‘When we went to get sponsors, we were laughed at, and people said we should do better things. They did not believe in us, they thought we could never make it,’ Mohammad Tashfeen, a student of NUST, said. Pakistan may be a developing country, but the amount of talent we have in our young generation is always underestimated, which is resulting in ‘brain drain’. If these children are not given proper focus in due time, it will not only have a negative effect on their individuality, but will also be a huge loss for Pakistan as a rising nation.

sad state of affairs - we lack self-belief… considering the quality of institutions like NUST and GIKI, why wouldn’t businesses be willing to provide some support? Also, where’s the government funding when it comes to projects like these which surely improve the country’s profile internationally?
