Shot Pakistani schoolgirl in video message

MALALA Yousafzai, the Pakistani schoolgirl shot in the head by the Taliban for campaigning for girls' education, says she is getting better in her first public statement.

"Today you can see that I am alive. I can speak, I can see you, I can see everyone and I am getting better day by day," said the 15-year-old in a video message made before she underwent surgery on her skull on Saturday.

Speaking clearly in English, she said: "It's just because of the prayers of people. Because all people - men, women, children - all of them have prayed for me.

"And because of all these prayers God has given me this new life - a second life. And I want to serve. I want to serve the people. I want every girl, every child, to be educated. For that reason, we have organised the Malala Fund."

In an attack that drew worldwide condemnation, a Taliban gunman shot Malala at point-blank range as her school bus travelled through Pakistan's Swat Valley on October 9.

Surgeons in Pakistan saved her life with an initial operation to relieve the pressure on her brain before she was flown to Britain to be treated at Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Birmingham, central England.

Doctors say the bullet grazed Malala's brain and travelled through her head and neck before lodging in her left shoulder.

In the surgery this weekend, she had a titanium plate fitted to replace part of her skull and surgeons inserted an implant to help restore her hearing in her left ear.

The Malala Fund is a charity set up in late 2012 to promote education for girls.

Malala first rose to prominence aged 11 with a blog for the BBC's Urdu-language service charting her life under the Taliban.

Since her attempted murder, millions of people have signed petitions supporting her cause, while the United Nations declared a global Malala Day last November.
