The President expressed these views while addressing the conference” titled Traditional & Non Traditional Security Imperatives for Pakistan, at the University of Karachi.

The Vice Chancellor of Karachi University Dr.  Khalid Iraqi, the executive Director  CISSS Ambassador Qazi Khaliullah and the Chairperson International Relations Department Karachi University Dr. Shaista Tabasum, the teachers and stu­dents were also present in large numbers on the occasion.

President Dr Arif Alvi  stated that to establish a healthy and balanced so­ciety, people should have basic education and health facilities.

He underscored the need to prioritise our decisions while making decisions in daily life or policy making, we must keep so­cial and societal needs, problems, and attitudes in mind.

The President said that there were 9 million births in Pakistan each year, 50% of which are unintentional. Through proper planning, infor­mation, and provision of facilities, not only can the growing population be controlled, but it is also possible to solve the health problems of wom­en they suffer during pregnancy.

He stat­ed that the natural resources alone are not sufficient for a country’s prosperity, but natural resources along with intellectual resources are important to utilize them efficiently. Nature has bless­ed us as a nation with enormous abilities, but that due to a lack of prop­er utilisation of these re­sources and abilities, we have fallen behind our neighbouring countries in the race for develop­ment in every field of life, he further added.
