Meaningless Attack on Innocent Children in Pakistan
On behalf of TIEMS Chapters and Members, I like to express my deepest sympathy with the Pakistani people and especially the families which lost their children in the meaningless tragedy yesterday! The number of causalities, mostly being young children, is shocking and heart breaking, and leaves me angry, sad and speechless!
Let us meet such meaningless violence with more education and increase the education capacity building in countries where this is needed most!
