A delegation of US based journalists from International Centre for Journalists (ICFJ) were hosted by Mr. Kalim ur Rahman – CEO, JS Bank at a local hotel. Their visit to Pakistan has been organized as part of the US – Pakistan Professional Partnership in Journalism Forum to enhance the exchange of views between the two nations and to help formulate a softer opinion of each other in the media of their respective countries.

Welcoming the delegation, Mr. Imran Shaikh, Head of Marketing, JS Bank spoke on the occasion to appreciate the efforts of the delegation to strengthen the existing ties between the countries.

Mr. Kalim ur Rahman – CEO, JS Bank stated that this is a important milestone in the history between United States of America and Pakistan to pave the way to a better understanding of each other’s culture and complexities involved to improve the existing relationship. Pakistan has immense potential and there is a need to ensure that all the positive news should also be highlighted in the right circles around the world.

Participants on both sides will have opportunities to report on their experiences in each country, which will help to educate their audiences and dispel myths and misperceptions that people carry in each country about residents of the other.  The event was attended by political, business, media and civil society leaders along with Bureaucrats.
