Member:
Any individual regardless of his religion, sect, creed or colour can be a member of Positive Pakistan Foundation. He/she has to just fill in our membership form and submit or email it to us  at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. which is our official email address. No membership fee has been charged. The individual, by filling in our form, vows to be positive in their attitude and to help Positive Pakistan Foundation spread its cause. Any member of Positive Pakistan Foundation can further be a mission holder, provided he/she proves to be positive and committed with the mission and exercises good performance. Simply, speaking, the further growth of a member to be Mission Holder, Ambassador, Revolutionary and Derwesh depends on following three aspects.
1- Character (Personal Traits)
2- Commitment with the mission (of Positive Pakistan)
3- Work Performance (while undertaking activities/work/projects of Positive Pakistan).

Mission Holder:
If a person is found to be positive, committed and he/she works for the organization actively, they are offered to be a Mission-Holder. They have to take an oath of the Mission-Holder and submit a nominal fee of Rs.100 to the Finance Secretary. It is compulsory requirement for a member to be a Mission-Holder if  he/she is to be assigned any special responsibility, like Cabinet Member, Brigade Head etc.

Ambassador:
The further and third level of membership is to be an Ambassador. Normally, the Brigade President (City's President) recommends Cabinet to give consent to make a Mission-Holder an Ambassador. When Central Cabinet or President of Positive Pakistan Foundation grants permission that person is asked to take oath in any meeting of the Foundation. The fee to be an Ambassador is Rs 300/-. An Ambassador is required to possess a remarkable character, to be very positive in his/her attitude, very committed with the mission and to undertake work/activities/projects with great care and consideration.

Revolutionary:
When an Ambassador is found to be a man of exemplary character, proves undaunted commitment with the mission and exercises up to the mark performance in doing work, activities and projects of the Foundation, the Revolutionary Council (which is comprised of existing Revolutionaries) itself offers him/her to be the Revolutionary. They are asked to fill revolutionary form and donate a fund of Rs 500 to the Network. There are so far only 4 Revolutionaries in Positive Pakistan Foundation.

Darwesh:
This is the final but secret status of a member of Positive Pakistan. Hardly few would know how many darweshes are there in the foundation. Its criteria is unknown and only the existing derwesh can nominate a revolutionary to be the “darwesh". No darwesh is allowed to publicize his/her status lest they should be deprived off their status. Being a darwesh means his/her commitment is tested and they can sacrifice even their lives for their mission.

Some Important Rules:

• In a city or educational institution where we have only one or few friends or members, we nominate any one fellow temporarily as Brigade Coordinator (for a city) or Eyrie Coordinator (for an educational institution).
• To be even a Brigade Coordinator or Eyrie Coordinator, one must be at least the Mission-Holder of Positive Pakistan Foundation.
• When a person is nominated as Brigade Coordinator or Eyrie Coordinator, he/she will, then be asked to work hard in his/her area and make new members. When there would be at least 5 more members, a Cabinet will be established comprising those members and the designation of Coordinator will be replaced with that of a President.

"I am M. Jassar Aftab and I am a student of DVM (Doctor of Veterinary Science) at University of Agriculture Faisalabad. My two research papers entitled "Buffalo-Milk Production Potential and its Comparative Milk Qualities" and "Camel and Small Ruminants: Assessment of Usefulness of Their Milk With Some Dairying Prospects" were submitted to IDF International Symposium on Sheep, Goat and other non-Cow Milk to be held in Athens Greece. Both my papers were accepted for presentation and I was invited to attend the conference. Normally in such cases Higher Education Commission provides financial support to researchers but in my case HEC refused as I was an undergraduate student. Some non-governmental and governmental organizations related to dairy sector and youth development were also requested but there was no positive response.

At last I discussed the whole matter with Mr. Abid Iqbal Khari who helped me a lot and arranged financial support but it was too late as there was one week left and visa could not be issued. So it was decided that although I was not be able to attend conference but I should submit registration fee in order to publish my papers for the conference. So, on the request of Mr. Abid Iqbal Khari, my registration fee was submitted by Mr. Abdullah Bin Khurram and Mr. Qasim Khokher.

I may be the first undergraduate student in Pakistan whose research work has been accepted at international level specially in buffalo and Camel sector which unfortunately have always been neglected. I am not disappointed and I am determined to continue my work.

I am highly thankful to Positive Pakistan Foundation and its fellows Mr. Abdullah Bin Khurram and Mr. Qasim Khokher for their sincere support."
