Written by: Aqsa Sediqi

Those who are successful in their business, who always think about the progress of their work. AEPO’s writer/producer has talked to Hazaratullah, a resident of Kabul city.

Hazratullah says, “When I was a medical faculty’s student at the university, it was difficult for all of us to get a turn for practical work in the university. I spent 700 thousand Afghanis and I opened an educational center near the university. I prepared all the materials and equipment needed for medical university and I hired some teachers.

This center has 15 classes and 10 students are busy in practice in each class. The monthly fee of each student is 1000-2000 Afghanis.”

Initiative in business:

Initiative in business has a special value. When someone faces an unexpected situation, he/she gets confused and could not do anything and some of them might fail in their business but some others have found a solution to such problems.

AEPO’s writer/producer has talked to Laila Alokozai, a resident of Kabul city. Laila says about her business, “I had economic problems and could proceed with my education. Then I started sewing Afghanis clothes and I was paying from the benefit of my business for my study.

Some other women are also busy at work with me who are not allowed to work outside the home. I design the dress and they sew them at home. During the spread of coronavirus, the government announced quarantine, and all businessmen faced problems but I did not want to lose my business. I continue my work as usual but this time with a new idea.

I considered that the need for facemask was more sensed, I and my colleagues started to prepare facemasks. we could prepare about 300 facemasks daily. We are getting about 10 Afghanis to benefit from each facemask.”
