Congratulations to American President
5 November 2008
Dear Mr. President Obama,
I learnt the results of the US Presidential election early morning of the 5th of November in UK and heard your speech with a great interest. I on behalf of Association of Pakistani Lawyers a team of Pakistani origin lawyers, Solicitors, Barristers, Judges in UK jointly congratulate you on your remarkable, historic victory for change in The United Sates, and in return in the World.
Your victory, Mr. President, has not only revived the concept of modern democracy where dissent can be expressed through ballot, but a huge turnout proves that American people are alive and kicking in the time of need. When international recession and financial institutions are looming with crisis, your reconciliatory approach is a sigh of relief for war ridden areas like Iraq, Afghanistan, Palestine and many states of Africa which are deprived of basic hygiene, food and shelter and infants die in the early age of their life without food, clean water and vaccination.
Your election Mr. President has also given a new dimension of human race where a concept has been strengthened that race colour and creed can never hinder in human development and progress and your over 51% votes by all communities reject human created divisions and call for saving and serving the humanity. American people deserve applause for rejecting colour discrimination and vote for the best on the day. It will be unjust not to mention the grace with which Senator McCain fought election against you and accepted defeat with honour, pride and humility.
America needs to offer hope to the community of nation and revitalize its efforts to jointly consult with the world if it ever desire to come closer to victory on its drive against extremism. No doubt, 9/11 was the most tragic and most condemnable attack on civilization by criminals and proportionate use of force, revival of United Nations role, protecting the sovereignty of independent nations, joint intelligence sharing mechanism and collective wisdom is the key to defeat this menace.
We expect that President Obama has uniquely given hope of peace, change and empowerment to its people and news of peace to the world and we all wish you good luck in your coming 4 years which will be a test for the new administration and patience of the people of the United States and we hope that you Mr. President will not let American people and the world down as the world has a chance to be a better place opposite to what it has been last 8 years.
We wish you luck as at present you need all the luck of the world. Most profound regards.
Yours sincerely,
Amjad Malik, MA, LLM
Solicitor-Advocate of the Supreme Court of England and Wales
