[Pak-Media] Disastrous impact Musharraf made on Pakistan

0
 

I think many have failed to see the disastrous impact Musharraf has made on
Pakistan & Pakistani's & Muslim's in Particular.
I repeat what i had written earlier which you seem not to have read.

Mr. Musharraf has been responsible for the Following :-
1. Making Pakistan, Pakistani's & Muslim's be known as Terrorists.
2 Dr. Aafia Siddiqui was "SOLD" to USA.
3 Over 5,000 "Missing Persons".
4 Bombing/killing Of over 100 Children studying in a Madrassah in NWFP.
5. "LAL MASJID" horrifying "MURDER" or girls and boys.
6. Letting People Fill their Pockets and allowing them.
7.NRO - it was not his money to pardon.
8. When he was a "Dictator" why didn't he develop Pakistan glaring example
"Kalabagh Dam & Other Dams".
Whatever his good points.
Are clearly showing that he was a Cruel Blooded Murderer and Hated Pakistan and
Pakistani's.

[Pak-Media] Rothschild & Sons Bankers Looting Nations Through World Bank/IMF

0
 

The World Bank/IMF is owned and controlled by NM Rothschild & Sons plus 30 to 40
of the wealthiest people in the world. For over 150 years they have planned to
take over the planet through money. The former chief economist of the World
Bank, Joe Stiglitz, was fired in 2000. He pointed out to top executives that
every country the IMF/World Bank forced their way into ended up with a crashed
economy, a destroyed government, and some even broke out in riots. Former
President of the World Bank/IMF Sir James Wolfensohn, would not comment on his
dismissal.

Before Joe Stiglitz was fired he took a large stack of secret documents out of
the World Bank.

These secret documents from the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund
reveal that the IMF required nations:

1. To sign secret agreements containing 111 destructive items. (I'd love to get
a hold of that list)

2. To agree to sell off their key assets - water, electric, gas, etc.

3. To agree to take economic steps which are devastating to the nations
involved.

If they do not agree to these steps they are cut-off from all international
Import/Export. If you can't borrow money in the international marketplace, no
one can survive, whether you are people, corporations or countries. If that
doesn't work they overthrow the government and rewrite history.

The Argentina Plan
Inside documents from Argentina show the top-secret Argentine plan. This was
signed by Sir James Wolfensohn, the former president of the World Bank.
Argentina has had six presidents in five weeks because their economy is
completely destroyed. This happened because they started out in the end of the
1980s with orders from the IMF and World Bank to sell-off all their assets,
public assets, like their water system. Then they taxed the people. They created
big government and big government handed it off to the private IMF/World Bank.
They pay off the politicians billions in Swiss bank accounts.

[Pak-Media] Plagiarism by the VC of University of Peshawar

0
 

S. Mahmood Raza, Ph.D.

Adviser (Quality Assurance & Learning Innovation)

Higher Education Commission, Islamabad.

 

Subject:           Plagiarism by the Vice Chancellor, University of Peshawar.

 

Dear Sir,

                        Pease refer to my complaint on the subject to the Chairman and Executive Director, Higher Education Commission dated March 10, 2011, which was forwarded to your office with intimation to the undersigned. On March 14, 2011 your office informed me via email that the HEC will process the case as per Plagiarism Policy.

 

                        In the meanwhile, I have also come to know about your request to the Registrar, University of Peshawar (vide letter No.94-P/QA/HEC/UoP/2011, dated 24.03.2011) for proceeding with the subject case through the Plagiarism Standing Committee of the University as per HEC Plagiarism Policy and that the decision / progress may be communicated to HEC within stipulated timeline.

 

                        Let me first inform you that no action whatsoever has been taken by the University of Peshawar in pursuance of your letter. I met the Director Quality Enhancement Cell (QEC) of the university and enquired about the progress on the case. He informed me that the QEC has not received any instructions from any quarter for initiating process on constitution of the Plagiarism Standing Committee till date.

 

                        Secondly, I also went through policy documents of HEC on plagiarism, including The Little Book of Plagiarism, HEC Plagiarism Policy, Standard Operating Procedures for Plagiarism Cases and Policy Decision Regarding Plagiarism Cases vide No.1-P/AD-QA/HEC/Gen/2009/1453, dated May 26, 2009 (available on HEC website).

 

The policy documents of HEC on plagiarism do not seem to me to have a provision for the case in hand as these presume the sitting Vice Chancellors could never be accused of plagiarism. The policy documents of HEC put in place a system that gives the responsibility of carrying out investigation into cases of plagiarism to the Universities and their so-called Plagiarism Standing Committees. The Vice Chancellor has the controlling role to play in terms of carrying out the investigation and constituting the Plagiarism Standing Committee. Thus the policy is not only flawed, illogical, impracticable but also illegal if the person accused of plagiarism happens to a Vice Chancellor. How on earth could the Vice Chancellor be authorized to investigate the charges of plagiarism against himself and constitute a Plagiarism Standing Committee for that matter! Would it not tantamount to making him a judge in his own cause? And would it not be in contravention of the universal and well established principal of law that 'no person can become a judge in his own cause' or 'rule against bias'?

