SUMMARY:National Day: Republic of South Africa\, 2023
DESCRIPTION:South Africa’s national day\, also known as Freedom Day\, is a public holiday celebrated annually on April 27th.  \nIt commemorates the country’s first democratic elections\, which were held on this day in 1994\, marking the end of apartheid and the beginning of a new era of freedom\, democracy\, and human rights.  \nFor decades\, South Africa was a divided nation with a history of racial segregation and discrimination known as apartheid. The system was designed to keep white people in power and suppress the rights of non-white people. \nHowever\, a decades-long struggle against the apartheid government culminated in its dismantling and the establishment of a democratic system that gave all South Africans equal rights.  \nOn April 27\, 1994\, millions of South Africans of all races and backgrounds went to the polls to vote in the country’s first democratic elections. This marked the end of decades of struggle\, sacrifice\, and courage by countless people who fought for a free\, just\, and democratic society.  \nToday\, Freedom Day presents an opportunity for South Africans to reflect on their hard-fought democracy and\, above all\, their constitution\, which is considered one of the most progressive and inclusive constitutions in the world.  \nThis year’s Freedom Day will be observed under the theme of “Consolidating & Safeguarding Democratic Gains”.  \nSouth African President Cyril Ramaphosa will deliver a keynote address on Thursday at 11h00 SAT. The programme for the day will feature cultural performances\, a South African Air Force flypast and other ceremonial and celebratory elements.  \nThe Freedom Day celebrations programme will be broadcast on all major news channels and on all presidency and government digital platforms. \nHere is a message from South Africa’s High Commission for 2023’s celebration:

SUMMARY:National Day: Islamic Republic of Pakistan\, 2023
DESCRIPTION:Pakistan’s national day\, called Pakistan Day\, is set to kick off on Wednesday. \nPakistan Day marks the adoption of the Lahore Resolution in 1940\, which called for the creation of an independent Muslim state in South Asia. \nIn Pakistan\, the main celebration reaches a crescendo in the form of a military parade held in the capital city of Islamabad – normally attended by the president. \nOn this day\, special prayers are offered in mosques and other places of worship for the prosperity and well-being of the country. \nAnother notable event is the changing of the guard at the mausoleums of Muhammad Iqbal\, who is commonly known as Allama Iqbal\, and Muhammad Ali Jinnah\, who is also known as Quaid-e-Azam\, meaning ‘Great Leader’. \nIqbal was a poet and philosopher\, as well as a prominent political figure. He was a staunch advocate of the rights of the Muslim minority in India and is considered one of the founding fathers of Pakistan. \nMeanwhile\, Jinnah was instrumental in the founding of Pakistan after he unified the Muslim League\, which was a political party in India. Jinnah’s leadership of the Muslim League and his tireless efforts to negotiate with the British government and other political leaders of India eventually led to the creation of Pakistan on August 14\, 1947. \nIn celebration of Pakistan Day\, here is a poem by Iqbal about helping the Other and understanding their struggles. \n  \nSympathy \nPerched on the branch of a tree \nWas a nightingale sad and lonely \n“The night has drawn near”\, He was thinking \n“I passed the day in flying around and feeding \nHow can I reach up to the nest \nDarkness has enveloped everything”? \nHearing the nightingale wailing thus \nA glow-worm lurking nearby spoke thus \n“With my heart and soul ready to help I am \nThough only an insignificant insect I am \nNever mind if the night is dark \nI shall shed light if the way is dark \nGod has bestowed a torch on me \nHe has given a shining lamp to me \nThe good in the world only those are \nReady to be useful to others who are
