About Me

My name is Muhammad  Basharat.

I am a Student of MBA In Finance from BAHRAIN UNIVERSITY.

 I love Pakistan because it is the land of our national heroes. My country is the result of their long period of strife and struggle. Among them Sir Syed Ahmad Khan, Quaid-i-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah and Allama Iqbal are worth mentioning.

love Pakistan, have done so throughout my life, and will love it forever.

Pakistan belongs to its people and not to the bunch of rotten corrupt politicians that have come and gone. Pakistan has been resilient enough to withstand the onslaught of corruption year after year for 60 years running, watching one tyrant after another make his own heaven on earth, even then my country withstood the onslaught and continued to serve its people.

Believe in Pakistan like never before and boldly say ""Pakistan Zindabad""

Best OF LUCK

Hundreds of Cape Flats children took to the streets of Langa - to show off their cricket skills at the finals of the annual street cricket tournament.

The aim of the tournament was to develop cricket in the communities and unearth talented youngsters.

Brad Bing, the managing director of organisers Sporting Chance, believes the participants will also learn skills they can use off the cricket pitch.

The final yesterday was the culmination of six weeks of matches involving 3 000 children from areas such as Gugulethu, Khayelitsha, Nyanga, Elsies River, Mitchells Plain and Ocean View.

Provincial MEC for Education Donald Grant believes that involvement in sport is the key to the development of these children.
