President Asif Ali Zardari has expressed the resolve to make Pakistan a fully progressive‚ democratic and educated country.
Addressing the Malala conference at the UNESCO headquarters in Paris on Monday‚ he said our education system was derailed during the dictatorial rule but the present democratic government is determined to ensure education for all.
He said dark and anti education forces attacked Malala Yousafzai who is the symbol of resilience and represents the progressive vision of Pakistan.
The President said Pakistan has rendered innumerable sacrifices in the war against terrorism. The extremist elements want to impose their agenda through use of force but with collective efforts we will foil their nefarious designs.
President Zardari said the present democratic set up is about to complete its stipulated term. It is the first time in our history that we will witness a peaceful transition to the next elected government. Democracy is the only system which can ensure prosperity and welfare of the people.
He sought support of the international community to ensure that every girls in Pakistan receives quality education and contributes towards a progressive Pakistan.
He said like democracy in Pakistan‚ we need global support for education in Pakistan. He said Pakistan has a resilient and determined nation and it needs support of the international community for helping every girls to go to school.
The President said the UN system has a crucial and central role to play in overcoming educational challenges. He said Pakistan would continue to uphold high ideals of the UN for education for all.

The results can not be seen overnight,shut up you sad case
he results cannot be seen overnight???? 5 years is not overnight you moron.
@Sajid, desi is a mentally diseased person and he does not seem to know abc of political science. Political stability precedes economic stability and Zardari at least gave 5 yrs of stable democracy and things hv started improving on economic front.
What exactly has political stabilty given Pakistan? Dictatorship has been much better for Pakistan than democracy. As long as the people are uneducated and poor, their votes will be bought. A person paying to buy votes will recuperate his/her investment by any means possible. In dictatorship there is one person/family that may be making all the money but in Pakistani style democracy its all the corrupt politicians looting every resource they can get their hand on.
Asif ali zardari is working very hard for the progress of pakistan.Our media is very biased and always give negative news.People should not critise just for the sake of it
Zardari is a very cool person, he is working hard to take pakistan out of terrorism and at the same time out of american influance as well, every body should support him.

EDUCATION MUST BE FREE— BIRTH RIGHT OF EVERY PAKISTANI KID !!!!!! BUT CORRUPT KAAFIRS HARAAMKHORS ALLHARAAMS GO GLOBETROTTING ..
It is obscene to condemn democracy outright even in its infancy. The US democracy is two hundred years old and the literacy ratio is very high. While Pakistan is just on the opposite side. We have not even one govt which completed its term without being hounded by the generals/SC duo. I do not need to remind that even the worst democracy is better than best dictatorship. There is not pure free democracy even in the US let alone in Pakistan. There is a duopoly in the US. People are forced to choose between only two parties. One has to collect billion dollars to contest presidential election. Even most senate seats require tens of millions to contest. I am not saying that the world’s oldest democracy is bad but it is still not perfect. Pakistan is in its infancy of this evolutionary process. With the current practices and traditions Pakistan can never become a perfect democracy. Just one reason women are not allowed to go out free and use their power to elect on their own so there is no question of free elections in places like FATA. Let us start walking before we run.
