Pakistan won a total of 17 gold, 25 silver and 14 bronze medals while competing in a week-long Games where 7500 athletes from 180 countries around the world participated in Special Olympics Summer Games 2011 at Athens.
This Pakistan squad must be appreciated very much. Cash prizes and other incentives should be given to this 82-member contingent who participated in eight sports including athletics, aquatics, badminton, basketball, bocce, cycling, football and table tennis.
I hope government, multinational companies and media will honour these heroes.
