Visa Pirablems Galore

From Yawn as usual

THIS is apropos of the news, ‘World Youth Congress’ (July 9). I was shocked to read that visa applications of all the delegates intending to participate in the World Youth Congress, scheduled to be held from Aug 11 in Quebec, Canada, have been refused by the Canada high commission on the assumption that the participants will stay back in Canada after the congress instead of returning to Pakistan.When Canada can give permission and visa to participants from Bangladesh, India and Sri Lanka, it should have no reason to turn down requests for visa from the Pakistani participants.One thing more: according to the news report, the participants tried for several months to find sponsors -- 100,000 Canadian dollars for one individual – but failed. I would request the government of Pakistan to look into the matter, and help the deserving participants in getting their visas for Canada, making it possible for them to represent Pakistan at the World Youth Congress.
