Video: A Man on a Mission

By Amna Nawaz | September 30, 2009 | Pakistan

In determining their country’s future, I’ve heard Pakistanis joke that the “Three A’s “ rule: the Army, America, and Allah. The future of the country’s badly bruised education system may depend to some degree on all three, but so far it is an Army man who is making impressive strides.

In the office of Quality Schools Foundation, an education-focused, non-profit based in Islamabad, I am greeted by this very man.

In this video retired Lt. General Sabeeh Qamar-uz-Zaman talks about the current state of Pakistan’s educational system.
