Bamiyan Governor with peace volunteer youth

Firstly, I want to appreciate & thank all the volunteer youth who with their own hands, have ‎turned a place of stone into a park of beauty.‎

Unfortunately, through years of war & conflict, weve lost some values. Weve lost self-‎sufficiency and self-belief. Everyone waits for a foreign NGO to place a stone or brick before ‎doing anything. If we work together, we can do a lot. Building this Peace Park is an example ‎that if we set our own goals & not wait on others, we can build our own country and not be ‎dependant on others. ‎

Play that Afghan flute with your own breath of truth‎
Sound that Afghan tune with your own heart of love‎
Transform that Afghan poverty with your own hand of labour

Sometimes, No to dependence on others is better for Afghan park, Afghan peace & Afghan ‎youth development
