Prof. Dr. Samina Khalil attended a conference / workshop on CAREC Corridors (Economic / Transport) Performance Measurement and Monitoring (CPMM), from 25-26 July 2018, at the capital city of Azerbaijan, Baku. It is a great opportunity for the new government under Imran Khan to reach out to Central Asian countries (so close to Pakistan) to tap the potential economic integration for mutual benefits. Baku is highly impressive with the very well preserved old historical places and modern structures . Azerbaijan with the population of 9.8 million people and 100% literacy rate is thriving economically.
