Now, the world has condoled the demise of Prime Karim Aga Khan, who was 88 and had become the Imam when he was 20. There is so much to be said about him but I can only touch upon some personal memories and experiences that relate to the work of the Aga Khan Development Network (AKDN) in the little space that I have. Some prominent Ismailis have been our friends and acquaintances. I particularly want to mention Shamsh Kassim-Lakha, the founding president of the Aga Khan Hospital in Karachi.
My wife Sadiqa had worked for the Aga Khan Foundation and was chosen to be the first executive director of the NGO Resource Centre that the foundation was setting up. She was sent to Geneva to be interviewed by His Highness himself and she fondly remembers that meeting.
