1. Preface

Considering the exponential growth of Pakistan Tahreek-e-Insaf in Pakistan andespecially abroad, we have decided to revisit and pay special attention to our overseas chapters.We acknowledge the need to streamline the processes to provide everyone an effective,transparent and competitive platform to serve our nation in the best of our capacity, to addressthis need Pakistan Tahreek-e-Insaf already has “Office of International Chapter” famouslyknown as OIC. Primary focus of OIC is to organize and provide platform to Pakistanis livingabroad to contribute in building and developing our nation using their skills and financialsupport.

OIC is currently overseeing several International chapters and among other internationalchapter Canadian chapters carries equal importance in terms of educated and qualifiedPakistanis working in the region. We intent to make these chapters more organized so that the

best of leadership/talent emerges not just in Pakistan but also overseas.

Pakistan Tahreek-e-Insaf believes that Overseas Pakistanis are the best of our resources and weare hopeful that they will get “right-to-vote” before upcoming election, for the very reason OIChas appointed Mr. Shahid Hussain as Deputy Secretary International Affairs (DSIA) for Canadaand Middle-East.

Here are few words from him which describes his vision for the region:

Canada has reasonable number of skilled and educated overseas Pakistanis, so weunderstand its importance and are well aware of the challenges faced by PTI workers in theregion. In past few weeks I’ve been in constant touch with several workers and officialsappointed by OIC and also with those who are working independently. I understand that thereare groups and individuals who have difference of opinion on how PTI should be functioning inthe region. We in PTI respect diversity and believe in “difference of opinion” as “healthy”, aslong as it remains within dignified mechanism and within Party’s code of conduct.

Like most of the International Chapters, Officials in Canada Chapters were alsoappointed based on their performance and long affiliation with the party. We value their hardwork and dedication for the party for last several years and we believe that these party workersare important assets, but wherever there are appointments, there are issues, appointments arealways questioned, so to ensure discipline in the party, elections in every chapter in the region

is inevitable.- Shahid Hussain

Middle-Eastern Chapter under Mr. Shahid Hussain

Appointment of Mr. Shahid Hussain as Deputy Secretary International Affairs (ME &Canada) brought major change in Middle Easter region, all chapters in middle-east weredepriving of elected and democratic setup, Mr. Shahid Hussain started with the most difficultchapter in the region i.e. Saudi Arabia and successfully delivered democratically elected setup in

the country making it one the highest paying overseas members among overseas communitywith UAE, Kuwait, Qatar and Oman to follow. It was painstaking process and took few monthsto get all different groups and panels onboard.

the conflict without escalation within 48 hours

involved in “CC” of the complaint email.

• Once the complaint email is initiated, CRC will give 24 hours to take back the
