Pakistan day was celebrated in the Embassy of Pakistan, Kabul, with great enthusiasm and national fervor to commemorate the passage of historical Lahore Resolution on March 23, 1940 which played a vital role in determing the destination of the Muslims of sub-continent. The Pakistan Day ceremony started with national anthem and hoisting of flag by the Ambassador.

Addressing the participants, he highlighted the historical significance of the day and paid tributes to the founding fathers who had rendered immense sacrifices for achieving a separate homeland. He said that the Pakistan's Resolution of 23rd March 1940 laid the foundation stone of an independent country.

He also paid homage, in his address, to the Father of Nation, Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah, whose relentless struggle led to the creation of Pakistan on August 14, 1947. The ceremony was attended by members of Pakistani community including educationists, engineers, doctors, senior executives and businessmen.

This will revolutionize Afghanistan's economy as it means linking up with SinoPak corridor. We need to build a big dry port in Peshawar for screening, warehousing and transportation. Slowly we need to extend the motorway to Russia.

This will also take out the Indian element in Afghanistan as Pakistan will be directly contributing to Afghanistan's economy all the way through Central Asia / Russia. Good plan indeed, more business, less extremism and better relations and growth for both the countries!

More integration between the two states is needed.

I have been on this road and it is really awful. Had to go with some NGO in their big hummer-like car and it was still quite unpleasant ride. Hundreds, if not thousands, trucks and cars go through this road daily. This motorway is far more beneficial than with the likes of like Sialkot-Lahore.
