    These resolutions represent a salient milestone, achieved through the dedicated efforts of the American Pakistani Advocacy Group (APAG) and its President Mr. Ali Rashid.

    Ambassador of Pakistan to the United States, H.E. Rizwan Saeed Sheikh, and Consul General Aamer Ahmed Atozai attended the sessions of the New York State Assembly and Senate in Albany. Both dignitaries, along with APAG President Ali Rashid, were duly recognized and honored in the two legislatures.

    BY: Adal Hussain, Chief  Editor for World Liberty TV, @ Northern Boulevard Queens NY, Sun July 27th 2025

    Jackson Heights and Corona come alive with Colombia’s vibrant colors, sounds, and spirit on Sunday, July 27th, 2025.

    The Colombian Day Parade marches along Northern Blvd from 69th Street in Jackson Heights to 89th Street in Corona.

    This annual celebration marks Colombian Independence Day and promises a day filled which was filled with cultural pride and community festivities.

    The roots of Colombian Independence Day trace back to a pivotal moment in history. Amidst colonial rule, Latin America, including Colombia, faced oppression under a strict caste system imposed by Spanish rulers.

    The struggle for independence gained momentum in the early 19th century, fueled by events like Napoleon’s invasion of Spain and the imprisonment of King Ferdinand VII.

    Leaders like Simón Bolívar rallied the people in their fight for freedom, culminating in the historic Battle of Boyacá in 1819.

    The Colombian flag, with its bold yellow, blue, and red colors, symbolizes the nation’s rich resources, seas, rivers, and the blood shed by patriots in the quest for independence.

    This symbolism resonates deeply during the Colombian Day Parade, where the community gathers to honor their heritage and commemorate the sacrifices of their ancestors.

    Beyond its historical significance, the Colombian Day Parade in Jackson Heights and Corona is a testament to the vibrant Colombian community’s unity and pride.

    The parade route showcases traditional Colombian music, dance, and attire and features local businesses and organizations that contribute to the neighborhood’s cultural tapestry.

    There were Thousands marching and watching the Colombian Independence Day Jackson Heights Colombian Day Parade -2025.

    Many Floats, cultural, business and sponsored business floats all marching in the parade, folklore dancers from Colombia and its regions in attendance.

    Many Colombians dressed in their cultural and folklore outfits marching and Parading and showcasing their cultural to the world. I met many people in attendance from Bogota, Cali, Cartagena and Medellin and many other parts of Colombia who traveled to be part of the festivities.

    Interview with Former Governor Andrew Cuomo NYC Mayoral candidate July -2025

    Interview with Former Governor Andrew Cuomo NYC Mayoral candidate July -2025

    Comments are closed

    BY: Adal Hussain, Chief  Editor. @ Northern Blvd, Queens NY During Colombia day Parade July 27th 2025.

    Andrew M. Cuomo served as the 56th Governor of New York State.Born into a proud Italian-American family and raised in Queens, Governor Cuomo is dedicated to public service and has the proven leadership skills to make government work for the people of New York City.

    The son of Matilda and the late Governor Mario Cuomo, Andrew Cuomo learned from a young age the importance of fighting for equality and opportunity. His father’s legacy of public service remains an inspiration.

    After graduating from Fordham University and Albany Law School, Governor Cuomo led his father’s successful campaign for governor, and later served as an assistant district attorney in Manhattan.

    In 1986 he founded Housing Enterprise for the Less Privileged (HELP) in Brooklyn, NY – a single shelter for families that has since grown to become a national leader in the fight against homelessness, serving people of all backgrounds, including veterans, survivors of domestic violence, people with health challenges and disabilities, and seniors. Governor Cuomo’s dedication to and tenacity on behalf of the homeless led him to serve as Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Secretary in President Clinton’s administration.

    He was elected Attorney General of New York in 2006 and later served as Governor for 11 years. There, Andrew Cuomo took the theory of progressive government and made it a functional reality, while simultaneously reimagining and rebuilding New York’s outdated infrastructure and putting New York’s fiscal house in order for the first time in a generation.

    Under Andrew Cuomo’s leadership, New York once again became the nation’s beacon for social progress. As a result of his time in office, we have a stronger economy, a cleaner environment, a fairer criminal justice system, and more high school graduates attending college than ever before.

    Again and again, he successfully fought for the people of New York and delivered accomplishments including marriage equality, the codification of Roe v. Wade into New York State law, the most comprehensive paid family leave policy in the nation, a $15 minimum wage, free college tuition for New York’s middle class, and the nation’s strongest gun violence prevention laws.

    At the same time, Governor Cuomo demonstrated that progressive politics does not mean irresponsible spending. He passed timely, fiscally responsible budgets and enacted a fairer, more progressive tax code, aggressively lowering taxes for the middle class and creating a permanent cap on property taxes. Governor Cuomo also made New York a more attractive place to do business, by cutting corporate and manufacturing taxes to the lowest levels in decades and lowering the estate tax.

    Governor Cuomo successfully oversaw the most ambitious infrastructure program in the country, rebuilding LaGuardia and JFK airports, opening Moynihan train hall, completing the East Side access project, expanding the Second Avenue Subway and the Jacob K. Javits Center, and building the new Mario Cuomo and Kosciuszko bridges. He also made historic investments in education, economic development and healthcare, adding more than 1 million previously uninsured New Yorkers to health insurance plans.

    During Andrew Cuomo’s tenure, the state had its highest credit rating in forty years, unemployment was down in every region, and for a solid decade state spending was kept under a 2 percent cap.

    And during the dark days of COVID it was his voice and his steady hand that helped lead this state and the nation out of the once-in-a-century pandemic and through recovery.

    Andrew Cuomo is the father to three daughters: Mariah, Cara, and Michaela, and his dog, a Northern Inuit named Captain.

    We had the pleasure interviewing and hearing Andrew Cuomo’s Mayoral Candidate, speech at the Colombian Day Parade, Queens New York.

And what better playground than the Children’s Show, where color, personality, and practicality come together in a joyful celebration of kidswear?

    Organized by IEG USA and produced by FB International, the Children’s Show has solidified its status as a must-attend event on the global kidswear calendar. After a successful venue shift last season, the show will once again occupy 20,000 square feet of exhibit space at Chelsea Industrial, 60 leading brands from around the world will present their Spring/Summer 2026 collections, each showcasing a unique interpretation of summer fashion through the lens of childhood wonder and design innovation.—including the USA, Italy, France, Portugal, Australia, the UK, Spain, Brazil, Canada, Sweden, Denmark, and Germany.

    Chosen for its accessible ground-floor layout and modern industrial charm, Chelsea Industrial offers a smooth, enjoyable experience for exhibitors and guests alike.

    But the Children’s Show isn’t just about two days of stylish showcases—it’s about building lasting community and year-round support. From marketing guidance to collaborative projects, the show empowers participating brands with real tools for growth.

    One of the event’s standout moments is the runway show, styled by the creative director Aleksandra Ataca. The Summer 2025 edition will feature the best of Spring/Summer 2026 collections, presented by a diverse cast of 40 child models from the US and Europe. The runway is not only a feast for the eyes but also a powerful platform for spotting future trends and must-have styles.

    The excitement doesn’t stop there. Attendees can also look forward to industry panels, creative workshops, and exclusive networking events—with even more surprises to be revealed soon.

    It was a well-attended fashion show, hundreds in attendance and only standing room. Kid models in attendance from all over the world showcasing designs and outfits never seen before.
