New York Recognizes Pakistani American Contributions with Two Historic Resolutions
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

Introduction In a significant recognition of the Pakistani American community’s contributions to society, the New York State Assembly and Senate have passed two historic resolutions. According to these resolutions, March 23, 2025, will be observed as “Pakistan-American Heritage Day”, while March 19, 2025, has been designated as “Pakistan-American Business Day.” This milestone acknowledges the Pakistani community’s impact on the cultural, social, and economic landscape of New York State.

The Role of the American Pakistani Advocacy Group The successful passage of these resolutions is the result of the persistent efforts of the American Pakistani Advocacy Group (APAG), led by its President, Ali Rashid. The organization worked tirelessly to advocate for official recognition of the Pakistani community’s contributions. Their efforts were further supported by the Pakistani Consulate in New York, strengthening diplomatic ties between Pakistan and the state of New York.

Legislative Support for the Resolutions The first resolution, which designates March 23 as Pakistan-American Heritage Day, was introduced in the New York State Assembly by Assemblyman Nader Sage and in the Senate by Senator John Love. The resolution was unanimously passed in both houses of the state legislature. This declaration recognizes Pakistan’s rich cultural heritage and highlights the immense contributions of the Pakistani-American community to New York.

Similarly, the second resolution, which recognizes March 19 as Pakistan-American Business Day, was also spearheaded by Assemblyman Nader Sage in the Assembly and Senator John Lew in the Senate. This resolution acknowledges the vital role of Pakistani-American entrepreneurs and businesses in the economic growth of New York, as well as their contribution to creating jobs and enhancing the diversity of the state’s business landscape.

Contributions of the Pakistani-American Community The resolutions highlight the achievements of the Pakistani-American community across multiple sectors, including:

  • Education: Many Pakistani-Americans hold prestigious positions in academia and contribute significantly to educational advancements in New York.
  • Medicine & Science: Pakistani-origin doctors, scientists, and researchers are at the forefront of medical and technological innovations.
  • Technology & Engineering: The community has produced highly skilled professionals who have made substantial contributions to the IT and engineering sectors.
  • Business & Entrepreneurship: Pakistani-American businesses, from small enterprises to large corporations, play a crucial role in New York’s economic ecosystem.
  • Arts & Culture: Through literature, music, and cultural festivals, the Pakistani-American community enriches New York’s multicultural identity.

Economic Impact and Business Recognition The designation of March 19 as Pakistan-American Business Day underscores the economic and developmental contributions of Pakistani-American entrepreneurs. Their businesses not only generate employment opportunities but also foster trade between Pakistan and New York. These entrepreneurs have played a crucial role in making New York’s neighborhoods more vibrant and economically prosperous.

Additionally, the resolution appreciates the charitable contributions of the Pakistani-American community, recognizing their efforts in social services, philanthropy, and disaster relief programs. Their continued involvement in civic engagement has helped bridge gaps between communities and strengthened the social fabric of New York State.

High-Level Diplomatic Acknowledgment The passage of these resolutions saw the participation of high-ranking Pakistani diplomats. Pakistani Ambassador to the United States, Rizwan Saeed Sheikh, and Pakistani Consul General in New York, Amir Ahmed Atuzai, attended the New York State Assembly and Senate sessions in Albany to introduce the resolutions.

Their presence was warmly welcomed and honored by the New York State Legislature, reflecting the deepening ties between the two regions. APAG President Ali Rashid was also present at the session, celebrating this historic recognition.

Statements from Pakistani Officials Ambassador Rizwan Saeed Sheikh expressed his appreciation for the passage of these resolutions, particularly highlighting the importance of March 19, Pakistan-American Business Day, in fostering stronger economic relations between Pakistan and New York. He emphasized that such initiatives provide a solid foundation for enhancing trade, investment, and business collaborations between Pakistani and American enterprises.

Additionally, he reaffirmed his commitment to working closely with the New York State Legislature to further strengthen Pakistan’s economic and cultural ties with New York, often referred to as the economic capital of the world.

The Ambassador extended his gratitude to the members of the New York State Assembly and Senate for their unanimous support. He specifically commended Assemblyman Nader Sage and Senator John Lew for their leadership and efforts in championing these historic resolutions.

Future Prospects and Continued Engagement The passage of these resolutions sets a precedent for further recognition and facilitation of Pakistani-American interests in New York. It opens doors for greater business collaboration, educational exchanges, and cultural engagement between Pakistan and the United States.

Key Takeaways

  • March 23, 2025, will be observed as Pakistan-American Heritage Day, celebrating the rich cultural contributions of the Pakistani community in New York.
  • March 19, 2025, will be recognized as Pakistan-American Business Day, acknowledging the economic impact of Pakistani-American entrepreneurs.
  • The resolutions were passed unanimously, reflecting bipartisan support for recognizing the Pakistani-American community.
  • APAG, under the leadership of Ali Rashid, played a crucial role in advocating for these designations.
  • Pakistani diplomats and community leaders continue to work towards strengthening Pakistan-New York ties in business, education, and culture.

Conclusion The recognition of Pakistan-American Heritage Day and Pakistan-American Business Day marks a significant milestone for the Pakistani-American community. It showcases their achievements, cultural contributions, and economic influence in one of the world’s most dynamic states. With this recognition, the Pakistani diaspora in New York gains a stronger voice and platform for advancing community interests, fostering international partnerships, and strengthening bilateral relations between Pakistan and the United States.
