  • Buildings inaugurated for schools in Balkh, Herat, and Kabul

    According to an education ministry press release issued today, a building for the Sheikh Mohammad Sidiq Shahab boys and girls high school in the city of Mazar-e-Sharif was inaugurated today by Afghan officials. Mazar-e-Sharif is located in Afghanistan’s northern province of Balkh. The building was built in one year by the Rafi’ Waleed Construction Company at a cost of $73,000. The project was funded by UNICEF. The building has 8 classrooms, 4 administrative rooms, and it is furnished with 240 tables and chairs. It is equipped with the necessary items required for the students’ educational needs. Also on Wednesday, August 25th, a building was inaugurated for an elementary school in Hasan Dara, which is located in the Farza district of Afghanistan’s eastern province of Kabul. The building was constructed in 6 months at a cost of $100,000. Funding for the project was provided by a charity dedicated to helping the children of Afghanistan. The building has 8 classrooms, 2 administrative rooms, and it is equipped with the necessary items required for the students’ educational needs.
    Finally, on Tuesday, August 24th, a building was inaugurated for a boys and girls high school in Sara Parda, which is located in the Obah district of Afghanistan’s western province of Herat. The building was built in one year by the Naweed Bost Construction Company. The project was paid for by the education ministry. The building has 16 classrooms, 8 administrative rooms, 10 rest rooms, and it is equipped with the necessary items required for the students’ educational needs.


    Hi, I am the source.
    Even Adobe Photoshop can't change me.

    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!

    -Ferishta, 1560–1620

    Inshallah with the amount of aid pledged by International organizations I am sure we will have an educated Afghan force soon.

      I am actually very happy to see and hear all of this. So many new schools have been built in Kabul and surrounding areas. There has been a rise of female students in grade school especially universities. I was told boys are more in school than in the streets or working. There has been more small community colleges for students that are preparing themselves for university levels. And these preparations are in English. I saw a few books...it was in English, Pashto, and Dari. Majority of schools are providing transportation for students...for universities, students can have access to their own personal driver. I mean i was so pleased to see all of this. I didnt think i would see much of improvements.
