A range of Pakistani products, both food and merchandise were on display and for sale at the annual United Nations International Bazaar held on Wednesday at UN Headquarters in New York. Braving cold weather and intermittent rain, a large number of people visited the bazaar, which was organised by the UN Women's Guild (UNWG) in collaboration with permanent missions accredited to the United Nations.
The event featured cuisine from around the world as well as fine arts and handicrafts. Pakistan had two stalls, one for food and other featuring clothing and a number of other hand-crafted items. The wife of UN secretary-general, Ban Soon-taek, who is a patron of the Bazaar, visited one of the Pakistani stall offering dresses and other items. She was greeted by Pakistan UN Ambassador Maleeha Lodhi. Mrs Ban praised the quality and sophistication of the Pakistani products.
