Pakistan-Japan friendship goes a long way down the history lane. They have stood by each other through many a thick and thin. Both share cultural commonalities despite linguistic variations. Pluralism, respect for relations, compassion, sensitivity, respect for elders, love for one another, loyalty to organization and care for honor remain hallmarks of Japanese society.

The above views were advanced by SU Vice Chancellor Prof Dr Fateh Muhammad Burfat in his presidential address at one-day International Conference on 'Post War Economic Development of Japan: Learning Areas for Pakistan' organized by SU Area Study Centre Far East and South East Asia in sponsorship with Japanese Consulate Karachi and Pakistan-Japan Intellect Forum at Senate Hall of the Vice Chancellor Secretariat; wherein Japanese Consul General in Karachi Toshikazu Isomura was the Chief Guest in addition to two keynote speakers i.e. Iqbal Burma, President Pakistan Japan Intellect Forum and SU Prof Dr Hamadullah Kakepoto.

Dr Burfat further said that 68 Percent of Japanese people served in services sector; treating work as worship. "What has brought Japan to the zenith of success, development and prosperity is their tenacity, perseverance, commitment, love for land and unprecedented loyal work ethics", Dr Burfat asserted.

The Vice Chancellor thanked CG Isomura for bringing the event to SU, eulogizing SU-ASCFESEA Director Mukesh Kumar Khatwani and team upon successfully organizing the national moot. Consul General of Japan in Karachi and the seminar Chief Guest Toshikaza Isomura said that Japan had virtually been devastated in 1945 in the wake of World War II; yet, like Sphinx it rose from the raze to its current bewildering economic height and glory.
