LahorePakistan India Management Summit will take place in Lahore.

Lahore; a historic metropolis, a city of destiny, the cultural heart of Pakistan and

a hub for traditional food, maze of bazaars and a panorama of the great Mughal

empire and architecture, is undoubtedly defined by a vast majority as 'Jinnay

lohrr nahin waikhaya o jamya nahin'.

Lahore is undoubtedly ancient. Legend had it that it was founded by Loh, son of

Rama, the hero of Hindu epic, theRamayana. Some others think that the name

comes fromLohawar, meaning, a 'Fort as strong as Iron'. Muslim rule began here

when Qutb ud Din Aibak was crowned here in 1206.

Lahore is a central hub for travel in Pakistan, located in the northeastern edge of

Pakistani Punjab. The capital of the green Punjab and the second largest city of

Pakistan after Karachi, Lahore has a population of 10 million (2008). It is

located near the Ravi River, close to the Pakistan-India border. The city is alsoknown to be a Mughal garden due to its rich Mughal heritage.

Lahore has a friendly, relaxed and homely atmosphere. It brims with life,

entertainment, business and cultural activity. An attraction for all tourists, the

metropolis offers some great sites to see enjoy and reminisce forever.

The old city once surrounded by the Ravi River and covered by 12 gates is great

to explore, easy to get lost in and a kaleidoscope of color. The grand Lahore

Fort; the magnificent Badshahi Mosque; the historic Minar-e-Pakistan; the

beautiful Shalimar Gardens; the magnanimous Shrine of Data Gunj Bakhsh; the

rest place of the poet of east, Dr Mohammad Allama Iqbal; the Seraye Jehangiri;

the famous Mall Road; the beautiful Wazir Khan mosque; the throbbing LakshmiChowk and Food Streets known for traditional food are some of the must-see

places. One can; however, never miss shopping at the Anarkali Bazaar and

Liberty Market where 'you shop till you drop'.

By virtue of our culture andtradition we believe theneighbours to have goodrelations taking care of eachother in ups and downs of life,not withstanding creed, cast,colour or religion. So is true with

India our great next borderneighbour. In order to developgood relationship I am always infavour of taking confidencebuilding measures from bothsides to remove mistrustprevailing since long and try tosolve all disputes throughnegotiations thereby leaving nobone of contention.

To strengthen relations betweenour two countries, it is awelcome step to promote cross

border trade and transfer oftechnology and interact witheach other through exchange ofdelegates in all fields. Iappreciate efforts of NutshellForum and Aman Ki Asha in thisdirection to host the PakistanIndia Management Summitwith an objective to create visionfor new economic realities in thepresent and future leadership ofboth the countries.

Again NUTSHELL FORUM hastaken a wonderful initiative ofconnecting two parts of a whole.With my several trips to PakistanI am amazed at the eagerness ofthe youth in Pakistan to learn

and invest and the need to alsoknow what is happening in thecorporate world in India.Whereas in India mostexecutives are ignorant of theprofessional side of Pakistan andhow there are individuals andorganisations making a bigdifference to the world.Unfortunately due to the sociopolitical barriers and the visaregime we cannot collaborate asthe rest of the world. There areno barriers in Asia pacific, GCCand ECC for the nationals whohave fought wars in the past thenwhy is it that India and Pakistancannot frequently collaborate.This summit will be pathbreaking and I am excited

The strategic imperative forPakistan-India diplomaticactivities and informal bilateralinterfacing stems from manyconsiderations-similarity ofsystemic challenges in systems

that have a shared colonialimprint, ethnic populations withsimilar biological and socialrisks, and a common border inthe context of the burgeoningrole of trade.

The Nutshell Forum and AmanKi Asha's collaborativeengagement, which aims topromote people to people contactand a convening space fordiscussions around these issues,is commendable.

During the last few years, theeconomic landscape has beenthrough a sea change as globaleconomy has now entered 'age offrugality'. Fundamental shifts inbusiness performance, risk andconstraints create a need to re-

think strategies, plans anddecisions.

Keeping this in view, "PakistanIndia Management & HRDSummit" in Lahore onSeptember 20 & 21, 2012provides an excellentopportunity to build andstrengthen cordial relationshipand also generate responses toensure that businesses not onlysurvive but thrive in the new

economic era. Nutshell Forumand Aman Ki Asha deserve fullmarks for jointly hosting thiswonderful event to view oureconomic situations throughmultiple lenses and make value-based recommendations for awider range of scenarios & thebenefit of both countries .

I am most pleased to learn thatNutshell Forum is hosting"Pakistan India ManagementSummit" in Lahore onSeptember 20 & 21, 2012. Thesummit is being held at a time

when both Pakistan & India aretaking keen interest in improvingtheir bilateral ties for the mutualbenefit of the people of theregion. I firmly believe thereexists huge potential for thegrowth of relationship betweenthe two countries that can reaphuge benefits by exploitinguntapped resources in the areasof management and humanresource development. Thisforum will certainly encouragePakistan and India to comecloser as over 150 Indian andmore than 700 Pakistanidelegates are likely to attend thissummit. The potential benefitsthat can be derived throughbilateral cooperation between thetwo countries are notably highand will materialize in the formof higher growth rates and

expansion of bilateral trade andinvestments. As Pakistan & Indiatry to develop cordial andfriendly ties, this event will notonly usher in a new era ofunderstanding among the leaders

of the two neighboring countriesbut also develop better people-to-people contacts in the region.I wish Nutshell Forum and AmanKi Asha all the success in theirendeavours.

The Pakistan-India relationshipneeds to be put on a positive fasttrack. I strongly believe that asour governments continue totackle the hard political issues,business and management guruscan help by creating an

environment of positive andvibrant energy. Sharing andlearning from each other andcelebrating successful businesspractices, is one of the strongestways of creating networks andrelationships which can in turnlead to business collaborationand the growth of both oureconomies. The Pakistan-IndianManagement Summit is a greatinitiative on the road to makingthis happen. I have faith that the

movers and shakers ofmanagement will create the kindof energy that will take thePakistan-India relationship to anew level.

The Pakistan Software HousesAssociation for IT & ITES(P@SHA) is proud to supportthis Summit and to be an integralpart of it.
