Earlier, UK envoy to Pakistan Christian Turner has also participated in an international skiing event in Malam Jabba.
Turner congratulated the Pakistan Air Force and the Winter Sports Federation Pakistan for organizing the event.
“I’ve been told I’m the first British High Commissioner to visit the resort in 15 years or so, and I want to continue travelling all around Pakistan as I get to know this wonderful country.”
