Dear friends,
Most of us agree that protests are a good way of raising awareness and getting our message across. Street activism can be more effective, however, if it is part of a larger strategy that must include lobbying, advocacy groups, panel discussions with intelligentsia and other such activities. Dilawar Syed, a well known name in the bay area Pakistani business community, has taken the initiative to organize an advocacy group, SupportPakistan.org. Dilawar has vast experience in running successful business and not-for profit organizations.
SupportPakistan.org is a non-partisan platform which is focusing its efforts on political advocacy and mobilization of public opinion in the US in support of the civil liberties and the democratic aspirations of the people of Pakistan.
For the time being you can access SupportPakistan.org at the following url -
http://supportpakistan.wordpress.com/
The site will soon be transfered to supportpakistan.org .
Let’s all do whatever we can to make this platform successful.
