Australia's High Commissioner to Pakistan, HE Peter Heyward hosted a reception for alumni of Australian educational institutions on Saturday. The High Commissioner said that he was pleased that more than 7,000 Pakistani students had chosen Australia for their studies, making Australia the second-most popular country for education among Pakistanis, after Britain.
He said he hoped that this number would continue to grow, as more Pakistani students get awareness of the high-quality educational opportunities provided by Australian institutions. Heyward told a large audience of alumni of Australian educational institutions that they were in the true sense 'ambassadors for Australia' and role models to their fellow countrymen and women who wish to follow in their footsteps.
"When you tell your friends and family about your educational and lifestyle experiences in Australia, and the quality and style of the courses you undertook, it is often the most powerful message they will receive," Heyward said. The event was also attended by visiting Australian education officials Tom Calder, Trade Commissioner, and Dr Peter Nolan, a senior education and training specialist.-PR
