Mr. Haseeb has always been a champion of Pakistan-China friendship. With a desire to promote people-to-people contact between the two nations, Mr Haseeb conceived the idea of this TV program. He realized that television was the only medium that would enable the people of both countries to develop a better understanding of each other’s culture and history; hence, A Journey of Friendship was envisioned.
