Hitching a ride on the "Belt and Road" policy, 7 Pakistani doctors have been recruited to Huang Shi
Dr. Miri was born in 1986 in Karachi, a beautiful and historic city of culture, one of the key cities along the Belt and Road Initiative. He said he has loved China since he was a child, and his mind has been filled with all kinds of Chinese stories. In 2012, he came to China to study for a master's degree in software engineering at Chongqing University and a doctorate in computer science at Sichuan University in 2016.
In November 2020, Miri, who received a doctorate, saw from the media that Huanggang Normal University was openly recruiting foreign researchers, including many preferential policies for countries along the "Belt and Road", such as scientific research subsidies, "Belt and Road" special scholarships, Chinese government scholarships and Pakistani government scholarships. He immediately handed in his materials, because the major was more cutting-edge and the academic achievements were more, he was immediately hired by the School of Computer Science of Huanggang Normal University, becoming the first Pakistani staff member of the school.

Shi Fanqi, who is 4 years younger than Miri, is a student at Northeast Agricultural University, and has studied for 7 years in master's and doctoral studies, all of which are pharmacology, and the research direction is the targeted analysis and research of traditional Chinese medicine in computer applications. He came to HuangShi at the introduction of a friend.
Over the past year, 7 phDs like them have come to work in Huanggang Normal University, including 4 in the School of Computer Science and 3 in the School of Business.
Miri said that he came to the small city of Huanggang from Chongqing, Chengdu, Nanjing and other big cities, and has gradually adapted to the environment here, found the benefits of quiet, good air quality, strong human touch, slow pace of life and other benefits of small cities, and is ready to work and live here for a long time.

The joining of the four Pakistani doctors has made the School of Computer Science feel strong and strong, which is beneficial to improving the academic level and international vision of the college, Hu Zhihua said.
It is reported that from this semester onwards, Miri has also taken on teaching tasks, teaching two English courses for computer science majors every week for undergraduates. Previously, the course was taught by Chinese teachers, and there was always a certain gap in professional English to a greater or lesser extent. Dr. Miri not only has a good English, but also a good Chinese, and the lectures are mainly in English, and when students do not understand it, they use Chinese, which is very popular with students.

After a period of school, Mr. Miri's classes have become famous throughout the school, and whenever he attends classes, several teachers in the college often sit under the stage to listen to the lectures.
Talk about feelings: China Railway's name is not worthy of the word to treat us like brothers
When it comes to their feelings in China, Miri and Shi Fanqi seem to open the conversation box and gush endlessly.
Participate in cultural and sports activities
Shi Fanqi said that there is an old saying in China called "a hundred smells are better than a sight", we read when we were children in the books there are a lot of introductions to China, such as Chinese is very brave, Chinese is very industrious, Chinese is very friendly to us, China is very magical, there are birds that can talk, etc. Come to China to see these is a new experience, through personal experience to understand what is the real Sino-Pakistani friendship, that is, like brothers, in China like at home.
In 2014, when Shi Fanqi applied for the Northeast Agricultural University in Italy, South Korea and China, he was admitted to a number of universities in three countries, and because he preferred China, he decided to study in China.
Over the past 7 years, he has become more and more obsessed with China, not only loves China's climate, Chinese cuisine, but also bought a mobile phone in Huanggang, applied for a number and WeChat, and now, when talking to his family in Pakistan, he uses WeChat, and his family is usually inseparable from WeChat every day under his influence.
Wang Libing, secretary of the party committee of Huanggang Normal University, said that hiring high-level employees from countries along the "Belt and Road" is not only a positive response to national policies, but also a practical need for Huangshi to accelerate the pace of internationalization. He introduced that in the next step, Huang Shi will strive to recruit Pakistani undergraduate and graduate students.
