[Aspen]

ISLAMABAD: The Egyptian embassy in Islamabad has expressed interest in strengthening cooperation between Pakistan and Egypt in areas of cyber security, science, technology and innovation (STI), and education through the Commission on Science and Technology for Sustainable Development in the South (Comsats).

Discussions about potential collaboration in these areas and matters of international importance were held during a meeting, at the Egyptian embassy, between Ambassador of Egypt to Pakistan Dr Tarek Dahroug and Comsats Executive Director Dr S. M. Junaid Zaidi, and his team, along with Egypt’s Deputy Head of Mission (DHM) Ibrahim Said Ibrahim.

The ambassador was given a detailed briefing about Comsats’ operations, which are focused towards bringing peace and development in the Global South. Comsats has forged partnerships globally and launched programmes in the fields of health, education, internet services, climate change and sustainability, in line with the United Nations 2030 Global Agenda. Egypt, being one of Comsats’ founding member states, has participated and benefitted from several scientific programmes, including capacity-building events, scholarships, and scholarly exchanges.

Dr Zaidi proposed the establishment of Comsats University in Egypt’s new administrative capital and offered assistance in formulating the country’s policy in technology. It was also suggested that a virtual cell to discuss policies for STI after Covid-19 could be created by the Ministry of Science and Technology and Egypt.

Dr Dahroug’s response towards most proposals was positive; he was, at the end of the meeting, extended an invitation to visit Comsats University Islamabad (CUI).

Although the DAWN headline says Cyber Security but I have been saying this for really long time. Pakistan needs its own NSA and that should not be limited or only focused on monitoring social media and tapping phone and whats app calls. But also to launch cyber attacks on enemies infrastructure and even blowing and obliterating the infrastructure of enemy whether it's electrical grids or nuclear plants or banking system or others.

I am sure Pak military is doing this without fuss, no state today can say its defense is full proof without expertise in Cyber warfare and Cyber Security.

These Arab countries are American stooges. They have never been friends to Pakistan.
Get the longest bargepole you can find and keep it between them and us.

Not only this brother, I have for weeks after attacks on Iran had expressed my concerns that Pakistan could be attacked soon by its enemies. Nobody is paying attention to it. But this could be a top priority.
China has massive knowledge in the field. We should start acting in this field and do the needful.
