TALOQAN (Pajhwok): A youth in northern Takhar province, who has made a jeep car named ‘Aahoo’, said if supported, he could produce more such cars.
Hayatullah, a student of Vocational Technical Institute and a resident of Taloqan city, succeeded in making his Aahoo jeep car during the course of six months using his own resources.
“I spent about 400,000 afs on this car. If supported, I can compete with foreign products, but I need government support”.
Concerned about the lack of resources for creative youth, Hayatullah said if the creativity and ability of the youth was used, they would no longer want to embark on dangerous journey to other countries.
Taloqan city resident also said the government should support such creative youth.
Saddam Hussain, a resident of Takhar, said, the government has responsibility towards the people of this country, especially creative youth and it must support them.
He said if such people and youth were supported, it could help the economy and create jobs.
Maulavi ZabihullahAnsar, Information and Culture Department head, assured his support for creative youth and said efforts were ongoing to change such creative works into industries.
He added: “Today, we use expensive foreign products while such capacities exist in the country and they should be supported”.
