Munir Ahmad Khan had both intelligence AND wisdom.

He had a sense of social responsibility that his much (over) credited counterpart

seems to lack (no flash and cash here). With WMD a sense of that responsibility

is essential.

It is a shame that we do not give credit to such people till after they leave us.

Regards to his family.


Ras

Hi,

HP Sahib, I never worked for KANUPP, nor for PAEC.

Regards.

For a prior instance of the same kind of puffery on Chowk see R M S Azam’s

When Mountains Move

The more things change, the more they stay the same ....

Mansoor Sahib!

Did you work in KANUPP Karachi with Dr. Munir and later moved to Islamabad?

I am just curious. I know one Mansoor Ahmed very well and he is fairly popular in Pakistan scientist community and now resides in Islamabad.

Nice try author!

The old father of islamic bomb is in the doghouse...and so its time for a new father.

All part of improving pakistan`s image one supposes.

What about those chinese bomb designs handed to the libyans?
What were chinese bomb design photocopies doing in the great Dr. Munir`s pakistan???

Mansoor sahib: Thanks for writing an important article that does justice to the calibre of the subject, Dr. Munir. You bring out very well the strength of his character that matched his intellectual abilities. His contributions to the defense of Pakistan are truly of a historic nature.

It is to the benefit of the Pakistan and its science that the genuine scientists, unlike AQK, be brought to light, if not lime light.
True scientists are in science for its own sake not to acquire real estate and investment properties!
