Upon arrival to Pakistan, Chairman Pak-Turk International Educational Foundation Unal Tosur, Director Education Kamil Ture, Ebubekir Haspolat, Ahmet Efi Turk and others congratulated Ubaidullah and project supervisor Halil Baris for their outstanding achievement that has brought pride and distinction to Pakistan.
At the occasion, Unal Tosur said that we will continue to encourage Pakistani students become independent, innovative and knowledgeable so that they can become great leaders in multiple fields in the years to come. While maintaining constructive environment in and outside classroom, we are creating opportunities for students to pursue their own interests and practise skills in a variety of ways, he added.
It may be mentioned that ICPO is an international competition which brings the world's best IT students together. It also serves to promote intercultural dialogue and co-operation, through the involvement of students and teachers from many different countries.-PR
