I am honoured and humble to express my feelings and convey a message for the Pakistani community living in Australia to commemorate the 70th Anniversary of Independence of Pakistan. It is indeed an honour for me to serve the people and represent the Government of Pakistan in Australia.
This day reminds us of the efforts of our elders and vision of our leaders that culminated into creation of a country and a nation called Pakistan. It also creates strong vibes for all of us, equally among the young and the elderly, to uphold the noble ideals which were set by our elders during the independence movement. It is now our duty to strive and struggle for achieving the ideals and vision of our elders who sacrificed their life, property during the fight for a separate homeland for us where we could live in peace and prosper on the basis of fairness.
While celebrating this day with special zeal and passion, it is imperative for us to reflect upon our progress during these years of independence. We should not celebrate our success but also recognize the weaknesses and pledge to strive to overcome the threats faced by our country with unity and integrity.
On this auspicious occasion, the Mission is organizing a "Flag Hoisting" ceremony at the Pakistan House for the community to pay tributes to our national heroes.
In the end I must pray that may Allah provide us the courage and show us the right path to achieve the objectives of the creation of Pakistan and strengthen our country and protect it from all threats. May Allah also enable us to utilize the energy and resolve to capitalize on our strength to capture the opportunities in front of us.
I wish a very happy Independence Day to our community living in Australia.
Pakistan Zindabad, Pakistan Paindabad.
