remember and reflect on the last 12 months, “ President of the Association, Mr
Shabbir Ahmed has said “We also wish to honour those people who have died in the
Earthquake in Pakistan.” A remembrance service will also take place to honour
those who have lost their lives in the Earthquake in Pakistan, along with
members of the Pakistani community in Australia in the last 12 months.
“The Pakistani community in Australia has strong family values and events such

and a real sense of belonging.” Ms Wajiha Ahmed, General Secretary said. A
prominent member of the Association, Mr Saeed Khan, Marrickville Councillor also
