ALTAF HUSSAIN ANNOUNCES GOLD MEDAL FOR OSCAR WINNER SHARMEEN CHINOY

Founder and Leader of Muttahida Quami Movement (MQM) Mr Altaf Hussain has announced gold medal for Ms Sharmeen Chinoy whose documentary “Saving Face” won the coveted Oscar Award. He made this announcement while talking to the Co-ordination Committee of the MQM at Nine Zero on telephone.
Mr Hussain said that Ms Chinoy had presented the case of the women burnt by acid in a forceful manner at the world level through her documentary. The Oscar award given to her for the documentary film would be a source of honour not only for Ms Chinoy for the entire country. The nation congratulates Ms Chinoy on her meritorious achievement.
Mr Hussain instructed the Co-ordination Committee to hold a befitting reception for Ms Chinoy when she returned to Pakistan. He said that there was no dearth of talent in the country. If only the people at the helm of affairs gave preferment to the system of merit, the name of the country was bound to rise higher in world.
