- Ceremony attended by Saudi envoy to Pakistan and Brig. Al-Safwan, among others
The 46 Saudi national recruits were joined by others from Nepal, Sri Lanka, Palestine and Libya. “Cadets of the 138th PMA Long Course, 57th Integrated Course, 30th Technical Graduate Course and Grade 37 got commissioned as officers today,” Pakistan’s military media wing, ISPR, said in a statement.
The Saudi cadets will now join the Kingdom’s armed forces, a tweet by the Saudi embassy in Islamabad confirmed. The ISPR statement did not divulge any further details, such as the number of Saudi cadets participating in the program. However, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Committee, General Zubair Mehmood Hayat, recognized the most distinguished trainees by awarding them for their performance.
Congratulating the cadets on their accomplishment, he said: “You will be fortunate to command the soldiers who are known for their unflinching loyalty and sense of sacrifice. Our soldiers are known for delivering best results in the most challenging environment.”
Saudi Arabia’s ambassador to Pakistan, Nawaf bin Said Al-Malki and Brigadier Ali bin Muhammad Al-Safwan, Commander of Arar forces in Saudi Arabia, were among some of the distinguished guests who attended the ceremony.
