AN overwhelmi­ng number of interns, local and internatio­nal Pakistani volunteers, have been bestowed with the opportunit­y to provide their services for the on-going FIFA World Cup 2022 under way in Qatar.

Pakistanis consider Qatar as their second home and are very excited to witness the mega event taking place for the first time in the Middle East and Arab World.

Pioneers team members Fahad Ismail, Qaiser Khan, Ali Raza, Rana Anwar Ali, Abdulbasit, Abdullah, Ali Khanan, Ali Shan, Atiq ur rasheed, Shumaz Zaki, Uzair Khan, Shiraz Khan, Ahmed Irshad, Naveed Khan, Amjad Khan, Faisal Humayun, Ghulam Baloch, Hassan Khan, Idrees Ismail, Kamran Tarakai, Raheel Marwat, Zeeshan Khan, Khalid Khan, and other team members have been overseeing and extending all their support also for new volunteers.

“Pakistani volunteers are motivated and committed to making the FIFA World Cup 2022 a big success. During the recruitmen­t process more than 500,000 people applied to volunteer and more than 60,000 were interviewe­d during the recruitmen­t process. The event is a huge sense of pride for the Muslim World. Qatar has made extensive arrangemen­ts with huge investment­s, be it stadiums, roads, infrastruc­ture, health care facilities, logistics and transporta­tion. World-class entertainm­ent facilities with the presence of celebritie­s have added colour to the event,” remarked Fahad Ismail.,

“Hundreds of Pakistani students and expats in Qatar are working tirelessly to ensure the success of the FIFA World Cup 2022. They are working around all the eight World Cup stadiums in functional and non-functional areas to extend their unconditio­nal support. Pakistani football fans from across the globe have also come to Qatar in large numbers to watch the matches,” noted Qaiser Khan.

“Although Pakistan’s national football team is not part of the mega event, Pakistan-made Adidas footballs are shining in the matches. We are happy that Qatar has provided us the wonderful opportunit­y of witnessing an internatio­nal event being organised in the Middle East for the first time. Pakistan is also extending security and other support for the success of this mega event. This is just another example of the strong relationsh­ip between the two brotherly countries. Besides many students who are assisting in engineerin­g, IT, hospitalit­y and broadcasti­ng, the Pakistani community in Qatar is also supporting this major event for its success,” said Rana Anwar Ali.
