Islamabad: The Institute of Strategic Studies Islamabad (ISSI) hosted a high-level delegation from the Malaysian Consultative Council of Islamic Organization (MAPIM), led by its President, Mr. Mohd Azmi Bin Abd Hamid.<\/p>\n
A roundtable discussion was organized to evaluate the current status of the global movement for Jammu & Kashmir and explore strategies to highlight India\u2019s illegal occupation, its continued aggression against Kashmiris, and its denial of the right to self-determination, as enshrined in the UN Charter and relevant Security Council resolutions.<\/p>\n
The event was attended by academics, researchers, diplomats, human rights activists, and youth mobilizers working on the issue.<\/p>\n
Dr. Khurram Abbas, Director of the India Study Centre at ISSI, welcomed the participants and introduced the visiting delegation.<\/p>\n
In his remarks on the occasion, Director General ISSI Ambassador Sohail Mahmood applauded MAPIM\u2019s commendable work under Mr. Azmi\u2019s leadership in advocating for the causes of the Muslim Ummah, particularly Palestine and Kashmir. He acknowledged MAPIM\u2019s efforts in drawing international attention to the plight of the Kashmiris and emphasized that the delegation\u2019s visit to ISSI provided an opportunity to share insights as well as exchange views on the evolving global dynamics with reference to the Jammu and Kashmir dispute.<\/p>\n
Ambassador Sohail Mahmood emphasized that the Jammu and Kashmir dispute must be examined through legal, human rights, and peace and security perspectives.<\/p>\n
In his remarks, Mr. Mohammad Azmi Abdul Hamid highlighted that the MAPIM delegation\u2019s visit was part of its broader efforts to mobilize resources and advocacy for the Kashmir issue. He noted that colonial powers had deliberately left behind unresolved disputes to internally weaken post-colonial societies. While the establishment of the United Nations had initially raised hopes for justice, its failure to resolve disputes like Kashmir and Palestine has raised serious concerns about its effectiveness.<\/p>\n
Mr. Azmi reiterated Malaysia\u2019s steadfast support for the Kashmir cause at both governmental and non-governmental levels. He suggested that, given shifting global dynamics, informal, people-centric approaches should be prioritized to sustain international attention on Kashmir. He emphasized the importance of action-oriented research and innovative solutions to create an enabling environment for resolving the dispute.<\/p>\n
The discussion that followed reinforced the need for a community-oriented approach to the Kashmir issue, alongside active diplomatic efforts. Participants also stressed the importance of countering India\u2019s misleading narrative and presenting the legal and historical realities of the dispute to the international community.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
