3,000 Afghan Nationals Awarded Scholarships in Pakistan

That was a good gesture from us if someone genuinely wants to study than we should help him.

BUT! we should've helped our own people first we've done a lot for these snakes and all we get is disappointment, hate, abuses, labels of terror supporter etc so in my opinion this is just a waist and we've haven't learned anything.
If the Afghanistanis say we have done nothing for them, then we can prove them wrong.
Look how much we are helping them.

Their love for india and their hatred for us has blinded those thankless people/snakes so you can try that but you will just waste your time.

We are hosting the Afghanistani refugees many have intermarried with Pakistanis.

You really can't beat Pakistan when it comes to influencing Afghanistan.

Very generous. I would argue too generous, especially considering recent political events. We should be very limited with how much more generosity we show them after this. Let them reciprocate and show us some respect as well.
 
. . .
Agreed. InshAllah it will exert influence.
Yes, Insh'Allah we will have that influence. Afterall we share the Pathan population and a large border with Afghanistan.

We cannot lose. There is no nation than can beat Pakistan in influencing Afghanistan.

We already have the advantage.

Well, the biggest gain we could get is if we poach the intelligent ones after they graduate ie brain drain. That too only if they're smarter than Pakistanis. There are lots of very smart Pakistanis, so the bar is high.

But I maintain that we now need to see them show us respect. We've been too nice to them, and we've only been met with animosity. Let's see how this plays out.

You are right, brother.
We should aim for the middle class and upper middle class of Afghanistanis to have the most influence with them.

If we are Muslim, we believe in charity, we strongly believe that if we do charity, Allah bless the society more.. if we become stingy the rizq is reduced..a very simple principle.
