  • Japanese firm to rebuild Kabul airport airfield




    A Japanese firm has been awarded the contract for rehabilitating the Kabul International Airport’s airfield, the Afghan embassy in Tokyo said on Friday. The Dai Nippon Construction, with a legacy of working on projects in Afghanistan, was given the contract last month, a statement from the embassy said.
    It added: "The project will start from March 2012 and is scheduled for completion by September 2013."
    Speaking at the signing ceremony, Afghan Ambassador to Japan Dr. Sayed M. Amin Fatimie said the project was important because it helped Afghanistan's efforts to create effective transport systems.

    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!
