According to Mr. Royston; his family and several of his friends warned him to not to visit Pakistan due to the hovering rumors against Pakistan, But the motivation of Mr. Javed Iqbal and the commitment of all 4 members of Global Quest was so strong and finally they came to Pakistan and engaged a trophy hunting and stayed in Pakistan for 10 days and travelled by road from Islamabad to Khunjerab Pass and back. During their visit, travel and trophy hunting; they visited local markets, had local food, walked for miles in the outskirts of Khunjerab National Park in search of the trophy and they enjoyed bonfire and barbecue with local community members along with traditional music and folk dance including their participation. Their comments regarding Pakistan after this visit are so worthy for the world to know that real Pakistan is a different and peaceful place where people love and respect their foreigner friends.Copied from Flying JIB Studio
