Laghari, Chairman Higher Education Commission.

The Chairman congratulated them on their selection and advised them to make a mark for Pakistan in the gathering of 570 international students from over 60 countries who would be attending the event. He encouraged them to glean useful information regarding higher studies and to contribute positively, be it clinical or research in their choice of profession.

‘Youth are our only hope for the future’, said Dr. Laghari, ‘only the youth can fill the leadership vacuum that is apparent in most professions. After your return, endeavour to maintain the momentum and drive to excel, ’ he said.

Young scholars are selected in a transparent manner and on merit for participation in the event. Previous scholars have earned a good name for Pakistan and every year students from Pakistan are welcomed warmly.

The purpose of these annual meeting which began in 1951 is to create knowledge though interaction of talented young scholars with Nobel Laureates.
