  I have been to 40 Countries allover the world, it was for the first time I have received such an excellent hospitality in Pakistan. It was heart-wining welcome.

My memorable visit to Pakistan:
I and my wife Madhuri would like to express my gratitude for a memorable visit to Karachi and Lahore between 4th and 9th of March 06. It was our dream to visit Pakistan and spread the laughter movement but due to political situation between the two countries it was not easy to get visa to Pakistan. Thanks to MAP Convention 2006, we got the opportunity and I would like to say the following from the bottom of my heart- Our visa was a complete walk over and it just took 2 minutes in Pakistani High Commission to get the visa. Later I came to know how much work was involved by Hamza Hashmi and Arif Ansari to get the clearance from interior ministry. The moment we arrived on Karachi airport we were well received and it was a red carpet parchment.

Our stay at Sheraton was Luxurious and very comfortable. Visit to Lahore was memorable as it was like a dream and we felt that we were trotted like king and queen in PC hotel fountain suite. Extraordinary reception (all organized by our friend Arif), sight seeing was exclusive and dinner of “Cocoos” was very special.

The remarkable thing about our visit was that we didn’t have to spend a penny and people were not accepting money we offered. The MAP Convention went very well, all the distinguished speakers were at their best, the laughter yoga seminar was a blockbuster and reasonably successful. The outstanding feature of our visit was the love and affection by Pakistani people’s purity on our visit and we were also in tears by there heart warming welcome. I visited many countries and used to tell the whole world that there is no match for Indian hospitality. But after coming to Pakistan I have changed my mind and will tell people that if you want to know what hospitality means please come to Pakistan. We have overwhelming response to laughter club idea and Insha Allah we will be back again in July and August to set up laughter clubs. Our Special thanks to our special friends Hamza and Arif for their love, affection and hard work. God bless you.
Ho Ho Ha Ha Ha..

DATO Seri Anwar Ibrahim, former Deputy Prime Minister of Malaysia
   
  I must commend the organizer of the superb arrangement and excellent hospitality.
 
 
Ms. Zubia Leghari, Chief Executive, STEP
   
  It goes without doubts that MAP 10th Convention is very well organized and fairly structured by the entire team members. The entire speakers were well qualified and their presentations were very thought provoking too. I congratulate MAP & Octara team for organizing such a successful event.
 
 
Mr. Mohsin Iqbal, CSM, Asia Pacific Home Brand & Campaign Marketing
   
  An impressive, thought provoking, strategic Dialogue facilitated by MAP. The insight and recommendations could not have come at a better time especially for Pakistan-based business to pursue growth strategies both locally and globally.
 
 
Mr. Hilmy Cader, Chief Executive, MTI Consulting (Bahrain)
   
  A great convergence of minds, excellent organization and the warmest hospitality.
Thank You MAP + Octara
 
 
Mr. Shafiq Ahmed Siddiqui, Chief Executive Officer, Buxly Paints LTD
   
  A very well organized conference. Also extremely well arranged. I feel extremely happy that MAP appointed Octara as the event manager. They have done a tremendous job.

  Pakistan… A surprise packet!
Starting with Octara management for someone who does a lot of “speaking” I usually approach events with trepidation. MAP organizers were always one Step ahead of my queries. Karachi was the second surprise graciousness from all whom I met third was the healthy debate, lets hope that we can realize the hopes expressed. Of course this event could have been marred by recent events but from my arrival at the airport I was made to feel both safe and comfortable.
 
 
Mr. Farooq Hassan, Executive Director, MAP
   
  This was one of the great events of the year. It would Not have been possible, but for M/S Octara full kudos to them.
 
 
Eliza Ilyas, Media Consultant & Journalist, UK.
   
  This is a debate that is very much needed it saves a two-fold purpose first by opening up debate and dialogue. Secondly it is profiling Pakistan and its success stories in both the public and private sectors. Pakistan is a hidden asset that now needs to be dusted down and put on the world map - quite apt as we have disused globalization in great detail.
 
 
Mr. Naveed Saeed, GM Sales & Marketing Warid Telecom
   
  An impressive platform, the same knowledge and minds, the participants were the best they could be. Such events should continue and also should happen at international forums.
Regards.
 
 
Mr. Mahboob Mahmood, Adjunct Professor, Insead and CEO Knowledge Platform.
   
  The quality of the speakers and level of discussion and the entire conference was brilliantly organized by MAP and the Octara team did an excellent job on all fronts, great people!
 
 
Dr.Walter Kuemmerle,Professor of Business Administration, Harvard Business School.
   
  My Congratulations to Octara and Tranzum Group on a great conference. Participants in the conference were lively and it was organized at a very professional level. I must say that the MAP conference compasses very frontally to many of those other conferences. The team from Octara managed the right level of autonomous decision-making combined with detailed attention to attendees and speakers.

Since I have known Tranzum and its founders Mr. Khalid Awan, my expectations when coming to Pakistan were high. The Octara team exceeds them. Thank you to Arif Ansari and Hamza Hashmi for doing a good job. Thanks to Ali Leghari for being a patient and engaging heart. Thanks to Jamil Janjua for his involvement and to Khalid Awan for his friendship.
