    Foreign ministry issues computerised passports



    The Ministry of Foreign Affairs issued two types of computerised passports to diplomats and public servants, an official said on Saturday.
    Printed according to international standards, the computerised passports would help improve security, a ministry spokesman, Janan Musazai, told a news conference in Kabul.
    The passports -- with certain security codes that could be checked and registered by machines at airports -- were printed in Britain. "On the photo page, there are 16 security codes," he said.
    He said the distribution process was launched on August 18. Issuance of old passports to students has been stopped and they will also be given computerised passports in the future.
    Musazai said the ministry planned to hasten issuing passports to ordinary people. The duration of computerised passports, valid for five years, will not be extended.

    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!

    So now the people at the embassy can sell them for a higher price.
