  • Personality Profile Asim Saleem Bajwa - Chairman CPEC Asim Saleem Bajwa Is a Retired Lieutenant General Who Served from 1984-2019
    Personality Profile Asim Saleem Bajwa - Chairman CPEC Asim Saleem Bajwa is a retired Lieutenant General who served from 1984-2019. He is now the Chairman of China Pakistan Economic Corridor and had the prestigious role of Special Assistant to the Prime Minister from 2019-2020. In his military career, Bajwa also held the position of DG ISPR from 2016-2017, and in light of his military achievements he is the esteemed holder of Tambgha-e-Basalat and Hilal- i-Imtiaz. The retired general leads CPEC from the forefront and recently added that 1100 jobs have been created by the project. In the NCOC, he can be expected to carry the same populist rhetoric, and even protect the army’s interests as well as his own. Being the SAPM, it will be no surprise for him to communicate the PM’s wishes to the cabinet. Dr. Arif Alvi - President of Pakistan Born in 1949; Dr. Arif Alvi is the 13th President of Pakistan. Alvi has vast experience in dentistry and was once the Councillor of the World dental federation. But most importantly, he is one of the founding members of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf and remained a member of the PTI's Central Executive Committee since its inception. He has also held the offices of PTI President of Sindh (1997-2001), Central Vice President (2001-2006) and Secretary General (2006-2013). Pakistan’s current president eventually gave up all of these roles once he assumed the office of the President. Dr. Arif Alvi has also fought for pro- democratic values since General Ayub Khan’s military dictatorship.

  • JCC: India-Pakistan Conflict, ​Pakistan​- Background Guide
    JCC: India-Pakistan Conflict, Pakistan- Background Guide ​ ​ Letter from the Chair Namaste, I’m Emily, and I’m really excited to be serving as your chair for this year’s SMUNC! In normal life, I am a senior studying International Relations here at Stanford. Since it is my senior year, this is my last SMUNC and likely one of my last MUN conferences ever. I am looking forward to making a memorable weekend, filled with rich debate, strategic thinking, and (hopefully) our decisive victory over India. The conflict between India and Pakistan has been long and bloody – and the danger of its further escalation is all too eminent. Despite various peace processes and armed clashes, the uneasy relationship between these two countries continues to quiver. The potential for war endangers not only the countries’ massive populations (Pakistan has 212 million citizens; India has 1.4 billion (“Pakistan”)) but also the entire South Asian subcontinent and, quite possibly, the world at large, due to the nations’ nuclear arsenals and intricate webs of alliances. Both diplomatic and military solutions have eluded the globe’s foremost thinkers; this weekend, the weight of solving the issue falls on you. By nature, SMUNC reduces this behemoth topic into a weekend exercise, which I hope will be filled with intra-committee jokes, creative war plans, and good-natured rivalry – all good joint-crisis committees are. However, we must take care in our fun to remember and respect the th real lives impacted by this conflict. 2017 marked the 70 year​ of this conflict, and these 70 years ​ have already seen the death of more than 47,000 people (“Kashmir Fast Facts”).
