She is Grateful for Cricket.

She is glad for the fact that Pakistani’s treat Australia as their second home.

Moreover, she has wished the Muslims everywhere, including Pakistan, a Happy Eid as well!

She wrote a heartfelt letter of the length of about two paragraphs where she wishes Muslim families not only an Eid Mubarak but also includes that we should ‘recommit ourselves’ this Eid. She talks about Pakistani Australians and their importance. And wishes for a long lasting friendship for the two countries. This is the detailed message she sent:

“I send my good wishes to Muslims around the world, in Australia and here in Pakistan and across the South Asian region, as they celebrate the festival of Eid-ul-Fitr. As we celebrate this Eid we can also recommit ourselves to acting with respect, fairness, equality, and compassion towards all, regardless of cultural background, religious beliefs, ethnicity or gender.

For more than 600,000 Australian Muslims and the almost 62,000 Pakistani Australians, who make a valued contribution to our national life, Eid is a truly special time. Islam has become the second most common religion in Australia and Pakistani Australians make up the largest of Australia’s Muslim communities. Growing people-to-people links, our shared Commonwealth heritage and passion for cricket form the basis of the enduring friendship between our two nations. May this Eid be a peaceful and joyous celebration for all who celebrate this joyous occasion.”

Her utmost efforts for the well-being of the Pakistani economy as well as her work to ensure relationships between the two countries, will not be forgotten. Furthermore, she has linked the countries closest attributes (cricket) to formulate a just bond so that there is hope for a successful healthy connection.

Here is her latest tweet regarding her posting and future relations. It says, “Thank you @pidepk @zartajgulwazir for inviting me to speak about Australia’s relationship with Pakistan & my impressions from my 4 years in this important country as I come to the end of my posting here. I am confident relations between Australia & Pakistan will continue to grow”
