Why do Pakistanis drop out of school?

Most Pakistanis live among poverty and welfare and also many Pakistanis tend to get emotional and depressed from their parents which in that case they drop out of school. Uk Norway UAE Spain and Greece have a large amount of Pakistani drop outs. Most Pakistani drop outs are girls because like when I just said emotional and depressed I meant by Pakistani girls because most Pakistani girls have to get married. But as far as for Pakistani they're drop out is also high but they drop out of high school because they either feel paranoid or insecure in school or either they just don't take education very seriously:)

Essay on Is foreign aid a blessing or a curse for Pakistan?

As the World Economic Forum begins its annual meeting in Davos, Switzerland, amid concerns that the economic slowdown in the wealthy countries is undermining public support for economic aid, newly updated digests of American and international public opinion reveal continued underlying public support for development assistance to poor countries, though there has been a slight softening of support in the United States.

In the European Union, very large majorities in all 27 member states support aid to people in developing countries, and majorities in 25 of them say that the EU should fulfill its past pledge to increase aid, despite the economic downturn. In the United States support for economic aid in principle has softened a bit but still commands the backing of a large majority. At the same time, public support for aid levels continues to be weakened by extreme overestimations about the amount of the U.S. budget that actually goes to aid.

These digests have been developed by the Council on Foreign Relations' International Institutions and Global Governance program and the Program on International Policy Attitudes. They provide comprehensive analyses of international and U.S. polls on the world's most pressing challenges -- and the institutions designed to address them. The digest of international polling on economic development can be found here and the digest of U.S. polling here. Analysis of these findings by CFR's Stewart Patrick can be found on his blog.

Very large majorities in all twenty-seven European Union member states think it is important to "help people in developing countries" (Eurobarometer 2010). On average, 89 percent took this position while only nine percent said it was not important. Publics most supportive of aid included those in Sweden (96 percent), Ireland (95 percent), as well as Denmark, Finland, and Spain (all 94 percent). The lowest majority among countries polled was a still robust 79 percent in Bulgaria.

Most significant, majorities of Europeans are willing to stand behind past pledges to increase aid, even in the midst of the financial crisis. Respondents were told "The European Union has promised to increase the level of its aid towards developing countries" and asked "Given the current economic situation" whether the E.U. should increase aid to the level promised, increase it above the level promised, not increase aid, or reduce it. Majorities in 25 of the 27 countries favored keeping the pledge. On average, 64 percent said the EU should keep its promise by increasing aid (50%), with some (14%) saying aid should be increased beyond promised levels. Fifteen percent said aid should not be increased and 14 percent said it should be reduced.

In the United States, majorities continue to support economic aid in principle, though the size of the majorities appears to have diminished. In a 2010 poll by the Chicago Council on Global Affairs (CCGA), as compared to 2004, those favoring the provision of "food and medical assistance" abroad slipped from 82 to 74 percent support, and "aid to help needy countries develop their economies" from 70 to 62 percent support in 2010 poll by the Council on Global Affairs.

As in years past, Americans tend to say that their government should cut back on economic aid, but this attitude seems to rest on persistent, extreme overestimations of how much the United States is spending. Sixty percent of Americans said in the 2010 CCGA poll said that their government should cut back on economic aid to other nations--up from 55 percent in 2008.

But when a 2010 WorldPublicOpinion.org poll asked respondents to estimate the percentage of the federal budget going to foreign aid, respondents on average reckoned 27 percent (median 25 percent). Most significantly, when asked what an appropriate percentage would be, the average response was 13 percent (median: 10 percent)--or ten times the actual percentage. Similar responses have been found in previous polls for decades now.

When Americans were asked to deal with the budget in some detail as part of a larger exercise for reducing the deficit, they did not single out foreign aid, especially its more altruistic forms for cuts. A representative sample of Americans in an online exercise was presented with the U.S. discretionary budget, broken out into 31 areas, and given the opportunity to make changes as they saw fit, getting constant feedback about the impact of their decisions on the deficit (Program for Public Consultation 2011). Respondents actually increased levels of humanitarian aid by 18 percent on average, and only lightly nicked global health (cut 2 percent); development assistance received a bit more in cuts (14 percent). Combined, respondents cut these three programs just 3 percent--even in the context of seeking to reduce the federal budget deficit. This was significantly less than the average cut of 11 percent they advocated across the 31 programs. Respondents did make substantial cuts, however, to U.S. aid programs with less altruistic and more strategic objectives: the Economic Support Fund (cut 23 percent) and military aid (cut 15 percent).

