment of Diplomatic Relation Between Pakistan and Japan (2022-1)

 Pakistan and Japan enjoy traditionally friendly ties characterized by mutual trust, cooperation, people-to-people contacts, cultural and civilizational linkages. Historical links between the people of the two countries date back to pre-historic times. The Gandhara and Indus Valley civilizations and cotton trade were some of the means of old contact betweeen the two countries.

2. Diplomatic relations between the two countries were established on 28th April 1952. Pakistan was among the first in few countries that ratified the Japan Peace Treaty. Unlinke majority Asian countries, Pakistan waived War Reparations due from Japan. During the 1951 San Francisco Peace Conference, Pakistan argued that Japan should be treated with respact and not with vengeance. Post War Japan's first ever Trade Agreement was with Pakistan. Pakistan was also one of the first countries that established a Trade Office in Japan (1948), while the latter also set up its earliest Trade office in Karachi that catered to the entire region. Textiles was the only industry initially allowed to operate by the US in Japan. Hence, Pakistan played a leading role in Japan's post war economic revival by exporting large amounts of cotton and jute to Japan on deferred payments. Japan in return provided us with textile machinery in lieu of our exports.

3. During the Korean War and in the Cold War, Pakistan and Japan found themselves on the same side of the divide. Within the first decade of Pakistan's independence, some 50 multinational Japanese companies had already set up their offices, mainly for trading purposes. The third overseas branch of the Bank of Tokyo was established in Karachi in 1953 and the metropolitan was also selected for opening the second office of the Japan External Trade Organization. After the US, Pakistan was the second largest trading partner of Japan, mainly catering to Japan's need for raw material, such as jute and cotton, and fulfilling over 50 percent of their requirement. During the 1960s, Pakistan occupied a prominent place in the allocation of Japanese assistance to the developing world and remained among the top recipients in the region, Japanese assistance came in the form of Yen Loan Assistance for development projects, grant assistance for social sector projects and technical cooperation for technology transfer and human resource development.

Japanese assistance was used for mega projects as well as for industrialization. Development projects of significance that were funded by Japan include the telephone exchanges throughout Pakistan, Thermal Power Station Jamshoro, Indus Highway, Kohat tunnel, Bin Qasim Thermal Power Station, the Construction Machinery Training Centre, Pakistan's first ever dedicated Children's Hospital, and countless others in the social sectors.

5. In the 1980's bilateral relations were further bolstered due to Pakistan's role in securing the withdrawal of the Soviet forces from Afghanistan and the sea lanes security through which Japan received bulk of its oil. Although bilateral relations saw a difficult phase following the nuclear tests conducted by Pakistan in 1998, the engagement at the political level continued.

6. The August 2000 visit to Pakistan by Prime Minister Yoshiro Mori signaled Japan's desire to continue highest-level engagement with Pakistan. President Pervez Musharraf visited Japan in 2000. Since 2001, Japan has also been highly appreciative of Pakistan's vital role in the War against terrorism. It also extended humanitarian assistance to Pakistan in the wake of 2005 earthquake.

7. During the visit of Japanese Prime Minister Junichiro Koizumi to Pakistan in 2005, Pakistan-Japan Joint Declaration entitled "Pakistan-Japan at a new Frontier, Towards a Renewed, Enhanced and Robust relationship" was signed. Prime Minister Shaukat Aziz visited Japan in August 2005. Recognizing the

geopolitical importance of Pakistan and appreciating its role in fighting terrorism, Japan announced further expanding strong collaboration at all levels.

8. Japan welcomed the 2007 return of democracy in Pakistan. It not only hosted the Friends of Democratic Pakistan and Donors' Conference in Tokyo in April 2009, but also pledged US$1 billion at the Conference. Japan also come forward to assist Pakistan in its flood relief and rescue operations. It announced contributions for flood relief and rehabilitation efforts at the Pakistan Development Forum in November 2010.

