President of Dubai Diplomat Business Club and former Ambassador of Pakistan, Javed Malik has said that Pakistani women are bringing pride for the entire nation through their hard work and dedication. He was expressing these views during a special ceremony to Honor Pakistani Doctor Sarah Saeed Khurram, who was awarded the Rolex Enterprise Award as an Associate Laureate at an impressive ceremony in Dubai.
The Rolex Awards form part of Rolex’s Perpetual Planet initiative supporting individuals seeking to find solutions to humankind’s most pressing challenges. Dr Sarah Saeed was recognized for helping to reach thousands of patients in her country’s medically under-served communities by connecting them with home-based female doctors via an innovative, low-cost, tele-medicine (e-health) network.
While appreciating Dr Sarah for her accolade, Javed Malik said that this international award for a Pakistani women doctor, once again proves that women in Pakistan are not only actively participating in every walk in life with their male counterparts, but also achieving excellence and recognition at a global scale. He further added that education is the only pathway to success, and as a society we must ensure that access to quality education should be made affordable for every Pakistani citizen across the country.
