Progress of countries in the 21st century would not be determined by their natural resources, but by their number of brilliant students pursuing higher education. Today's educational and skills related initiatives will pave the way for future prosperity and integrated social growth and maturity, the nation will experience in the coming years. Only the knowledge economies are going to be successful in future.It is the duty of a state to provide equal educational, employment and health opportunities to its people which will surely set their future course of economic and social prosperity. The Punjab Educational Endowment Fund is not merely an expenditure made by the Government of Punjab but an investment in talented youth for a bright future of Pakistan. I am confident that with continued zeal and commitment, the Punjab Educational Endowment Fund, which my government founded few years ago, will further reinforce this educational revolution in the years to come.
