Asia Youth Leaders Forum

Muhammad Ammar is leading with the beacon of hope and the torch of opportunity for the Pakistani youth in providing opportunities for revered employments and comfortable career paths.

Ammar Muhammad, secretary-general of the China-Pakistan International Industry-Education Cooperation Alliance and secretary-general of the Professional Committee of Overseas Chinese Talents of the Beijing Global Talent Exchange Promotion Association attended the sub-forum of the Asian Youth Leaders Forum and the 4th global trends conference on 25 March, held successfully in Guangzhou, Nansha. This conference focused on "Green Asia and Future Development", aiming to discuss how to attain a balance between The National Double Carbon Target, and the promotion of enterprise development. Focusing on the recovery of China’s economy after the epidemic and the rise of new consumption waves. Starting from the relationship between consumption and green development and the innovations required in that sector. Emphasizing on laying the foundation for an improved economic system based on green low carbon development.

A point was made for the development of China-Pakistan vocational education shared experience. Ammar is working towards bringing vocational training to Pakistan collaborating with China to provide the young Pakistanis with opportunities to learn skills which can be exponentially beneficial to them in an industry which is constantly shifting its focus to a skill-based work force as opposed to a degree qualified work force. He said "As the engine of global economic growth, the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor has made great contributions to Pakistan's economic and social development, prosperity and peace through in-depth cooperation in the fields of science and technology, economy, agriculture, energy, transportation, industry and human resource development, to continue to promote the high-quality development of the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor. In order to actively promote the implementation of the China-Pakistan Industrial Cooperation Framework Agreement, promote the development of Pakistan's industrialization, and strengthen the training of professional and skilled talents for the construction of the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor, it is imperative to strengthen China-Pakistan vocational education. “

At present, The China-Pakistan Economic Corridor is at the center stage of Pakistan’s high-quality development, promoting as well as accelerating the development of Pakistan’s economy. This fast-paced development has created a vacuum to be filled with individuals of defined skill sets with hands on experience for the tasks at hand.
He has introduced vocational training initiatives at the government level of both countries in order to strengthen cooperation in the fields of industry and education between the iron brothers. On February 17, the China-Pakistan International Industry Education Cooperation Alliance was officially launched and established. Regarding the planning of this division in terms of international education and industry education, the figures for China-Pakistan International Industry Education Cooperation Alliance are ambitious and listed below:

• Help Pakistan introduce 210 advanced vocational standards from China to Pakistan’s vocational education system.
• Build 210 Pakistani branch campuses of Chinese colleges and universities.
• 36 China-Pakistan vocational education excellence training centers.
• More than 1,000 international courses.
• More than 30,000 teacher education and training.
• Introduction of more than 10,000 foreign students who come to China for further studies.
• Provide 50,000 Internship employment opportunities for 100,000 Pakistani students.
• "Chinese + vocational skills" training for 100,000 Pakistani students.

This Platform is the right step forward in the paradigm shift needed for the appreciation of value based jobs in Pakistan and an integral part of the system necessary for the development and success of the Pakistani economic sector. Muhammad Ammar is leading with the beacon of hope and the torch of opportunity for the Pakistani youth in providing opportunities for revered employments and comfortable career paths. It is necessary to give merit to these efforts and to spread awareness for the copious amounts of potential of success available for individuals which choose a vocational training path instead of a degree certification.
