I am really proud of the fact that Pakistani women are achieving such heights. There performance has been better than expected as is reported in the news item. I hope to see first Pakistani women air chief, say after 30-35 years, if I am alive and reflect on these days when women were dragged on the road for trying to run in marathon and some were reaching skies on F-16s. I salute both the lot, irrespctive of achievement as it is the struggle that counts in the end.
