The Lost Glory!

A rare video of the extraordinary reception accorded to President Ayub on his July 1961 state visit to the United States. One cant imagine a modern day US President waiting on the tarmac to receive a visiting head of state and that is what Kennedy did for Ayub. Makes one a proud Pakistani.

In July 1961, President Mohammad Ayub Khan of Pakistan, accompanied by his daughter Begum Nasir Akhtar Aurangzeb, paid a state visit to the United States. This film, produced by the United States Information Service, recounts the events of President Ayubs trip. Highlights include a state dinner at Mt. Vernon, a visit to the Islamic Center of Washington, and a ticker tape parade in New York City. President Ayubs visit also included a trip to San Antonio where he toured and laid a wreath at The Alamo, followed by a barbecue at Vice President Johnsons ranch in Stonewall, TX

USA gave all respect to us but our Leaders were not capable to withhold that respect. So who's fault is this ?

We should not fight with anyone but Just be friend and be sincere with our self too. Pls choose better leaders and bring the Change.

US and rest of the World will give us respect again if we correct ourself and become better country and Nation.
