PAI Visit!

Exciting news - Brodie Boland, President of AIESEC International is coming to Pakistan from 20th to 25th April! What an absolutely awesome start to the new year! :)

AIESEC Karachi's Leadership Team 06-07 at dinner tonight! We had the most hilarious time reenacting interviews, sharing random AIESEC and university stories. Unfortunately Naveen (VP OGX) couldn't be there, but her 'nemesis' Taha made up for her absence :P

From the left: Taha - ICX (Corporate) Team Leader, Haris - VP ER&F, Rabia - VP ICX (Development), Sharmeen (VP PD) and me (LCP).

I'm still laughing at some of the stories I've heard today - love you guys :) This is going to be one fantastic year!

The Canadian Invasion

Last year it was Australia, and now Canada's taking over our MC! First Kurt got elected, and now we have Puneet Duggal coming in the summer as an MC CEED! (Just kidding, we love you all! :P)

Welcome Puneet, you're going to have an amazing time here! =)

AIESEC Karachi's First TN Raise!

AIESEC Karachi is very proud to announce that we have raised our first traineeship - with the Ashoka Foundation! We've been over the moon since Sharmeen and Rabia called me up from their meeting saying 'We need bank account details..'; and it didn't register for the first few seconds..and Sharmin and I started celebrating as soon as I said to them 'get back here SOON! we need to celebrate!' and hung up.

Congratulations to the ICX-Development Sector department, especially Sharmeen Saleem (VP ICX-D, 05-06) and Rabia Memon (VP ICX-D, 06-07) for the raise! We're all very proud of you two!

If you're interested in doing a great traineeship in one of the newest countries in the AIESEC network, contact Rabia at rabiya.memon@gmail.com, she's the TN manager, and the TN ID is: TN-Yo-PK-KA-2006-1001

Signing off,
a very excited LCP
