Chapter 92 Education in Pakistan
"Strict prohibition of alcohol is a religious creed here, whether it is a folk wedding or an official state banquet, no alcohol is allowed, and those who brew wine without permission are punished more severely. ”
"In diplomatic settings, Pakistani diplomats do not object to other people's drinking, but they always substitute juice, soft drinks or water when toasting. ”
"So we are not the same as the Russians, the Russians are addicted to alcohol, they don't let them drink, they must be anxious with you, in Pakistan you don't see the phenomenon of drunkards lying on the streets and alcoholism, not drinking, there are still benefits. ”
Hearing Professor Abbas say this, everyone was amused.
Head Xia Yuxiang said: "Every country has its own religious beliefs, some of us Chinese believe in Buddhism, but young people today do not believe in this, nor do they believe in Jesus like Westerners, and now Chinese young people do not believe in anything, there is no religious belief, so in China, there is no prohibition on drinking, so many stores and supermarkets have beer and red wine for sale." ”
"Chinese don't drink a lot like Russians, many civilians in Chinese drink beer, the degree of liquor is too high, easy to get drunk, red wine is very expensive, and they can't afford it, the people drink more or beer, the rich choose more, they drink white wine and wine." ”
"My impression of women in Pakistan is that they are subject to a lot of constraints, whether it's in the cultural city of Lahore or in the remote countryside in the north, you see women with veils, black veils and only eyes exposed," Qu said. ”
"According to religious rules, women are not allowed to have contact with men other than their husbands and family members, and when they walk on the road, when they see a man approaching on the opposite side, they immediately retreat to the side of the road and face the wall, and only after the stranger has passed they go on the road to continue walking," Professor Abbas said. ”
Qu Lihua shrunk her neck, "Wow, it's such an exaggeration, do girls have to wear veils all the time?"
"Generally speaking, girls don't wear veils until they are eleven or twelve years old, but after they are thirteen years old, they wear veils to avoid people, they can't come into contact with strange men, they can't hug or shake hands with male guests, they can't avoid all contact," Professor Abbas said. ”
"However, we have also seen some Pakistani women wearing fashionable clothes that show the upper part of the chest and the back. ”
"That's a very few, those fashionable women have been influenced by the West, fashionable, feel that it is fashionable to wear like that, but most women in Pakistan are still bound by customs and religion, maybe you Chinese will say that this is feudal thinking, but we think that this is still good for restraining women, or to avoid a lot of bad things, women avoid contact with strange men, it reduces a lot of crime." ”
"Let's take a look at education in Pakistan, where students in primary and secondary schools are divided into classes or branch schools according to gender, but in order to solve the shortage of classrooms and make primary education as universal as possible, schools in some places stipulate that primary school students are not divided into male and female classes until the third grade. ”
"Pakistan used to be like some remote mountainous areas in China, because of poverty, families could not send their children to school, and parents could not consider sending their children to school because of poverty, which is common in both India and Pakistan. ”
"In Pakistan, children are required to attend pre-primary education for two years before entering primary school, which includes primary and lower secondary education. ”
"Language, mathematics, science, Pakistani social studies, health and physical education, and art are generally offered in primary schools, while compulsory English and vocational courses such as weaving, tanning, and food storage are added in junior high schools, so that students who have received primary education and do not continue their studies can be employed. ”
"Elementary and junior high schools encourage students to observe, explore, experiment, and practice, emphasizing the cultivation of students' love of labor, and the high school and intermediate colleges offer comprehensive science courses and vocational subjects in engineering, agriculture, business, and home economics in addition to general education courses. ”
"Universities admit those who hold an intermediate college diploma, and various non-university colleges of higher learning recruit those who hold a high school diploma, from which students can graduate from an intermediate college and study for two years to obtain a bachelor of arts or science. ”
"The current school system in Pakistan is divided into three stages: primary, secondary and tertiary education. ”
"5 years of primary education, 7 years of secondary education, 4 years of undergraduate education at the tertiary level, followed by master's, doctoral and postdoctoral postgraduate education. ”
"Education is the most effective and powerful tool for social reform, and Pakistan's education funding is mainly borne by the provinces, and the federal government attaches great importance to education and is increasing its allocation to education. ”
"Since the establishment of Pakistan, universal primary education has been one of the main objectives of all education conferences and education plans, but universal primary education has not yet been achieved, and the development of primary education is very uneven between men and women, urban and rural areas, and provinces, and the illiteracy rate is still very high. ”
"The Pakistani government has made great efforts to improve higher education, enrich the library data and laboratories of universities and independent colleges, increase the number of instruments and equipment, establish key subject centers in some universities, and offer master's, doctoral and postdoctoral postgraduate courses such as analytical chemistry, physical chemistry, marine biology, solid state physics, geology, etc. ”
"The establishment of regional research centers and applied research centers, the establishment of higher education research institutes, the training of teachers of higher education institutions, the on-the-job training of teachers of higher education institutions, the close ties between schools and society, and the organization of mutual visits between teachers and students of various universities to exchange academic information and teaching experience. ”
"China's education has also supported us, donating to those poor children who can't afford to go to school, buying school supplies, school bags, pencil cases, small books, and a lot of materials donated from charity in China every year, sent to poor families, delivered to those children's hands, and many parents of poor families are very grateful to China. ”
"Our university has also established friendly relations with Chinese universities, and I am also very fortunate to have gone to China to have academic exchanges with colleagues from Chinese universities, and it is a great honor to meet Dean Zhang and President Xia, Dean Zhang is very good, very good to our Pakistani professors, and does not discriminate against us, and does not look down on those Western university professors, and discriminates against us professors from developing countries, Dean Zhang still treats us as friendly and kind as always, which makes me very touched. ”
"Once he found out that the sweater I was wearing was broken, he asked me to take it off, take it back, ask his wife to help me sew it, and after repairing it, he brought it back to me, and I kept the sweater for many years, this is the friendship of the Chinese towards us, and we must always remember it." ”
