Occupying land crisscrossed by ancient invasion paths, Pakistan was the home of the prehistoric Indus Valley civilization, which flourished until overrun by Aryans c. 1500 B.C. After being conquered by numerous rulers and powers, it passed to the British as part of India and became a separate Muslim state in 1947. The country originally included the Bengalese territory of East Pakistan, which achieved its separate independence in 1971 as Bangladesh. Pakistan became a republic in 1956.

For years, Catholic Relief Services has been aiding refugees living in Pakistan. Now, CRS is also collaborating with local and international partners to develop programs for distributing humanitarian aid such as food, blankets and health items to both refugees in Pakistan and vulnerable persons within Afghanistan. Over the last year, CRS' emergency program in Pakistan reached out to more than 600,000 Afghans and Pakistanis affected by drought and conflict. This assistance is in addition to the agency's ongoing development work in Pakistan of which more than 100,000 people benefited in 2001. Women are considered the most vulnerable group and form the majority of CRS' target beneficiaries, comprising 63 percent of all people served.

Introduction The story of air power in the sub-continent relates back to the Royal Air Force days. The modest start came in 1914 when a small flying group initially called the Royal Flying Corps (RFC) which was later named the RAF, was established at Sitapur in India. A Central Flying School thus started functioning with a fleet of BE 2 aircraft. After the partition of the sub-continent the Royal Pakistan Air Force (RPAF) came into existence at Peshawar on 15 August 1947. Air Vice Marshal A L A Perry Keene was appointed as its first Air Commander. At the time of its formation, RPAF comprised four stations; 16 fighters, 40 training / transport aircraft; two fighter squadrons; one maintenance depot and a meager ammunition depot. The manpower comprised 220 officers and 2112 airmen. The prefix 'Royal' was deleted from the RPAF's title on 23rd March 1956, the Pakistan Day. Organization Weapon Systems At the time of its independence, the RPAF inherited 16 Tempest fighters, two HP-57 Halifax bombers, 20

Français Contact Us Help Search ... Talk To Us The History and Nature of the India-Pakistan Rivalry cont'd India - Driving Factors Four factors govern India's perception of regional and global security issues: history, geopolitics, internal politics and regional conflict. From New Delhi's perspective, history is the largest single driving factor in India's quest for nuclear weapons. India's colonial legacy, coloured by three centuries of rather paternalistic imperial governance, may well be a major engine driving India's desire for recognition as a nascent global power. That legacy has, in a sense, been exacerbated by the manner in which Independence led to internecine conflict, Partition and strife rather than promised prosperity. Nuclear weapons are one more piece of a mosaic that includes the development of first- rate educational institutions, the drive for a naval power-projection capability, the quest for nation- wide industrialization and the development of an indigenous space programme. These are perceived to be the measures of First World or "Great Power" status, and New Delhi considers that these achievements merit recognition of India as a global player. In this context, India's nuclear capability is in part an attempt to redress perceived technological inferiority. It is in great measure for this reason that India's pursuit of a nuclear weapons capability has consistently received such a high level of public support.

updated 6-11-04 PAKISTAN I was very upset that this was happening and the black haired woman said, "We've known this was going to happen for a whole year already." I then saw a newspaper article in the newspaper. It was on page 2 near the center fold in a long narrow column. The headline said, "A FACT FINDING GROUP HEADING TO PAKISTAN." The article was about the group going to study the situation and try to prevent a war. I was so upset by this news I woke up with a horrible headache in the back of my head. Strange thing... it only lasted 10 minutes. The name Kenneth means "Royal Obligation" and the name Deborah means "bee". (Bees sting) (Thomas...who wasn't going along means 'twin'. (Recall "doubting Thomas" from the Bible".) DREAM - 8-18-2001 - I was sitting in a small office, observing a man in his 30's teach a young 10 year old boy how to do simple bookkeeping. Everything that was purchased had a receipt and the amount was written in a ledger book. Then the boss would come over and initial both the receipt and the line in the book to show that he had seen both of them. A reference was made as to how old 58 years old seems to an 18 year old girl and how long it takes to get to that age. Then when the 58 years old person looks back at when they were 18, it seems like only yesterday.

TRANSCRIPT Afghanistan: Promise and Fulfillment Regional Stakeholders Carnegie Endowment for International Peace Washington, DC May 25, 2004 MODERATOR: The Honorable Peter Tomsen , former US Special Envoy and ambassador to Afghanistan His Excellecy Baktybek Abdrissaev , Ambassador of Kyrgyzstan. Ambassador Husain Haqqani , Senior Associate at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace and former Pakistani ambassador. Dr. Hadi Semati , Visiting Scholar at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace Introduction David Chambers: Our second panel on "Regional Stakeholders" is being moderated by the Honorable Peter Tomsen, former US Special Envoy and ambassador to Afghanistan. Peter Tomsen: Welcome to the "Regional Stakeholders" panel. The Afghans themselves, of course, the inner circle, the domestic circle in Afghanistan, will be the major determinant of what happens in Afghanistan in the coming weeks, months and years. Some Afghans will disagree with that. They'll say, "Oh, foreign interference is the root of all of our problems." Tom Green has heard that; others in this room have heard it; but it's not true. But it is true that Afghans themselves, what they do to each other, how they cooperate with each other, will be deciding what happens in Afghanistan - the main determinant.

