Abstract / Description

Most of the news stories that are splashed about Pakistan in the Western and regional media are normally about the attacks by AI-Qaeda and Taliban in the border areas with Afghanistan, the assassination attempts on President Musharaf, the nuclear network of Dr. A. Qahdeer Khan, tensions with India and the earthquake of October 2005. The story of Pakistan's remarkable economic turnaround during the last six years is hardly known abroad with any sense of clarity or authenticity.
