  • Corporate Sustainability Reporting by Pharmaceutical Companies: Is It What It Seems to Be?
    Corporate Ownership & Control / Volume 11, Issue 1, 2013, Continued - 8 CORPORATE SUSTAINABILITY REPORTING BY PHARMACEUTICAL COMPANIES: IS IT WHAT IT SEEMS TO BE? Mohammad Istiaq Azim*, Saiful Azam** Abstract A well-functioning pharmaceutical industry can contribute directly to social wellbeing. Corporate sustainability is an important precondition for the further development and growth of the industry. In this research multi methods are used to provide a complete, holistic and contextual portrait of the level of CSR by pharmaceutical companies in a developing country - Bangladesh. Firstly, we used content analysis to investigate corporate social reporting by listed pharmaceutical companies. Secondly, we conducted surveys to document management responses. Thirdly, we sought stakeholders' views on the extent to which they believe CSR is being implemented in the industry. Analysis of annual reports published in 2009- 2010 shows that only 26.67% of listed pharmaceutical companies made some CSR disclosure. However, more than seventy-five per cent of these disclosures are sweeping qualitative statements without any attempt at quantification. Most managers believe social reporting should strike a balance between meeting stakeholders' reasonable expectations and running a successful business. The majority of stakeholders appear to favour mandatory requirements for CSR disclosure.

  • (Retrd.) Saiful Azam, the Defender of Jerusalem, Clearly Reflects
    Media Office of Hizb ut Tahrir Wilayah Bangladesh th Ref: 1441 / 18 Thursday, 27 Shawwal 1441 AH 18/06/2020 CE Press Release Hasina Government’s Silence over the Demise of Group Captain (retd.) Saiful Azam, the Defender of Jerusalem, clearly reflects its Allegiance towards the Enemies of Islam Only under the Shade of the Khilafah (Caliphate) Lies the Dignity and Honor of the True Heroes The news of the death of the legendary fighter pilot of Bangladesh, Group Captain (retd.) Saiful Azam, who passed away in silence at Dhaka on Sunday afternoon, has stirred the deepest emotions of the Ummah in Bangladesh and across the Muslim world. And the emotional toll on people for this loss was in fact very high when they came to know the bravery and unmatchable achievement of this ‘unsung hero’ against the enemies of Islam - the illegitimate Jewish entity and Indian Mushrik State. Apart from his being the only fighter pilot who fought for four countries (Jordan, Iraq Pakistan, and Bangladesh) at war, this war hero captured Muslims’ hearts for his courageous role in attacking air force bases and destroying superior fighter planes of the enemies - India and the Jewish entity 'Israel'. To date, he remains the one to have downed the highest number of enemy fighters, the only one to have downed four enemy aircrafts during the 1967 Six-Day War against the illegitimate Jewish entity. Also, he shot down an Indian Air Force Gnat interceptor during the 1965 war with India after returning from a successful ground attack on an Indian airbase.

  • Pakistan-Israel Relations After the Arab World's
    Araştırma Makalesi (Research Article) PAKISTAN-ISRAEL RELATIONS AFTER THE ARAB WORLD’S GEOPOLITICAL GRAVITATION TOWARDS ISRAEL Muhammad FAHİM Riphah International University, Pakistan [email protected] https://orcid.org/0000-0002-4342-3068 Fahim, M. (2021). PAKISTAN-ISRAEL RELATIONS AFTER THE ARAB Atıf WORLD’S GEOPOLITICAL GRAVITATION TOWARDS ISRAEL. İstanbul Aydın Üniversitesi Sosyal Bilimler Dergisi, 13(3), 723 - 736. ABSTRACT Security and financial diversification are the major, but not the only, reasons behind the recent Arab world’s geopolitical gravitation towards Israel. It was vehemently believed that a formal move of the Arab world towards normalizations of relations with Israel will compel Pakistan to revisit her Israel policy and will eventually lead to normalization of relations with Israel. But the recent wave of normalizing of relations between Arab states and Israel proved this theory flawed. Now, the decades-old overt and covert contacts and visits between the Arabs and Israelis resulted in the formal announcements of normalization of relations between four major Arab countries and Israel. However, Pakistan has denied any change in her long-standing Israel policy even after the extreme pressure from some Arab countries and the Trump Administration. This article will analyze Pakistan’s stance after the Arab world’s geopolitical gravitation towards Israel and the believed pressure from some Arab countries and the Trump Administration on Pakistan with regards to the normalization of relations with Israel. This article will also discuss the historical background of Pakistan-Israel relations, contacts between the two ideological states, various tensions between the two, and believed constraints, such as the Iranian factor, the Kashmir Issue, the fear of the Islamist revolt, and so on.

