Khyber Pakhtunkhwa people express solidarity with Japanese


People of tribal areas and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa have expressed solidarity with the quake and tsunami-stricken people of Japan after last week’s devastation.



Honorary Consul-General of Japan in Peshawar Nawabzada Fazle Karim Afridi told reporters on Tuesday that he received messages of people from across the Federally Administered Tribal Areas and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa expressing solidarity with the government and people of Japan in these difficult moments when natural calamities hit the Asian nation harder.

“Our people are unskilled and they offer help to the people of Japan in whatever possible,” the honorary consul-general of Japan said while speaking of Pakhtun nation’s sympathies for the people of Japan.

Afridi, however, urged the Pakistanis to stand by Japan in their hour of need. “Japan always reached out to our people when any calamity hit us. We should reciprocate in the same manner.

My appeal to the people of Pakistan will be to help the people of Japan who are brave enough to confront the destruction,” the honorary consul-general of Japan added. staff report
