Dear Community members
Asalamoalikum

Pakistan Association of New Zealand has proudly been a part of New Zealand for the past 35 years. This wonderful milestone could not have been possible without the dedication, commitment and hard work of the individuals and volunteers that are an integral part of this organization.


My team and I recently got elected as the new Executive Committee of PANZ for a period of two years from  2012 to 2014.


As you are aware, the recent years in PANZ’s history were marked with some challenges and dispute. However, with the help of community leaders and a transparent election process, PANZ has successfully launched a new phase for itself.

Our new Executive Committee is a team of talented and successful individuals who are keen and enthusiastic about serving the community and bringing about a change. We want to take PANZ to the next level where it is not only recognised by the Pakistanis in New Zealand, but also by other local organisations and the New Zealand community at large.

I strongly feel that PANZ has tremendous potential to grow and become a household name in New Zealand. I envision an organisation that is the primary source of information, social activities, charitable giving and a platform for the community.


Over the coming months the priorities for myself and my team will be:

 

1. Membership Drive

2. Conducting elections of the three advisory members

3. Redrafting  the constitution of PANZ

4.  Website construction with a user friendly and modern interface that will help us in launching all our future projects.

 

In closing, I would like to thank you for the trust you have placed in us and we look forward to your continued support in the future.


We welcome your suggestions and comments, please feel free to contact anyone of us,we are here to serve you - our community.


Yours Sincerely,


Naveed Hameed and the Executive Team of PANZ
