Dubai’s Madame Tussauds museum has unveiled its first-ever wax figure of a Pakistani personality, commemorating the iconic former Prime Minister, Benazir Bhutto. The lifelike figure, adorned in a green and white dress, pays tribute to the trailblazing politician, who holds a significant place in Pakistan’s political history. Benazir Bhutto, the first woman to lead a democratic government in a Muslim-majority country, left an indelible mark on the world stage before her tragic assassination during an election campaign in 2007.
Crafting this historical wax figure was a meticulous process, taking weeks for artists to ensure precision in body measurements and artwork, capturing the essence of the distinguished leader. The unveiling marks a milestone for Pakistan as it honors the enduring legacy of Benazir Bhutto, symbolizing her lasting impact on the global political landscape.
Meanwhile, Foreign Minister Bilawal Bhutto Zardari’s upcoming meetings with Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan and other dignitaries will strengthen the fraternal ties and promote mutually rewarding economic cooperation between Pakistan and the UAE. This visit also provides an opportunity to extend condolences to the UAE leadership on the passing of Sheikh Saeed bin Zayed, underscoring the strong bond shared between the two nations.
The event highlights Pakistan’s robust engagement with the UAE, while the presence of Benazir Bhutto’s wax figure at Madame Tussauds serves as a testament to the enduring friendship and cooperation between both countries. This historic tribute cements Benazir Bhutto’s place as an emblematic figure, immortalizing her contributions on the global stage.
