From Australian fields to Pakistani tables. At Port Qasim, I saw 23,186 tonnes of Australian desi chickpeas arrive in Pakistan. Trade like this helps strengthen food supply while deepening a partnership that keeps delivering for Pakistan.
Devastating news from Peshawar regarding the school roof collapse. Deepest sympathies to all those who lost their loved ones and to those injured. A very sad day for the families and for Pakistan. Our sympathies, thoughts and prayers.
Rural women are at the heart of Pakistan’s farms, food security and rural communities. Through @ACIARAustralia, Australia is supporting research partnerships that help women drive agricultural innovation and climate resilience. Celebrating their knowledge, leadership and impact!
Salinity knows no borders.

A very enjoyable walk through #BurnsRoad, one of #Karachi’s iconic food districts, and a chance to try the city’s famous food! The warmth and hospitality of the traders and locals were second to none. Bohot shukriya — and Karachi zindabad!
Congratulations to Pakistani-Australian Aliza Atif on becoming Australian Girls Under 11 #squash champion! An unbeaten run at the Australian Junior Championships in Tasmania — a fantastic achievement and also a great moment for junior squash in the ACT. citynews.com.au/2026/act-jun…
An honour to strike the gong and open trading for the day at the Pakistan Stock Exchange. A valuable discussion on reforms, collaboration and digitisation in Pakistan’s capital markets — and their connection with the world.