 

                        The impracticability of the HEC's Plagiarism Policy in cases involving the Vice Chancellors is obvious from the fact that no action is being taken by the University of Peshawar in pursuance of your letter to the Registrar. The policy also enables the Vice Chancellor to sleep over the complaints of plagiarism against him for 3 months!

 

                        Now look at the consequences of the HEC's Plagiarism Policy in the instant case. The University of Peshawar has not initiated any process of investigation into the plagiarism of its Vice Chancellor and for three months even the HEC can not ask the university why it has not done so. In the meanwhile, the Vice Chancellor is completely free to abuse his administrative authority and in retaliation make me an example for others never to follow the suit. He is destroying my name and career and the HEC is watching it as a silent spectator.

 

                        Since I have unearthed the plagiarism of our Vice Chancellor, I have been made the constant target of retaliatory actions and victimization. Two show cause notices, a warning, charge-sheet and statement of allegations have been issued to me. I stand suspended from my service at present. The Vice Chancellor has also approached the United States Education Foundation in Pakistan (USEFP) on my back and recommended to it, on grounds / reasons not known to me till date, to cancel the award of Fulbright Ph.D Scholarship to me which I have earned through open competition. He is also threatening to oust my family from the official accommodation allotted to me on the campus of the University of Peshawar.

 

                        Keeping in view my example, what message the HEC is giving through its Plagiarism Policy to those who believe in and stand for academic and intellectual honesty: that after they have accused their Vice Chancellors of plagiarism, the HEC will be entangled in the web of its flawed, illegal and illogical policy and the complainants would be made to pay costs in terms of their career and good name!

 

Where is the HEC's policy of 'Zero Tolerance for Plagiarism'? Does the Plagiarism Policy promote it? Where is the justification for the credit that the former and present officers have been taking in the recent talk shows in electronic media for raising the academic standards of higher education! What was the need in the first place of assigning my complaint to the Standing Committee of Plagiarism? The case in hand is not a case of plagiarism by paraphrasing or stealing ideas for others in different words for which you might needed experts to detect the same. It is simply a case of academic decoity! Our Vice Chancellor has ditto copied 88 pages (133 paragraphs) in the same sequence from Dr. Kulwant Kaur's book/Ph.D thesis, including major and important parts of 2 chapters, conclusion and bibliography/references! You don't need committees to discover it. It could be done even by a student of 10th grade, even lower than that.

 

In view of the above, you are requested that instead of passing the buck to others under the shadow of its flawed plagiarism policy, the HEC must immediately make a declaration whether my accusation are right or wrong. Otherwise, after two weeks, I would be constrained to file a public interest litigation petition in the Supreme Court of Pakistan in which amongst others I will have to make HEC a party through its Chairman. I may hold a press conference in Islamabad Press Club where I will expose the Vice Chancellor's plagiarism and show how the Plagiarism Policy of HEC fails to address the issue. I will also show to the people how one is punished if one dares to unearth the plagiarism of a Vice Chancellor in Pakistani Universities.

 

I hope you would respond to this communication positively and in time.

 

Thanks.

