    Afghans dominate bodybuilding contest in Bhutan


    KABUL (PAN): Afghanistan with three gold and as many silver medals got first position in the 8th South Asian Bodybuilding Championship concluded in Bhutan on Saturday, an official said on Sunday.
    Starting June 1 at clock tower square in Thimphu, the event featured participants from Afghanistan, Pakistan, Nepal, India, Bhutan, Bangladesh, Nepal, Sari Lanka and the Maldives, spokesman of the National Olympic Committee, Mohammad Arif Paiman, told Pajhwok Afghan News.
    Shurullah Helmandi, Hameedullah Sherzad and Zamari were among 10 Afghans obtaining gold medals, he said.
    At the end of the contests, Afghanistan bodybuilding federation head, Bawar Hotak, was selected as deputy head of the South Asian Countries’ Congress Federation. Afghan Bodybuilding Federation secretary general, Zubair Mohsin, was selected as the congress secretary general, he said.
    There are 1,150 bodybuilding clubs in Afghanistan, with 200 in Kabul alone, according to the federation.

    A line[Durrand line] of hatred that raised a wall between the two brothers -Hamid Karzai

    For generations, the Hindus of India prayed for deliverance from "the venom of the cobra, the teeth of the tiger and the vengeance of the Afghan."


    The men of Kábul and Khilj also went home; and whenever they were questioned about the Musulmáns of the Kohistán (the mountains), and how matters stood there, they said, "Don't call it Kohistán, but Afghánistán; for there is nothing there but Afgháns and disturbances." Thus it is clear that for this reason the people of the country call their home in their own language Afghánistán, and themselves Afgháns. The people of India call them Patán; but the reason for this is not known. But it occurs to me, that when, under the rule of Muhammadan sovereigns, Musulmáns first came to the city of Patná, and dwelt there, the people of India (for that reason) called them Patáns—but God knows!

        hmmm yes... today i met someone from Afghanistan and he kissed my hands lol.
        but when i started talking to him, his way of talking was so soft i can't forget and his accent was so nice.
        while we were talking he said that they have so many doctors from their area and we have strong people like pahalwaan people... is it true ?

              I don't think anyone even cares where Bhutan is, nevermind a bodybuilding competition there.