  • Saiful Azam (Translated) on Sunday, 14/06/2020, the Heroic Fighter and the Bearer of the Two Honors, Saiful Azam, Passed Away in Dhaka, Bangladesh
    Central Media Office Issue No: 1441 AH / 026 Tuesday, 25th Shawwal 1441 AH 16/06/2020 CE Press Release Condolences for the Passing of the Mujahid Pilot & “The Bearer of Two Honors” Saiful Azam (Translated) On Sunday, 14/06/2020, the heroic fighter and the bearer of the two honors, Saiful Azam, passed away in Dhaka, Bangladesh. May Allah have mercy on him, and unite him with his brothers who preceded him in fighting for Allah’s sake, such as Khalid Bin al-Waleed, Salahuddin al-Ayoubi, Muhammad Bin al-Qasim, and all the Muslim fighters who were truthful with their weapons to Allah (swt) in their pledged to Him (swt). Saiful, may Allah grant him forgiveness, had gained the two great honors; fighting the Jews and fighting the Hindus. Saiful Azam was a knight of the knights who fought the Hindu state in 1965, he did it marvelously. It severely damaged the Indian forces on 12 offensive missions. Azam also shot down an Indian Air Force plane and received a military honor medal for it. In 1967, Azam fought the Jewish entity alongside his brothers who had fought the Jews, and he was known as the only pilot who fought the Jews in three Air Forces; Jordan, Iraq and Pakistan. He held the record for downing aircrafts belonging to the Jewish entity, more than any other Mujahid, may Allah have mercy on him and may Allah reward him abundantly on behalf of the Islamic Ummah. On this occasion, we would like to remind you, the great peers of Saiful in the Jordanian, Bangladeshi and Pakistani army that Palestine, which he fought for its liberation, is still under the spiteful occupation, and is still waiting for you to liberate it.

  • Mitigating the Consequences of Violent Conflict: What Works and What Does Not?
    Mitigating the Consequences of Violent Conflict: What Works and What Does Not? OCTOBER 2012 The purpose of the second International Expert Forum, “Mitigating the Consequences of Violent Conflict: What Works and What Does Not?,” which was held at IPI on June 6, 2012, was to take stock of the consequences of ongoing violent conflict and means to prevent and reduce them, including peacekeeping operations and special envoys. The ambition was to identify patterns and formulate lessons learned and policy implications in the short, medium, and long term. The forum was divided into three sessions: mapping the trends and causes of violence against civilians; mapping the challenges and impact of peacekeeping This meeting note was drafted by operations; and mapping the challenges and impact of special envoys.

  • It Is the Caliphate Which Will Unify the Ummah's Armed Forces To
    F It is the Caliphate which will Unify the Ummah's Armed Forces to Eradicate the Jewish Occupation News: Al-Jazeera reported on 6 July 2020 that the Jewish occupation has said it carried out fresh air raids on the Gaza Strip in response to three alleged rockets fired from the besieged Palestinian enclave. No casualties were reported in the attacks that took place amid heightened tensions over the Jewish entity’s widely criticised plan to illegally annex parts of the occupied West Bank. In the long days since the attacks, there has not been any response from the rulers of Muslims, including those of Pakistan, whose army is the sixth largest in the world. Comment: Our hearts bleed for our brothers and sisters in Gaza. Surrounded by many Arab states, Palestine is abandoned because the rulers of the Muslim world today are busy making this Dunya a heaven for themselves. Under the noses of the rulers, the Jewish occupation undertakes operations to strengthen its hold of Palestine. Under the noses of the rulers, the non-Muslims today in different parts of the world are oppressing our Muslim brothers and sisters, be it the Hindus in Kashmir, the Russians in Syria or the Jews in Palestine. As elsewhere, the Muslims of Palestine are waiting for a Muslim armed force to liberate them. They're waiting for their Muslim brothers fight the ruthless Jewish forces. However, we are mistaken if we think that the current rulers of the kufr systems will ever mobilize our armed forces. Rather than gathering the millions of troops that the Ummah has now for the liberation of Masjid Al-Aqsa, they keep them divided into over fifty states.

Lynn Pascoe, Under-Secretary-General for Political Affairs, ahead of a day-long open debate. Both parties should be concerned that the political track was falling behind the significant progress made by the Palestinian Authority in its state-building agenda, he said. In the six areas where the international community was most engaged with the Palestinian Authority, governmental functions were now sufficient for a viable State, according to a recent United Nations report. In parallel, Israeli measures to facilitate movement had also supported economic activity and access to basic services. However, he said, “far-reaching rather than incremental steps” were needed from Israel to lead to progress on the ground, by rolling back restrictions to match the Palestinian Authority’s achievements.