[Pak-Media] Chomsky,”The US does not care about Pakistan”……

0
Professor Noam Chomsky sits on the eighth floor of the quirky-looking Stata
Center of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in Cambridge, US.
Former head of the linguistics department, the author and intellectual now
serves as Professor Emeritus at the university.
The man is known worldwide for his incredibly popular and polarising
criticism of American foreign policy.
"The US doesn't care about Pakistan, just like the Reagan administration
didn't care about either Afghanistan or Pakistan," says Chomski, when asked
how he sees the relationship between Pakistan and the US. "They supported
Zia, the worst dictator in Pakistan's history, and pretended they didn't
know that Pakistan was developing nuclear weapons. So basically they
supported Pakistan's nuclear weapon programme and radical Islamisation in
their bid to defeat the Russians. And that has not helped Pakistan."
According to Chomsky, the reason the Pak-US relationship hasn't worked is
because the concern of US planners is not the welfare of Pakistan, it's the
welfare of their own constituency. "But it's not the people of US either,
just the powerful sectors within the US," he said. "If the US policy towards
Pakistan happens to benefit Pakistan it would be kind of accidental. Maybe
it will to some extent, but that is not the purpose."
Chomsky believes Pakistan has serious internal problems but says there are
solutions. But, he insists, these problems have to be solved from within
instead of from outside.
"These problems have to be dealt with inside Pakistan, and not by the US;
providing them with massive military aid, carrying out drone strikes, which
enrages the population rightly," he says. "Drone attacks are target
assassinations and therefore a crime. Whether they are militants or not,
these people are being targeted because the US doesn't like them. Targeted
assassination is an international crime. United Nations' special rapporteur
Philip Alston, a very respected international lawyer, came out with a report
which simply says that it is a criminal act."
He also supports the 1973 constitution and believes it is suitable for
Pakistan. "It looks sensible on paper. It provided a degree of autonomy
within a federalised system, which makes sense for a country like Pakistan,"
he says. "Devoting resources to education, development and not military will
help."
Relationship with India
Speaking about Pakistan's relationship and outlook towards India, he said
that the Pakistani military has a strategic doctrine that they have to have
a military presence in Afghanistan to counter India. "That's a losing
proposition because Pakistan cannot compete with India in terms of military
force. Besides, the strategic position in Afghanistan doesn't really mean
anything in case of a war," he says. "Pakistan has undoubtedly supported
terrorist groups in Kashmir and terrorism in India, which has made the
situation worse."
The Americans are avoiding the Kashmir issue, he says, which is central to
the resolution of conflict in South Asia. "India has a very ugly record in
Kashmir – horrible atrocities, fraudulent elections, most militarised place
in the world. You can't just ignore it," he says.
US-India relations
Professor Chomsky says that it is a "joke" when US talks about giving aid
for civilian nuclear facilities in India. "The aid for the civilian nuclear
use can be easily transferred to military use. By granting India the right
to import US nuclear technology, it has not only allowed India to freely
develop nuclear weapons, the US has also violated the nuclear
non-proliferation treaty," he says.
Afghan war's future
"It is a complicated situation but I think there is good evidence that the
US military and political structures recognise that they cannot have a
military victory," Chomsky says.
However, he says, they [US] can conquer whatever they like, but the
Russians also won every battle in the 1980s but eventually lost the war.
"The Americans are therefore trying to find a way to extricate themselves in
some fashion, that it can be presented as a victory. They don't want to
admit they've lost the war, like the Russians."

Report on the initial review of selected projects funded by the European Union

0
 

Dear partners and colleagues.

I am pleased to inform you that FAO has published the report "Foundations for Future Action: an Initial Review of Selected Projects", which highlights some early EUFF (European Union Food Facility) project achievements, together with lessons learned and suggestions for the way forward. The report is also uploaded in the FAO/EU website and can be accessed via the following link:
http://www.fao.org/europeanunion/en/
The EUFF EU Food Facility is a two-year programme which seeks to help developing countries move towards long-term food security. It was launched in 2009 and over €228 million (US$315 million) has been channelled through FAO, allowing the organisation to field operations in twenty-eight countries in Africa, Asia and Latin America, touching the lives of more than 9 million people in rural areas.

The report documents initial outcomes of selected FAO/EUFF projects in 13 of the 28 countries and is the first step of a more comprehensive process of analysis and communication of concrete results and lessons learned from the implementation of the FAO/EUFF Programme.

Best regards.

[Pak-Media] News release: PAKISTAN’S NEWLY COMMISSIONED FRIGATE VISITS TURKEY

0

 

PAKISTAN'S NEWLY COMMISSIONED FRIGATE VISITS TURKEY

 

ANKARA, 21 April 2011: Pakistan Navy's Frigate PNS ALAMGIR (FFG-260) is visiting Golcuk Naval Base, Turkey on 21 April and departing on 24 April 2011. PNS ALAMGIR, an Oliver Hazard Perry Class Frigate, was commissioned in Pakistan Navy on 31 August 2010 at Naval Station Mayport, Florida, USA. PNS ALAMGIR will go a long way in enhancing Pakistan's capability to provide maritime security in North Arabian and adjoining seas. Presently, the ship is on passage to Pakistan from United States and is scheduled to visit various ports of the friendly countries.

 

The ship will stay at the Naval Base for another three days and shall carry out a number of harbour and sea exercises with the Turkish Navy. Navies of the two brotherly countries have a history to organize such visits and exercises on a regular basis. Earlier in March, a Turkish Navy contingent also took part in AMAN-2011 Naval Exercise held in Karachi, Pakistan.

 

Pakistan Navy is actively involved in maintaining peace and stability in the region - from Gulf of Aden to Gulf of Oman including North Arabian Sea. Pakistan Navy ships are vigorously operating and participating in all peace keeping missions. In support of UN Resolutions, Pakistan, alongwith other regional and extra regional Navies  is helping to deal with the menace of pirates in the Gulf of Aden and along the Somali coast. Continuous presence of Pakistani ships in the busiest sea lanes has helped the continuous flow of shipping and uninterrupted economical activities. These sea routes connect the oil rich Middle Eastern states to industrialized Western world.

 

In support of Pakistan Government policies against piracy and maritime terrorism, this ship will mainly be deployed for coalition patrols and anti piracy operations.
