Al Ibrahimi Group of Restaurants

I would like to congratulate all Pakistanis residing in the UAE and all over the world on this historic day. Our forefathers sacrificed their lives for freedom, and we shouldn't forget them. Allah has blessed Pakistan with many delights. On this glorious day we must not forget the UAE, where more than 1.3 million Pakistanis live, work and serve the nation.
As Pakistanis, we have to show our commitment to the country that has provided so many employment opportunities for us. Every expat must abide by the law and respect the local culture and values.
We urge the leadership in Pakistan to further strengthen relations with the UAE because during the difficult days this nation and its Rulers have stood by Pakistan.
We pay rich tribute to the Rulers of the UAE for their great vision and progressive policies. Pakistan policy makers should follow the UAE's example. We pray to Almighty Allah for prosperity and development in Pakistan. We should respect everyone and all Pakistanis must adopt patience, tolerance and endurance. Pakistan is growing and Insha'Allah we will soon overcome the challenges we are currently facing.
Pakistan Zindabaad, Pak-Emirates friendship, Painda Baad.
