We are winning in the game of cricket with Pakistan, whose cricket team had been in dominant position in all the past years.

<< RIYADH — Pakistani Ambassador Manzoor Ul Haq said that tolerance and the spirit of peaceful co-existence remained our hallmark for centuries and would return to our lands eventually. He was speaking as Chief Guest at a National Day celebration hosted by Pakistan Culture Group (aka: PCG) – a social & welfare organization in Riyadh. "Ours was a beautiful country with peace & tranquility everywhere. We were tolerant to each other's view points and people of all sects, political leanings and cast & creed lived peacefully. However, it is unfortunate to see intolerance creeping in our society during the recent past, "Haq remarked. He also added that this was a passing phase and our lands would see the return of the golden era of tolerance and peaceful co-existence all over again. >>
