The most recent one is the one that was shared by Sen. (Prof.) Kamar, who brought this Statement in the House. It is unfortunate that for the last 120 days nobody has looked at the recommendations of the Ad hoc Committee. Before the Ad hoc Committee, there was a taskforce that went round to look at ... view

  • 17 Jul 2019 in Senate: research on how various communities lived, and how our people have evolved from the past to the present age. Madam Temporary Speaker, museums can serve as reconciliation centres, if well maintained. They can also serve as meeting centres for our people to resolve their conflicts. Similarly, museums will play a very important role of creating employment opportunities for our youths. Currently, our country is experiencing a high rate of unemployment. Museums can, therefore, serve as employment centres. For example, in the United States of America (USA), museums have employed 1,850 workers. In addition, people can set up businesses in Museums; ... view
