Qi, a Chinese ceramics artisan, has been showcasing the traditional art of Jun porcelain production in Central China's Henan Province to foreign students. The unique feature of Jun porcelain is its unpredictable color transformation during firing, making each piece distinct. Qi believes that this process reflects the concept of "the unity of heaven and humanity" from traditional Chinese philosophy. He notes that artisans are working to revitalize the heritage by incorporating new techniques and themes into their work, such as creating national treasures for international events like the Shanghai Cooperation Organization summit in Astana, Kazakhstan. As a result, more universities are inviting these artisans to teach courses on campus, sparking interest among young people in the cultural significance and artistic conception of Jun porcelain.

This opportunity is available due to Pakistan and Kyrgyzstan's growing ties, which were strengthened by a recent visit from Kyrgyzstan's Prime Minister to Pakistan as part of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO). Over 5,000 Pakistani students have returned to their studies in Kyrgyzstan after fleeing amid attacks on universities and hostels in May. Despite this, thousands of Pakistani students remain in Kyrgyzstan, with over 11,000 studying at various universities, including more than 3,000 who have completed their education and returned home.
