00:03:21doctoral programs in

00:03:27throughout Afghanistan,
00:04:00by the grace of God, the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan has carried out activities,

00:04:07From each province, through the municipality, whatever
00:04:10revenue comes in, not one afghani is transferred
00:04:14elsewhere. All of it is spent
00:04:17on the construction and beautification
00:04:20of that city, for the adornment of that city.
00:04:24For example, from Bamiyan province, whatever
00:04:27revenue comes in,
00:04:31it is spent on the construction of Bamiyan city itself,
00:04:34and other large development
00:04:37projects are funded through
00:04:40the national budget. On the other hand, the governor of Bamiyan

00:04:48academic capabilities of teachers, and provide better educational
00:04:51opportunities for young people, he considered the Islamic system in the country
00:04:55a great divine blessing. The Islamic
00:04:58system has many achievements,