9. Pakistan on its part expressed its solidarity and support to the government and the people of Japan in the aftermath of the devastating earthquake and tsunami that hit Japan in March 2011. Pakistan provided two C-130 aircraft loaded with relief goods to Japan. The Pakistani community in Japan went out of its way in helping the survivors by providing them food, disposable water bottles and other goods, and voluntarily worked in the shelters to provide them relief which was greatly appreciated by the Government of Japan. During the visit of President Asif Ali Zardari to Japan in 2011, the two sides signed the Joint Statement on Japan- Pakistan Comprehensive Partnership, which provided an impetus to further bolster ties. Both the visits provided an impetus to strong bilateral ties.

10. Pakistan is now offering a Special Economic Zone to the Japanese with attractive benefits such as sole ownership, tax exemptions, repatriation of earnings and single window operations. The Board of Investment set up for this purpose is making efforts, whereas the National Industrial Parks, another organization under the Industries Ministry, is offering developed industrial estates in different provinces at very reasonable terms. Japanese businessmen as well as the Japanese government have been in discussions with their counterparts on this matter. Such combined efforts portraying public-private partnership would bring about meaningful results to attract joint ventures for Pakistan, which in turn would provide job and business opportunities to Pakistanis.

11. Moreover, Pakistan among other things is now focusing on exports of Agri products to Japan. In 2020, Pakistan became the largest exporter of dates to Japan. Pakistan's mango exports to Japan have also witnessed an exponential increase in the last two years. There is a natural complementarily between the two countries in the field of Pakistani manpower export to Japan as Japan is witnessing a shrinking population and Pakistan has a young population. The two sides have signed MoUs such as: Technical Intern Training Programme as well as Specified Skilled Workers Programme under which Pakistan foresees semi- skilled and highly skilled workers (IT Sector) making their way to the Japanese

market in the near future.

12. In September 2021, the Foreign Minister of the two countries met on the sidelines of UNGA. Pakistan in August 2021, helped in Japan's evacuation efforts from Afghanistan which has been greatly appreciated by the Japanese government. In May 2021, Prime Minister Imran Khan became the first ever Prime Minister of Pakistan to give a keynote address at the "Future of Asia" conference organized

by Nikkei Inc. Another recent milestone was the signing of the MoU on Defence Cooperation between the two countries. On the economic and trade front, Toyota Japan provided a fresh investment of USD100 million for assembling hybrid vehicles in Pakistan.

13. To mark the 70th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between the two countries in 2022, several events have been planned to be held throughout the year both in Japan and Pakistan to befittingly commemorate the years long friendship between the two countries.

On 70th Anniversary of the Establishment of Diplomatic Relation Between Pakistan and Japan, Pakistan Post is issuing the Commemorative Postage Stamp of Rs 20/- denomination on January 1, 2022.

2023-13- 2023-13- 75 Years of Establishment of Pakistan - Turkiye Diplomatic Relations (2023-13)

 The year 2022 has a special significance for Pakistan, as we celebrate the 75th anniversary of the country's independence. It is also a special occasion in our diplomatic history, as we commemorate the 75 years of establishment of diplomatic relations between Pakistan and Türkiye.

The diplomatic relations between the two countries were established soon after creation of Pakistan in 1947. Mr. Yahya Kemal Beyatli, the first Turkish Ambassador to Pakistan, presented his credentials to Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah on 4 March 1948 and Mian Bashir Ahmed, Pakistan's first Ambassador to Türkiye, presented his credentials to President Ismet Inonu in June 1949. The fraternal relations between the two peoples go back centuries and are embedded in a common religious, cultural,

linguistic, and spiritual heritage.

The legendary support provided by the South Asian Muslims to their brothers and sisters in Türkiye during its War of Independence in the early 20th Century remains immortalized in the collective memory of all Turks. Muslims of South Asia defied their colonial rulers and came out in defense of Türkiye at one of the most critical junctures of its modern history - leaving behind their homes and donating all their belongings for the Turkish cause. Pakistan's national poet, Allama Muhammad Iqbal captured in his poetry the revolutionary spirit of resistance that led to the renaissance of the Turkish nation during its War of Independence. In fact, the diplomatic relations between Pakistan and Türkiye are the extension of the same historical spirit - often articulated in motifs like "heart-to-heart relations" and, "two countries, one nation" by leadership on both sides. Both countries come to each other's support on every occasion and platforms. Pakistan and Türkiye stand with each other in pursuit of a peace, prosperity and development and against all challenges.

