  • B-1 APPENDIX B DESCRIPTION of SELECTED COMPETITORS This

  • Regional Telecoms
    Global Equity Research Sector Flash Fixed-line telecoms Russia 28 August 2008 Regional telecoms TPs cut 7%-37% on tighter margins ● The regional telecoms’ non-consolidated RAS EBITDA margins lost 1pp-4pp y-o-y in 1H08 due to outpacing cost growth. Operating expenses (less depreciation) rose 8%-15% y-o-y in rubles (compared to top-line growth of 4%-8%), mainly driven by higher staff costs, interconnect payments and SG&A. As a result, four of the seven incumbents saw EBITDA decline 2%-7% y-o-y in rubles. ● We expect the underlying salary and interconnect cost increases to be reflected in the incumbents’ 1H08 IFRS results (due in September) despite the accounting differences. We reduce our 2008F EBITDA estimates for all the regional telecoms except Dalsvyaz by 5%- 15%, and now expect EBITDA margins of 28%-35% vs. our previous estimate of 32%-36%. ● We raise our projections for capex on acquisitions this year to reflect the companies’ spending on minority stakes in Hybrid Print Systems. We increase our 2008F capex/sales ratio for Centertelecom from 19% to 29%, as the company raised its 2008F capex guidance. ● We cut our 12-month TPs by 7%-37% due to lower operational forecasts and higher capex projections. We downgrade Centertelecom from Buy to Hold, following a 37% decrease in its 12-month TP to $0.49. We upgrade Southern Telecom from Sell to Hold due to the stock’s recent weakness, and maintain our Buy ratings for North-West Telecom, VolgaTelecom, Uralsvyazinform, Sibirtelecom and Dalsvyaz. ● Our top picks are Dalsvyaz and VolgaTelecom, given their upsides of 116% and 83%, respectively, to our new target prices and the fact that their 2008F EV/EBITDA multiples are below 3X.

  • CADET COLLEGE PETARO – a COLLEGE with a DIFFERENCE Prof
    CADET COLLEGE PETARO – A COLLEGE WITH A DIFFERENCE Prof. Affan Maqsood, Ex-Professor & ex-Head of Dept. of English, CCP (1969-1996) (Currently Prof. Affan Maqsood is Head of Dept. of English at the Women’s Institute of Science and Humanities, Islamabad) The mere thought of Cadet College Petaro makes me nostalgic about the twenty seven years I spent at Petaro as a teacher of English. I joined as lecturer in English, and left as professor and Head of the Department of English, and Divisional Co- coordinator officer. Petaro is reminiscent of the golden period of my life. It was not merely a period of my teaching, but also a period of my grooming as a teacher of English. No doubt there are some other good cadet colleges in the country, Cadet College Hasan Abdal being perhaps the oldest with its own history and traditions. But of all the colleges, Cadet College Petaro stands at the climax. My opinion is neither based on my emotional attachment with this institution nor on prejudice against any other institution. Rather it is genuinely based on cogent reasons. I joined Cadet College Petaro on the 4th of September, 1969. If I am not mistaken, the same year or the next, Petaro won the President’s Sport Shield, by winning the Inter-Cadet College Sports Tournament for the fourth consecutive year. I do admit that Hasan Abdal has an excellent record in terms of extra-curricular activities, in general and academics in particular. The whole credit for this achievement does not go only to Hasan Abdal but also to the cadets, who are selected purely on merit.

Glasgow Theses Service http://theses.gla.ac.uk/ [email protected] Enforcement and Regulation in Relation to TV Broadcasting in Pakistan Muhammad Abrar Submitted for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy School of Law College of Social Sciences University of Glasgow November 2012 Abstract Abstract In 2002, private broadcasters started their own TV transmissions after the creation of the Pakistan Electronic Media Authority. This thesis seeks to identify the challenges to the Pakistan public and private electronic media sectors in terms of enforcement. Despite its importance and growth, there is a lack of research on the enforcement and regulatory supervision of the electronic media sector in Pakistan. This study examines the sector and identifies the action required to improve the current situation. To this end, it focuses on five aspects: (i) Institutional arrangements: institutions play a key role in regulating the system properly. (ii) Legislative and regulatory arrangements: legislation enables the electronic media system to run smoothly.
