'Danish people say no to blasphemous caricatures'
2008-10-21
The vast majority of Danish citizens are against the blasphemous caricatures and have been campaigning for a proper legislation in this regard, according to a Danish literati delegation led by Copenhagen University Professor Dr Lissi Rasmussen.
Bet he writes a swell opera, too ...
Talking to Daily Times, Dr Safet Bektovic, Naveed Baig, Imam Fateh Alev, Tauqeer Hussain and Viels Tvilling, who were on a 10-day study tour and will leave on Tuesday (today), said they were associated with the Islamic-Christian Study Centre, Denmark. They said they had visited several Muslim-majority countries and their visit to Pakistan was aimed at understanding its culture and traditions. The delegation visited various cities and spoke to students and teachers at universities across the country.

Dr Lissi said that they had been travelling through Pakistan without any security and had met many people. She said, "Pakistanis are nice and we enjoyed our stay in Lahore the most. It is a good omen that the Pakistani youth are hopeful about their future in spite of a tough time the country is currently facing." She said that a student-exchange programme between the two countries was in the pipeline.

Tauqeer Hussain said, "Seeing women working in various fields of life is a pleasant surprise for me. Pollution is spoiling Lahore's beauty." Dr Safet Bektovic said that they had enjoyed Pakistani food. He said, "I liked biryani and naan the most." Imam Fateh said, "Pakistanis, as compared to the people of other Muslim countries, are more familiar with day-to-day happenings. Media here also enjoys freedom." Naveed Baig said, "I enjoyed visiting the Badshahi Masjid, the Lahore Fort and the Lahore Museum."
