The inventor of Bio-Medical Technology in Pakistan is Prof. Dr. Muhammad Munir Hassan who was Vice Chancellor of NED Engineering & Technology, Karachi, in 1991 and presently his life in Canada as retired Government servant.
It is unfortunate that Government of Pakistan has as yet not recognized his services of such people due to one simple reason that they never ask the Government of Pakistan to give them any sort of Presidentail Award.
Like Prof. Dr. Muhammad Munir Hassan, there are so many people in the country who have long lists of giving unmatched services for the country, as well as for the people of Pakistan, but their services have as yet not been recognized by the Government of Pakistan despite a lapse of decades.
The delima is one has to know the right people to elaborate his services loud and clear, so as to get the Presidential Award.
I salute such silent Mujahid's of Pakistan who are passing their lives quietly and a day will come when they will return to their Creator.
Heroes are heroes. We should take them unilaterally. This is not political campaign well done dear..
I think you should join PTI

Congratulations
As an IEEE member, I am thrilled to see a fellow Pakistani achieving this.So proud! Best news coming from Pakistan today!
Again, as always..such bright ones are NEVER from Ba Ba Blacksheep english-medium schools....Each and every great one is from Taat school, peela school or Madressa...Ba ba Balcksheep schools produce only JOBBERS CEO types for multi-cultis
So proud of you Dr. Zaman. Love your articles too. Glad someone cares about education and health.
Well done! Making Pakistan proud!
CONGRATS DEAR excellent writing. we need reformation of minds TOWARDS RESEARCH AND UNITY. EVERYBODY MUST CONSIDER WHOLE PAKISTAN AS HIS OWN FAMILY AND WORK FOR IT HONESTLY.
