The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, “No one eats better food than what he earns by the labor of his own hands. Indeed God’s Prophet David, peace be upon him, used to eat from the labor of his own hand.” [Bukhari]

There
are many examples in the history where
nations rose from ashes and rebuilt
themselves through shear determination,
hard work and faith. We believe that
Pakistan too can overcome the multitude
of it's problems if we all accept the
challenge and rise to the occasion.
At HDF, we have observed that people
in Pakistan are honest & hard working.
We have seen the tenacity and the will
of our people to survive under the most
difficult of circumstances. We have
seen them respond enthusiastically to
any attempt made to improve their lot.
We believe that most of these people
are capable of analyzing their problems
and finding their solutions given a
little bit of help and enabling conditions.
So the challenge for us here is to provide
these conditions. Can we come up to
this challenge? Our experience with
the expatriate Pakistani community is
that most of us are enthusiastic to
do whatever is in our power. The problem
so far has been to find a platform to
carry out this mission. We believe that
HDF provides this platform. We are trying
our best to develop an institution,
which is transparent, and responsive
to peoples' need and feelings. We need
your help and guidance to accomplish
this. We know that the challenge is
so huge that without grassroots support
it is not possible to accomplish or
sustain such an effort.
We have launched YesPakistan.com to
be a non partisan, open for all forum
for all Pakistanis to think together
and share each other's experiences,
good and bad. Let's learn from each
other to become stronger. We have searched
through 5000 Pakistani websites to compile
a unique annotated Pak Web directory.
There is an event calendar for announcements
of all Pakistani programs and activities,
news, sports, forums to discuss ideas
and a section to keep you informed about
activities in our projects. Phase one
of the site is being launched on August
14th, 2001. We are confident that with
your participation and suggestions,
our phases two and three will be even
better.
We invite everyone who believes in this
mission to join the effort and work
together to fulfill the dream of every
Pakistani. A dream of living in peace
and prosperity, with freedom to follow
their religious beliefs, and giving
their children an opportunity for a
bright future. I know we can do it,
if we follow the three golden rules;
unity, faith and discipline.
Sincerely,
Shahnaz Khan
Interim Chairperson
