Le Pakistan est devenu partie à la Convention internationale sur l'élimination de toutes les formes de discrimination raciale (ci-après «la Convention») le 21 septembre 1966. Depuis lors, le Gouvernement tient le Comité pour l’élimination de la discrimination raciale (ci-après «le Comité») informé des mesures prises par l’État partie pour donner effet à ses obligations. En mars 2009, le Gouvernement s’est présenté devant le Comité pour échanger avec lui et lui soumettre ses quinzième à vingtième rapports périodiques, soumis en un seul document. Le Comité a ensuite délivré ses observations finales et ses recommandations. 2. Le Gouvernement pakistanais a maintenant le plaisir de soumettre ses vingt et unième à vingt-troisième rapports périodiques, soumis en un seul document, établis conformément à l’article 9 de la Convention, et répondant aux observations finales et aux recommandations du Comité. 3. Lors de l’élaboration du présent rapport, le Gouvernement a eu soin de suivre les directives générales adoptées par le Comité à sa soixante et onzième session (CERD/C/2007/1). Parallèlement, la procédure suivante a été adoptée établir le présent rapport: a) Deux matrices d’action ont été élaborées à partir du texte de la Convention et des recommandations générales du Comité, puis adaptées à chaque ministère fédéral et département provincial concernés. On y trouve une liste des obligations découlant des articles de la Convention et des renseignements détaillés sur chacune de ces obligations. Un ensemble coordonné de questions a également été élaboré et diffusé auprès des organes chargés de fournir des informations à jour; b) Les documents susmentionnés ont été diffusés auprès des principaux ministères fédéraux, départements provinciaux et autres parties prenantes, en leur demandant de fournir des informations et des données concernant les observations finales; c) Il a été demandé aux entités gouvernementales responsables de fournir des renseignements à jour sur les initiatives prises pour éliminer la discrimination raciale dans le pays. Dans le courrier en question, il leur a été demandé de donner des renseignements sur les mesures institutionnelles, juridiques et administratives prises par le Gouvernement pakistanais pendant la période à l’examen; d) Une série de réunions de concertation a ensuite été organisée aux niveaux fédéral et provincial avec les ministères, les départements et les organisations de la société civile concernés en vue de sensibiliser davantage à la Convention et de solliciter les informations destinées aux vingt et unième à vingt-troisième rapports. La réunion consultative nationale était présidée par le Secrétaire du Ministère du droit, de la justice et des droits de l’homme, qui a personnellement présenté le mécanisme de suivi de la Convention et procédé à des échanges de vues à ce sujet; e) Une réunion interministérielle a également été organisée pour réviser l’avant- projet des vingt et unième à vingt-troisième rapports périodiques, présentés en un seul document, le valider et recueillir les dernières observations; f) Environ 25 associations de la société civile et organisations non gouvernementales (ONG) ont pris part aux réunions de consultation organisées aux niveaux fédéral et provincial. Une opinion partagée s’est dégagée de ces consultations: des règles constitutionnelles et des dispositions pénales claires interdisent strictement la discrimination raciale et sa propagande et répriment ce type d’infractions. Le racisme est un 4 GE.15-20882 (EXT) CERD/C/PAK/21-23 phénomène rare au Pakistan et il n’exerce aucune, ou pratiquement aucune influence sur la vie des gens au Pakistan. Recommandation formulée au paragraphe 8 4. Au Pakistan, les groupes ethniques sont essentiellement identifiés par leur langue. Ainsi, le pays possède une population ethnolinguistique subdivisée en de nombreuses tribus. Les différentes langues et les spécificités socioculturelles établies lient ces groupes et fondent leur coexistence. Par exemple, les Pachtounes parlent le pachto et parmi eux se trouvent les Afridi, les Yusufzai, les Orakzai, les Kakakhels, etc. De même, parmi les Pendjabi, il y a les Rajputs, les Moghals, les Janjuas, les Jats, les Arains, qui parlent le pendjabi et différents dialectes. 5. Le Pakistan compte 189 298 922 habitants (selon les estimations). D’après les données issues du dernier recensement démographique, réalisé en 1998, la composition ethnique de la population, déterminée en fonction des principaux groupes linguistiques, se présentait comme suit: Langues Nombre de locuteurs Pourcentage Pourcentage validé Pourcentage cumulé Ourdou 1 2869,5 9,5 9,5 Pendjabi 3 06222,6 22,6 32,1 Sindhi 1 2799,4 9,4 41,5 Pachto 2 94621,7 21,7 63,3 Baloutchi 597 4,4 4,4 67,7 Anglais 3 0 0 67,7 Brahoui 569 4,2 4,2 71,9 Siraiki 1 3409,9 9,9 81,8 Hindko 550 4,1 4,1 85,8 Kashmiri 32 0,2 0,2 86,1 Shina 650 4,8 4,8 90,9 Bouroushaski 116 0,9 0,9 91,7 Wakhi 2 0 0 91,7 Chitrali/Khowar 116 0,9 0,9 62,6 Balti 385 2,8 2,8

  • 47 Post Conflict Stability Operations in Fata
    47 POST CONFLICT STABILITY OPERATIONS IN FATA (COMPREHENSIVE DEVELOPMENTAL STRATEGY) Waseem Ishaque PhD Scholar, International Relations, Shah Abdul Latif University, Khairpur ABSTRACT This paper explains the need of integrating FATA (Federally Administered Tribal Area) into national mainstream and options available for its economic development and social uplifting. It also highlights the significance of a comprehensive methodology for sustainable development of FATA. Few questions have also been put across for profound analysis of the envisaged end state of stability operations. It also encompasses the strategy for engagement of youth of FATA with the view to recommending specific options for their integration. Keywords: FATA Mainstreaming, Development, Employment INTRODUCTION The stability operations encompass military tasks and activities conducted in the conflict affected areas in synchronization with other elements of national power (EoNP) to reestablish and preserve the safe environment, provide the required government services and humanitarian assistance. The scope of the terms also includes the rehabilitation of Displaced People (DP) with assured living and earnings for interim period till alternate employment opportunities are generated. This also warrants a well deliberated inter agency coordination with national and International Non-Governmental Organizations (INGOs) in rehabilitation efforts. The FATA is the situated in the most remote and relatively inaccessible parts of the country, therefore, the overall socio-economic conditions of inhabitants have remained quite stumpy due to negative impact of ongoing security operations as well as lack of government‟s will in its mainstreaming. The Federally Administered Tribal Areas (FATA), comprise seven „political agencies‟ and six „Frontier Regions‟. FATA has border with Afghanistan on one side, while remaining three sides has the settled areas of Khyber Pakhtun Khuwa (KPK) Province.