History Probably the first seeds for formally establishing a Botanical Society were sown in the picturesque setting at Bara Gali in 1965 where the participants of the Summer Seminar in Botany resolved to establish a national platform for all those interested in Plant Sciences. Among others who participated in these discussions were Prof. Sher Ahmed Lodhi, Prof. Majid Ahmed, Dr. Khwaja Muhammad Salim, Dr. Shah Rukh Chughtai, Dr. Mustafa Shameel and Mrs. Rukayya Khan. The idea was welcomed by other Plant Scientists actively engaged in research in different organizations in the country. In 1968, the Pakistan Botanical Society came into existence with Prof. Sher Ahmed Lodhi, Professor of Botany, University of The Punjab as the founder President. Dr. Majid Ahmed and Dr. S. I. Ali, shared the responsibilities as Vice Presidents, whereas Dr. Shaukat Ali Chowdhry was elected Secretary / Treasurer for the year 1968-69. Prof. A. S. Islam of the University of Sindh was appointed Editor-in-Chief of Pakistan Journal of Botany (PJB) in 1968-69. The first issue of the journal appeared in 1969. In 1971 Professor Islam shifted to Dacca and Dr. Abdul Ghaffar took over as Chief Editor of PJB. Since then he has been editing PJB most ably in spite of financial difficulties.

Most profound are the changes that are taking place in Asia. In the next 25 years, Asia will have two largest economies of the world, with China becoming the first and India third economic power. Seen in the South Asian context, the region as a whole could become the hub of the world's second-largest economy, leaving the United States behind. And with China bordering four states of the Subcontinent, China and South Asia together can become the largest economic regional grouping, with no comparable rival. The centre of economic gravity, if China also joined the grouping at some stage, will for the first time tilt in favour of South Asia. Consequently, the dynamic of current globalisation that favours more developed countries of the West will turn in the service of Asia. In this 21st century, which belongs to Asia, and in the next two decades, South Asia and China can together reshape history with half the world's population living here. But are we preparing for the role the 21st century will assign us? Sceptics living in the past may drag their feet, but the historic opportunity is there to grasp by those who see history moving to their side. The time has for the first time come to support formerly colonised people. Given our common history of national resistance to colonialism, history will, however, not repeat itself in colonialism-by-reverse.

The 57-year-old dispute over who owns divided Kashmir still dominates relations between India and Pakistan, with the nuclear-armed rivals draping themselves in the flag whenever it is mentioned. So it comes as little surprise that schools in the two countries find it difficult to offer an objective view on the subject.

Pugwash Workshop The Emerging Regional Situation and the Global Context 7 September 2004, Islamabad Papers Participants Program Global and Regional Security By Lt. Gen. (R) Talat Masood World Order The end of the Cold War and the collapse of the Soviet Union gave the United States a pre-eminence that historians have described being unrivalled in the annals of history. It also brought out a transformation of the international power equation. In practically every important facet of national power the U.S. is far ahead of other major powers whether it is military, economy, soft culture or scientific and technological progress. For this over arching dominance of one single power the world is characterized as unipolar with U.S. having the responsibility of being the leading nation and the " lone super-power". It is in this context that we have to examine the question of unilateralism versus mutilateralism. The U.S. has all along but since 9/11 increasingly embraced a world-view that has driven it toward unilateralism and even "exceptionalism". U.S. has been following unilateralist policies in its dealings with the U.N, on matters related to global warming, as was reflected in its rejection of the Kyoto protocol, and on refusing to accept the jurisdiction of the International Court of Justice. And similarly the current U.S. policies clearly indicate that it has become very selective in its approach towards non-proliferation. It has also failed to ratify the CTBT, unilaterally withdrawn from ABM treaty and rejected the monitoring capabilities of the Biological Weapons Convention.

But one can make reasoned guesses for Pakistan's possible trajectories over the next decade and, in the process, focus attention upon the forces that seek to drive it in different directions. Independent of which government comes to power in Pakistan, there are likely to be certain fixed features of the country's future nuclear development: The production of fissile materials and bombs, as well as intermediate-range ballistic missiles, will continue at the maximum possible rate permitted by technological and resource limitations. Missiles will steadily replace aircraft as delivery vehicles for nuclear weapons. Missile flight tests and command post exercises will continue to be periodically conducted.
