just want to tell you that I am truly inspired by what you have done and is doing for the people of Pakistan and Afghanistan. Not many people in this world can do what you are doing, you are a indeed a hero.
Last but not least, to the people like Sarfraz Khan, Faisal Baig and many more, devoting their time and effort at Central Asia Institute, you guys are equally honorable too!
Keep up the good work!
