Pakistanis take a slice of FIFA World Cup fun. Hundreds of Pakistani students and ex-pats in Qatar are working tirelessly to ensure the success of the FIFA World Cup 2022.
Along with many students who are enthusiastically assisting in engineering, IT, hospitality, and broadcasting for the success of this major event, the Pakistani community in Qatar is also supporting this much-anticipated and watched tournament.
