PAKISTAN Haveli, the Defining Symbol of Rohtas Fort
Restoring Man Singh PAKISTAN Haveli, the defining symbol of Rohtas Fort ohtas Fort has towered majestically on its height above the ancient "royal road" since it was con- Rstructed in 1541 by Emperor Sher Shah Suri after his defeat of Mogul Emperor Humayun. It is one of the most important historical medieval forts still in existence in Pakistan. Within the four-kilometer cir- cumference of this World Heritage Site is the Man Singh Haveli, a Rajput palace. Funded by the U.S. Ambassador's Fund for Cultural Preservation, the Himalayan Wildlife Foundation was able, starting in 2004, to take the first important steps of documenting the structure and layout of the palace, while carrying out a topographic survey of the area. After constructing scaffolding and walkways to allow safe access to the site, emergency consolidation of decaying parts of the ground floor of the haveli were com- pleted. Damaged floors, walls and shades on the upper floors were repaired with lime plaster. Soil erosion in the courtyard allowed rainwater to seep into the ground floor; that problem was resolved so that water does not accu- mulate. The restorers also had to contend with tufts of grass and even a tree penetrating the walls. The expand- ing tree trunk caused part of the base of the cupola's drum to separate from the structure. Two original motifs encircling the cupola were dis- covered as workers stripped away damaged and decayed mortar; they have been restored, as well as the brick design on part of the rim. This allows viewers to get an idea of what the original design looked like. -

The Ministry of Information and Broadcasting, Government of Pakistan, under its former minister Mr Fawad Chaudhry was very supportive of granting approval for the idea of this undertaking. The Pavilion of Pakistan thus garnered a great deal of attention and support from the art community as well as the entire country. Pakistan’s participation in this prestigious international art event has provided a global audience with an unforgettable introduction to Pakistani art. I congratulate Zahra Khan, for her commitment and hard work, and Naiza Khan, for being the first significant Pakistani artist to represent the country, along with everyone who played a part in this initiative’s success. I particularly thank Asma Rashid Khan, Director of Foundation Art Divvy, for partnering with the project, in addition to all our generous sponsors for their valuable support in the execution of our first-ever national pavilion. -

Diversity and Abundance of Medicinal Plants Among Different Forest-Use Types of the Pakistani Himalaya
DIVERSITY AND ABUNDANCE OF MEDICINAL PLANTS AMONG DIFFERENT FOREST-USE TYPES OF THE PAKISTANI HIMALAYA Muhammad Adnan (Born in Charsadda, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan) A Dissertation Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Academic Degree of Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) of the Faculty of Forest Sciences and Forest Ecology of the Georg-August-University of Göttingen Supervisor Prof. Dr. Dirk Hölscher Göttingen, November 2011 Reviewers Prof. Dr. Dirk Hölscher Prof. Dr. Christian Ammer Examiners Prof. Dr. Dirk Hölscher Prof. Dr. Christian Ammer Prof. Dr. Erwin Bergmeier ii SUMMARY Medicinal plants collected in the Himalayan forests are receiving increasing attention at the international level for a number of reasons and they play an important role in securing rural livelihoods. However, these forests have been heavily transformed over the years by logging, grazing and agriculture. This thesis examines the extent to which the diversity and abundance of medicinal plants are affected between forest-use types as a result of such transformations. In northwestern Pakistan we studied old-growth forest, degraded forests (forests degraded by logging, derived woodland, agroforest and degraded sites) and restored forests (re-growth forests and reforestation sites). An approximate map was initially established covering an area of 90 km2 of the studied forest-use types and fifteen and five plots were allocated to five and two forest-use types respectively at altitudes ranging from 2,200 m to 2,400 m asl. The abundance and diversity of medicinal plants were then assessed therein. Of the fifty-nine medicinal plant species (herbs and ferns) studied, old-growth forest contained the highest number thereof with fifty-five species, followed by re-growth forest with forty-nine species and finally, forest degraded by logging with only forty species. -
Willingness to Pay for Margalla Hills National Park: Evidence from the Travel Cost Method
The Lahore Journal of Economics 11 : 2 (Winter 2006) pp. 43-70 Willingness to Pay for Margalla Hills National Park: Evidence from the Travel Cost Method Himayatullah Khan* Abstract This study, which is among the first in Pakistan to value recreational benefits, estimates the benefits of the Margalla Hills National Park near Islamabad. The study examines how much park visitors are willing to pay to visit the park. Annual benefits from the park are considerable—the total annual consumer surplus or economic benefit obtained from recreation in the park is approximately Rs. 23 million (US $ 0.4 million). Various factors influence the value visitors obtain from the park — these include travel cost, household income, and the quality of the park. Improvements in the quality of the park are estimated to increase recreational benefits by 39%. The study recommends that a park entrance fee of Rs. 20 per person be introduced, which could be utilized for park management. This would generate nearly Rs. 11 million in revenues annually, a sizable amount of money that represents about 4% of the annual budget allocated to the environment sector in Pakistan. JEL Classification: Keywords: Environmental valuation, willingness to pay, total recreational value, consumer surplus, environmental resources, national parks, Pakistan. * The author is Professor at the Institute of Development Studies, NWFP Agricultural University, Peshawar and currently on deputation to Department of Development Studies, COMSATS Institute of Information Technology, Abbottabad. This paper is based on Himayatullah (2003). The author gratefully acknowledges the financial support provided by the South Asian Network for Development and Environmental Economics (SANDEE). -