What was the main reason of Ayub khan downfall?

General Muhammed Ayub Khan was appointed as Cheief Martial Law Administrator (CMLA) by President Iskander Mirza on October 7, 1958. Khan receives tremendous support from the people of the country as they were frustrated by the ill political situation in Pakistan.

Ayub Khan announced the new constitution of Pakistan in 1962. In this constitution it was laid down that the future form of Government would be Presidential. This form of Government gives most of the powers to the president for running the affairs of the state. Also the president was to be elected through an electoral college that consists of 80,000 basic democrats. The constitution was severely criticized for the form of government and basic basic democratic (BD) system of election.

Ayub started to interfere in the religion by making some laws that were highly criticized in the religious circles. But the step that primarily takes him off the ground is the death sentence given to Maulana Maududi (Ameer Jamaat-e-Islami Pakistan). The supporters of the part along with the people who have sympathy with the religious leader started a campaign against Ayub Khan. Although, later death sentence was taken back due to the intense pressure from the public but this action from the government gave a death blow to Khan's popularity in the religious circles.

Ayub Khan made many economic reforms that latter caused his downfall. His policies gave rise to discrimination. These reforms caused dis-satisfaction among the people of East Pakistan. He also made some agricultural reforms. Accordinbg to these reforms the landowners were not allowed to keep land beyond the limits set by the government. The excesss of land was taken over by the government and a reasonable compensation was offeref to them. The big landowners were not happy with the step taken by Ayub Khan. The peasants who were given the lands were also dissatisfied because the land they were given was not fertile.

Who divided India into a Hindu western half and a muslim eastern half?

Answer 1

  • The Partition of India was the partition of the British Indian Empire that led to the creation, on 14 August 1947 and 15 August 1947, respectively, of the sovereign states of the Dominion of Pakistan (it later split into the Islamic Republic of Pakistan and the People's Republic of Bangladesh) and the Union of India (later Republic of India).
  • The "Partition" that refers to the division of the Bengal province of British India into East Pakistan and West Bengal (India), and the similar partition of the Punjab province into Punjab (West Pakistan) and Punjab, India, refers also to the respective divisions of other assets, including the British Indian Army, the Indian Civil Service and other administrative services, the railways, and the central treasury.

Answer 2

The British government consulted with both the Muslim and Hindu community leaders and found that the Muslims seriously pressed for independence from the Hindu-majority areas. As a result, when they ended the British Imperial GOvernate of India, they set up the borders most suitable to creating a Muslim-majority state, resulting in West Pakistan and East Pakistan (now Bangladesh) with India sandwiched between them.

What drawbacks in justice system of Pakistan?

The major problem with the Justice system in Pakistan is that there is little justice. Corruption and bribery exist on such extreme and wide spread levels. If you need something done, it's much easier to pay your way out of it. For example, suppose you get a traffic ticket of some sort. The police will take the offender's driving license, issue a ticket, and instruct the offender to go to xyz location to pay the ticket and get the license back. The problem is that when the offender goes to pay the ticket there would be forms and such an archaic way of handling the small issue that it is just much easier to pay the police money (that he personally keeps) and not get a ticket in the first place. You can subtitute any problem in place of the police example, and this is how much chaos you have to deal with all of the time. Systems are improving, but even still, it will take quite a while for the mentality of bribery and corruption to change. No one takes laws seriously from those laws that do exist.

If we go into more important issues such as crime, we'll see exactly what the issue is on a very large scale. Take this issue. When I lived in Pakistan with my inlaws we had a servant who's mother in law came from their village terribly beat up from her husband. We asked her to press charges, but she refused stating that it'd be useless. Her husband will merely pay the judge/officers off and likely charge her for false accusations. So people feel no sense of justice because there is no justice.

People don't feel the need to take matters into their own hands in the U.S. simply because our justice system is much more solid. We can't bribe the police and judges so easily. Maybe higher ups do encounter corruption on some level. What government doesn't? However, the common folk feel safe, protected, and as though justice will be served in a fair way, overall. Sure mishaps happen, but overall the system is better in how its carried out consistently. The public's perception of justice is really the key as well which sort of voids incidents of injustice that happen here and there.
