    South Asian Studies A Research Journal of South Asian Studies Vol. 32, No. 1, January – June 2017, pp.67 – 80 Cultural Scenario of Pakistan in Democratic and Military Eras (1947-2013) Saira Siddiqui Government College University, Faisalabad, Pakistan. Syeda Khizra Aslam Government College University, Faisalabad, Pakistan. Muhammad Rashid Khan University of the Punjab, Lahore, Pakistan. ABSTRACT This study investigates a politico-cultural mapping of leisure and life in Pakistan, a country in South Asia, with a political developmental period in historical perspective from its independence in 1947. A classification of ruling eras is done, and accordingly the paper carries its discussion. A few tables are presented to give the percentage of leisure-time spent, and leisure-activities pursued by Pakistani men and women. The data is from nationally represented samples of 2690 respondents in 2009, and 1294 respondents interviewed in 2012 by Gilani Research Foundation, Pakistan. The findings also include statistics from a research by the authors own empirical study of 2013, from a sample of 222 women respondents in Faisalabad City, Punjab, Pakistan. Key Words: Democratic and military eras, Pakistan, leisure and life, recreational facilities Introduction South Asia is one of the most heavily populated places in the world. The countries within its area are Bangladesh, Bhutan, India, Maldives, Nepal, Pakistan, and Sri Lanka (Cultural Geography of South Asia, 2002).

  • The Role of Media in Pakistan Dr
    Journal of South Asian and Middle Eastern Studies, 35 :4, Summer 2012. The Role of Media in Pakistan Dr. Nazir Hussain The explosion of information revolution and the proliferation of electronic media have virtually converted the world into a globalized village. Now, information, news and events have no barriers and control to reach anywhere around the world. These happenings reach to every living room instantaneously even before the governments can react and control it. The enhanced role of media has impacted the social, economic and political life. What one thinks, believes and perceives are based on the images shown on the media. It has penetrated the routine life of all individuals; commoners, elites, decision-makers and statesmen. States have often been inclined to use the media as a propaganda tool for political and military purposes. The decades of 1980s and 1990s have for instance witnessed the use of US media for politico-military ends. The projection of Soviet Union as an ‘Evil Empire’, the Saddam saga and the ‘Weapons of Mass Destruction’ and the Osama Bin Laden from ‘Freedom Fighter to a Terrorist’ are some of the examples. However, now the media has come out of the domain of the state controls, it is the financiers, the media houses and the media anchors that make heroes and villains, leaders and terrorists. Therefore, the role of media is growing from an observer to an active player in political decision making. The political leaders and government officials have become dependent to convey and defend their policies through the use of media. The media where ‘more anti-government will earn more business’ is considered a basic key to success.

  • Following Clarification/Rebuttal Was Issued to Business Recorder in Response to an Editorial Published on February 6, 2020 Entitled: ‘IMF Programme Needs Tweaking’
    Following Clarification/Rebuttal was issued to Business Recorder in response to an Editorial published on February 6, 2020 entitled: ‘IMF programme needs tweaking’ This is with reference to your editorial titled ‘IMF programme needs tweaking’ published on 6th February, 2020. We would like to draw your attention to the three points raised in your editorial that are either factually or conceptually incorrect. These points are: 1. “…however, what was ignored at the time and continues to be ignored to this day is data uploaded on State Bank of Pakistan's (SBP's) website which notes that the rupee had been undervalued since December 2018 and that in March 2019 it was undervalued to the tune of just under 3 percent.” 2. “…a decision that would reduce SBP profits thereby putting pressure on the fiscal deficit given that during the first quarter, an unprecedented rise in SBP profits went half way in lowering the budget deficit.” 3. Additionally, the high discount rate has attracted foreign portfolio investment in government securities which are even worse than the then finance minister Ishaq Dar's policy to incur debt equity (sukuk/eurobonds) as the return is more than 6 percent higher while the amortization period is a lot less than the five- and 10-year maturity set by Dar.” SBPs views on these points are as follows 1. The first statement appears to be referring to data on the nominal / real effective exchange rate (NEER/REER) indices of the Pakistani Rupee available on SBP’s website. However, it is factually incorrect and an inaccurate reading of what the data represent.