In recent years, in particular after the establishment of High- Level Strategic Cooperation Council (HLSCC), bilateral relations have now been transformed into strategic cooperation. This highest bilateral mechanism between two countries at the leadership level has been instrumental in forging ever-greater ties in all sectors including trade, investment, banking, health, education, agriculture, defense, science and technology and tourism.

The milestone of 75th year of diplomatic relations provides us an opportunity not only to reinforce our unwavering ties but also transmit the tradition of unmatched fraternity and solidarity between the two nations to our future generations.

To commemorate the 75th year of diplomatic relations in a befitting manner, both countries have planned a range off events. As part of these activities; Pakistan Post is issuing a Commemorative Postage Stamp to mark this historical milestone. The Commemorative Stamp bears joint logo for celebrating the year 2022 as the 75th year of establishment of diplomatic relations between Pakistan and Türkiye.

On 75 Years of Establishment of Pakistan - Türkiye Diplomatic Relations, Pakistan Post is issuing the

Commemorative Postage Stamp of Rs.20/- denomination on September 13th, 2023.

75th Death Anniversary of Father of the Nation Quaid-E-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah (2023-12)

 "Few individuals significantly alter the course of history. Fewer still modify the map of the world. Hardly anyone can be credited with creating a nation-state. Muhammad Ali Jinnah did all three". Stanley Wolpert

Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah was born on 25th December 1876. By profession, he was a lawyer but worked as a successful political leader and fought for the rights of Muslims of the sub-continent. From 1913 until Pakistan's independence on 14th August 1947, Quaid- e-Azam worked as the leader of the All-India Muslim League: He was Pakistan's first Governor-General. He was a leader who, instead of raising swords, used the weapons of unity, faith and discipline to achieve his goal. It seems like God created him for this purpose only.

He led a meaningful life, had a multifaceted personality and had numerous achievements in other domains. In fact, he excelled in a variety of roles, including: one of the greatest legal minds India produced in the first half of the 20th century; an "Ambassador of Hindu-Muslim unity; a great constitutionalist, an eminent parliamentarian; a top politician; an unyielding freedom fighter, a vibrant Muslim leader; a political strategist and, most importantly, one of the greatest nation- builders of our time. But what makes him so exceptional is that, while other similar leaders took over traditionally well-defined nations and/ championed their cause or helped them achieve freedom, he founded a nation out of an impoverished minority and provided a cultural and national home for it.

Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah inspired the World in general and South Asia in particular through his charismatic and visionary leadership. As a statesman, the Quaid led the constitutional struggle that culminated in the creation of an independent homeland for the Muslims of the Sub-Continent. The Freedom Movement is a living testimony of the political insight and sagacity of Quaid-e-Azam who adhered to the ideals of democracy and rule of law.

Unfortunately, the Quaid left for his heavenly abode soon after the creation of Pakistan. The founder of Pakistan was laid to rest on September 11, 1948. We have to continue to strive for making our country a place where people live with freedom, dignity and honor, as envisioned by the Quaid. Let us reaffirm on this day that we will devote our energies in individual and collective capacities for the betterment of our State and Society. The best way to pay tribute to the Father of the Nation is to adhere to the principles of Unity, Faith and Discipline, and to carry forward the Quaid's legacy in letter and spirit towards making Pakistan a developed and prosperous country. Jinnah dedicated his entire life to the struggle for a separate homeland for Muslims. He will always be remembered for his great vision and

highest standard of leadership.

On 75th Death Anniversary of Father of the Nation Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah, Pakistan Post is issuing the Commemorative Postage Stamp of Rs.75/- denomination & Souvenir sheet of Rs. 100/- denomination on September 11th, 2023.
