  • 'Local Media and Women's Identity Articulation'
    Gender Perspectives on the Information Society – South Asia Pre-WSIS Seminar 2005 IT for Change BACKGROUND Though radio listener ship in Pakistan was steadily diminishing till a decade ago, the arrival of private FM channels in the mid 90s provided a considerable boost to this trend. Currently there are numerous private radio stations operating from throughout the country attracting mostly the younger generation with their heavy focus on entertainment and music based programming. However, one must acknowledge initiatives of some channels that are airing programmes aimed towards providing an alternative to other women’s programmes, which usually portray women in stereotypical. Generally issue-based programmes have failed to capture the attention of the young and the casual listeners of FM channels. But these programmes in Urdu that claim to be high quality, non-sexist and rights-based are said to have given women a chance to express themselves through case studies, oral testimonies and given greater visibility to women achievers as well as sufferers. These programmes cover whole variety of themes including HIV/AIDS, women trafficking, prostitution, drug abuse and reproductive health which in a conservative society like Pakistan’s are considered taboo topics despite the pressing urgency for an open discussion aimed towards empowering women and sensitising men towards a gender just society. This paper focuses on the main argument of if and how radio FM channels can be an effective instrument in putting forward the true face of Pakistani women’s empowerment and will look at the issue of ‘Local Media and Women’s Identity Articulation’ through these questions: • What are the scope and limitations of these channels’ given the fact that they are urban-based? • Who and what determines their policies with special reference to commercialism versus professionalism? • What is their performance vis a vis Pakistani women’s portrayal and projection? • How these channels are (or are not) reinforcing stereotypical images of women.

Pakistan. 2Associate Professor, School of Media and Mass Communication, Beacon House National University, Lahore, Pakistan. 3Free Lancer, Department of The Business School, University of Central Punjab, Lahore, Pakistan. 4Program Manager, Pakistan Broadcasting Corporation, Islamabad, Pakistan. ABSTRACT: This study investigates the role of Pakistan Broadcasting Corporation (PBC), commonly known as Radio Pakistan, in influencing socioeconomic development in Central Punjab (2008-2013). The first of its kind, the study assumes that Radio Pakistan has substantially contributed in socioeconomic development in Central Punjab, catering to social (healthcare) needs of Pakistani public. Listener is dependent on radio while radio independently produces programs to cater to audience’s needs. The study checked the efficacy of programs through the interviews of programmers and an audience satisfaction survey asking if program policy, topic, guest speaker’s knowledge of topic, and quality were made to meet/meeting a listener’s needs in the selected territory. Radio Pakistan relies on, what WHO calls, “the practice of development support communication, [which] is a multi- sectoral process of information sharing about development agendas and planned actions.

  • Desert Operations
    FM 90-3/FMFM 7-27 DESERT OPERATIONS Headquarters Department of the Army US Marine Corps Distribution Restriction: Approved for public release; distribution is unlimited. FM 90-3 CHAPTER 1 THE ENVIRONMENT AND ITS EFFECTS ON PERSONNEL AND EQUIPMENT This chapter describes the desert environment and how it affects personnel and equipment. CONTENTS Page Section I The Environment . 1-1 Section II Environmental Effects on Personnel . 1-17 Section III Environmental Effects on Equipment . 1-30 Section I. The Environment Successful desert operations require adaptation to the environment and to the limitations its terrain and climate impose. Equipment and tactics must be modified and adapted to a dusty and rugged landscape where temperatures vary from extreme highs down to freezing and where visibility may change from 30 miles to 30 feet in a matter of minutes. Deserts are arid, barren regions of the earth incapable of supporting normal life due to lack of water. See Figure 1-1 for arid regions of the world. Temperatures vary according to latitude and season, from over 136 degrees Fahrenheit in the deserts of Mexico and Libya to the bitter cold of winter in the Gobi (East Asia). In some deserts, day-to-night temperature fluctuation exceeds 70 degrees Fahrenheit. Some species of animal and plant life have adapted successfully to desert conditions where annual rainfall may vary from O to 10 inches. Desert terrain also varies considerably from place to place, the sole common denominator being lack of water with its consequent environmental effects, such as sparse, if any, vegetation. The basic land forms are similar to those in other parts of the world, but the topsoil has been eroded due to a combination of lack 1-1 FM 90-3 of water, heat, and wind to give deserts their characteristic barren appearance.

  • Community Radio a Tool of Social Change: Still a Far Cry in Pakistan
    Community Radio a Tool of Social Change: Still a Far Cry in Pakistan Seemi Naghmana Tahir The potential of Radio as a tool of social development is being utilized throughout the globe, be it developing or developed world. It has a long history of penetration at grassroots through community radio in the western world. In Asia, though community radio is comparatively a new arrival, but over the years, community radio broadcasting has made its roots and playing a vital role in the development of small communities. In Pakistan, radio has long been remained a state monopoly. After the promulgation of PEMRA Ordinance in the year 2002, the electronic media in private sector is emerging at a fast pace. Besides issuing a large number of licenses for FM radio it is catering to the entertainment needs of urban elites only, while community radio is still a far cry in the Country. With the rampant illiteracy, unemployment, ignorance and multiple social and ethnic issues, the usage of radio as an agent to bring about social change is the demand of time. Since the community radio has the potential to ensure maximum community participation in the development processes, therefore in our opinion it is high time for Pakistan to take initiatives in this direction. Radio developed in very different ways in different parts of the globe. Before the first radio broadcast in 1920’s the world of information and communication was confined to few literate urban, those who can purchase and read newspapers. The invention of radio virtually radicalized the process of social communication.
