Daily Diary (DD) - Day 96 of 2020

2028hrs:

In the context of public interest pursuit in AJK:

To institutionalise is to bring public interest activity on record on a daily basis and also build engagement with co-citizens on a daily basis.

100 engaged minds can lever an internal political process 

....

In pursuit of our dreams, we forget the most precious of our assets.


For those who cannot read the text in the FB post above:

That's very thoughtful of you...in my thoughts at the moment is my uncle Raja Amirdad of Choch in Sehnsa, who passed away earlier today, a few thousand miles away in Luton Bedfordshire UK.

Ironically, the last discussion I had with him was on Sharda.

He was a learned man who began adult life in 1950s Karachi with the Pakistani Airforce before migrating to the UK. Uncle Amirdad was a successful and even pioneering businessman in the fabrics trade in Luton. He was respected throughout the AJK diaspora in the UK and highly sought as an advisor when education was rare, particularly those of the Kotli district will not forget him.

My regret is the same as whenever any quality human being who had always been helpful in his life to all others leaves this world.

I regret not engaging more with him when it was possible.


He will be missed by many.
