By Kazi Zulkader Siddiqui, 671/Latif

Saiyid Muhammad Kalim, kit no. 608/Ayub House joined Cadet College Petaro in 1964 in 8th Class and left the college in 1969 after completing his Intermediate.

He was born on 3 December 1951, and got married to Mrs. Saira in 1978. They have six children - Salman (kit no. 92116), Imran, Rizwan (kit no. 94104), Tayyaba, Tathhir, and Sarah.

Kalim was my batch mate. Since he was in the neighbouring Ayub House, we used to interact quite often.

After leaving Petaro, Kalim joined NED Engineering College, and graduated as a Mechanical Engineer in 1974. After working with different industries, Kalim acquired a specialization in the field of vibration monitoring and control. He is one of the very few people in Pakistan who are considered to be an authority in this field.

For the past several years, he set up his own vibration engineering consulting and services company under the name of Petarian Engineering Services. He is the Chief Executive of this company.

Kalim's elder brother Muhammad Waseem, kit no. 340 is also a Petarian.
