All human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights.

🇳🇱🇵🇰 Congratulations to Mr. Ron Ton, founding director of Clingendael Academy in The Hague, on receiving Pakistan’s prestigious Civil Award “Sitara-i-Imtiaz”.

For decades, the Clingendael Academy has trained hundreds of Pakistani diplomats, building vital expertise in diplomacy and policy.

Business ethics, bold ideas, and future leaders in one room.

At FAST University, 🇳🇱 Deputy Ambassador Mr. Hajo Provó Kluit joined students for an engaging conversation on responsible business and ethical practices. The discussion reflected the spirit of the Pakistan Accord, a Dutch-led initiative working towards safer, more ethical workplaces.

Good to meet Shehzad Roy as well, who contributed his perspective to the discussion.

Today is Remembrance Day.

Each year on 04 May, the Netherlands honors the Dutch victims of the Second World War as well as all who have been killed in any other war situation since then.

Marking the 81 years that have passed since the end of the Second World War, today, we reflect and thank our liberators for their courage and the sacrifices they have made, which has paved the way for the freedom we cherish today.

As part of Remembrance Day on 4 May, the Netherlands observes a moment of silence to commemorate and remember. Everyone is free to commemorate in the way they teel fit.
