The embassy of state of Kuwait in Pakistan on Wednesday organised an official reception to mark the 57th anniversary of its Independent Day and the 27th anniversary of liberation day. Minister for Federal Education and Professional Training, Muhammad Baligh-ur-Rehman was the chief guest who was received by Ambassador of Kuwait Nassar Abdul Rehman J Almutairi. The event brought together politicians, ambassadors of foreign countries, representatives of international organizations in the country and public figures.
The education minister hailed political relations between Pakistan and Kuwait, saying Kuwait has always supported Pakistan's stance in international organizations, adding relations between the two countries are progressing steadily.
In a message on the occasion, Nassar Abdulrahman J Al-Mutairi said, "I would like to avail this opportunity to extend my congratulations to Sheikh Sabah Al-Ahmad Al-Jaber Al-Sabah, the Amir of the State of Kuwait, Sheikh Nawaf Al-Ahmad Al-Jaber Al-Sabah, the Crown Prince, and the government and people of the State of Kuwait. I pray to Almighty Allah to maintain Kuwait's security and safety and further progress and prosperity."
He said the deep-rooted historical relations with Pakistan, its leadership and its people, which are based on respect and cooperation in all fields, and which stood in front of fluctuations and all climates, and considered a model of relations between the two countries.
The ambassador said their relations are further deepened by the high profile visits. On March 7, 2017, Pakistan and Kuwait agreed to enhance bilateral relations in diverse fields. The understanding came at a meeting between former Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif and Amir of Kuwait Sheikh Sabah Al Ahmad Al Jaber Al Sabah in Kuwait City. The two leaders discussed matters of mutual interest. The Kuwaiti government also lifted a ban on visas for Pakistani citizens which had been imposed six years ago in the meeting.
The then prime minister had underlined the need for enhancing economic cooperation between Pakistan and Kuwait in industrial, agriculture, energy and defence sectors. He urged the Kuwaiti investors to take advantage of the immense economic opportunities available in Pakistan.
