sembly who answered their questions regarding the Governments working mecha-
nism and the provision of a platform such as (DDF) which would have a sustainable

I would never let something
like not being able to walk stand
in my way of earning bread and
butter for my family. I have big
dreams for them and myself
The story of Safeeh Ur Rehman
is one of struggle and a lot of
heart.
Hailing from the poor District of Nowshera in Khyber
Pakhtunkhwa, Safeeh was adored in his village not
because he wore crutches, but because he drove a
Motor Cycle Rickshaw (Chingchi) and always took his
passengers to their destinations with a huge smile.
Safeeh never let his handicap become an excuse for
not living his life fully.
Barely breaking even with a meagre Rs. 200 a day from
his Chingchi service, it was always with a heavy heart
that Safeeh would go home to his wife and two sons.

My condition is only of the
body, but my heart and soul is
ready to plunge foward
Safeeh was the frst choice of his fellow community organization
members to undertake the specialized skills training at Applied
Technologies Institute at Dina. He had a plan in place long before
reaching Dina and enlisted in the Auto Electrician course immedi-
ately. His drive was to learn the trade, excel at class, and graduate
with certifcation.
He explained, I came to the training with a purpose, I want to
start up my own Auto Electrician shop on the GT Road Highway, I
wish to keep working for myself but with better fnancial returns,
I know the demand of the market, and I know with that with my
newly acquired skill base and with a little courage I will be able
to make this plan work
Safeeh Ur Rehman is currently enrolled
in the 3rd Batch of the LACIP Skill
Empowerment Initiative at ATIN and
will be graduating in May, 2014 as an
Auto Electrician.
