Imran Khan answers a question from a Pakistani student who asks for advice on what she should do with her education. Imran answers but saying consider what a degree will mean to you and what reasons you are studying for. He addresses all the Pakistani’s in the room saying that they are a small minority of the privilaged few who are able to make a difference in the country of Pakistan. Even though other countries may say Pakistan is going through the worst of times Imran believes it’s the most exciting time as 89% of the population want a change.
