Pakistan

Pakistan is an Islamic country and so its flag is what is called an Islamic flag. Tradition has it that Sultan Osman I had a dream involving a giant crescent moon and from then on the crescent became a Muslim symbol while the five pointed star represents the five pillars of Islam.

Just after Independence Pakistan did many things, it had to establish its Government, parliament, law and order. Then gradually started ,big reforms. Agrarian reform, canalization, irrigation. But one big mistake was done by M A Jinnah to impose Urdu (in 1947 a minor language in Pakistan) to be the only National Language of Pakistan.

The chief mountain that passes between Pakistan and Afghanistan is the Hindu Kush. It is also referred to as the Khyber Pas.

It was separated because the leader of Pakistan named Quaid-e-Azam wanted a separate homeland for the Muslims so that they could practice the teachings of Islam. The Muslims could not live together with the hindus because their religion, language, culture, tradition, festival, etc everything was different.

So there was a need for a sepeate homeland for the Muslims.

Large reserves of marbles are found in Baluchistan, the largest province of Pakistan area vise. White and black marble is exported from Pakistan to many countries.

The vegetation of Pakistan varies with elevation, soil type, and precipitation. Forests are largely confined to the mountain ranges in the north, where coniferous alpine and sub alpine trees such as spruce, pine, and deodar cedar grow. The southern ranges of the Himalayas, which are of lower elevation, receive heavy rainfall and have dense forests of deodar, pine, poplar, and willow trees. The more arid Sulaimān and Salt mountain ranges are sparsely forested with a type of mulberry called shisham, a broad-leaved, deciduous tree. Dry-temperate vegetation, such as coarse grasses, scrub plants, and dwarf palm, predominates in the valleys of the North-West Frontier Province and the Baluchistan Plateau. The arid western hills are dotted with juniper, tamarisk (salt cedar), and pistachio trees. The area of Ziārat, Baluchistan, has juniper forests that are believed to be 5,000 years old; however, they are dwindling due to deforestation. Dry-tropical scrub and thorn trees are the predominant vegetation in the Indus River plain. Known as rakh, this vegetation is native to the region and can survive temperatures higher than 45°C (113°F). Riverine forests, found in the Indus floodplain, require six weeks of monsoon flooding to sustain them during the dry months. Irrigated tree plantations are found in Punjab and Sind. Mangrove forests in the coastal wetlands are an integral part of the marine food chain.

XXXI Corps - Pakistan - was created in 1988.

During the 1960s and 1970s, light industry expanded rapidly- especially textiles, sugar refining, fertilizers, and other manufactures derived from local raw materials. Large government investments in the 1970s established the country's first large-scale ship-building and steel milling operations; the production of chemical fertilizers was also given special government support. The Pakistan Industrial Development Corp., established in the early 1980s with IDA credit, developed industrial estates for small- and medium-scale industries, assisting their occupants in obtaining credit, raw materials, technical and managerial assistance, access to production facilities, as well as marketing support. Despite steady overall industrial growth during the 1980s, the sector remains concentrated in cotton processing, textiles, food processing and petroleum refining.

The 1973 nationalization program, which placed 10 basic industries wholly within the public sector, was reversed in 1991 with the enactment of an ambitious privatization program. In 1992, the government began auctioning off majority control in nearly all public sector industrial enterprises, including those manufacturing chemicals, fertilizers, engineering products, petroleum products, cement, automobiles, and other industrial products requiring a high level of capital investment, to private investors. In 1995, however, the speed of privatization began to slow as the sale of some large state-owned units were stalled and postponed. In 2002, the public industrial sector, under the Production Wing of the Ministry of Industries and Production consisted of eight public holding companies-Pakistan Steel, the State Cement Corporation (PACO), Federal Chemical and Ceramics Corporation (FCCC), State Petroleum Refining and Petrochemical Corporation (PERAC), State Engineering Corporation (SEC), the Pakistan Industrial Development Corporation (PIDC), the state fertilizer corporation and Pakistan Automobile Corporation. The majority of the 74 production enterprises controlled by these holding companies have been privatized, and most of those remaining are scheduled to be sold. The public sector continues to dominate in steel, heavy engineering, automobiles, petroleum and defense-related production.

Cotton textile production is the most important of Pakistan's industries, accounting for about 19% of large-scale industrial employment, and 60% of total exports in 2000/01. Pakistan has become self-sufficient in cotton fabrics and exports substantial quantities. Some long and extra-long staple cotton is imported to meet demand for finer cottons. About 80% of the textile industry is based on cotton, but factories also produce synthetic fabrics, worsted yarn and jute textiles. Jute textile output amounted to 70,100 tons in 1999/00. The textile industry as a whole employs about 38% of the industrial work force, accounts for 8.5% of GDP, 31% of total investment, and 27% of industrial value-added.

Other important industries include food processing, chemicals manufacture, and the iron and steel industries. Food processing is considered Pakistan's largest industry, accounting for slightly more than 27 of value-added production. Pakistan Steel, the country's only integrated steel mill, employs about 14,500 workers and has an annual production capacity of 1.1 million tons. The government plans to expand the mill's annual capacity to 3 million tons. Pakistan Steel produces coke, pig iron, billets, hot and cold rolled coils and sheets, and galvanized sheets. In June 1999, the first tin-plating plant began operation, a joint venture with Japan.

Pakistan has ten fertilizer plants, six state-owned and four private, with a total annual production capacity of 4.65 million tons. Production in 2000/01 was 3.66 million tons, up 10.5% from 1999/00. There are 21 cement plants, four state-owned and 17 private, with an annual production capacity of 19.2 million tons. Production in 1999/00 was 9.9 million tons., up 4% from 1999/98. Pakistan's chemical industry produces an number of basic chemicals used in its other industries, including soda ash, caustic soda and sulfuric acid. Industrial output from other major industries also includes refined sugar, vegetable ghee, urea, rubber tubes, electric motors, electrical consumer products (light bulbs, air conditioners, fans refrigerators, freezers, TV sets, radios, and sewing machines), and pharmaceuticals

Well in Dubai Pakistanis have the worst records of speeding drifting donuting breaking signals crashing into other cars etc in 2010-2011 most of them are caused by Pakistani immigrants that come from Pakistan. Here in New York City Pakistanis tend to have car accidents frequently due to speeding or turns because theyre not used to driving on the left side. Pakistani steering wheels are on the right side.

I THINK it would be the Khaybar pass, which is an extremely historical pass.

Pakistan's military dictator Ayub Khan decided to shift the capital city from Karachi to Islamabad in late 1950 as Karachi had become economic hub of the country and the infrastructure of the city was proving inadequate for the growing needs of the city. Before 1947 Karachi's population was barely one million but after independence of India and creation of Pakistan, over 6 million refugees from India settled in Karachi and many civic problems arose including that of transport and sanitation and water and sewerage services were proving inadequate and many slum areas had arisen.

Islamabad city was built during the 1960s to replace Karachi as Pakistan's capital. However the capital was not moved directly from Karachi to Islamabad but first moved from Karachi to Rawalpindi then to Islamabad.

The development of the country was focused on Karachi and President Ayub Khan wanted it to be equally distributed. He wanted Islamabad to be a modern and clean city, especially in comparison to other cities in Pakistan. It is well-organized, with the city being divided into different sectors and zones. Islamabad was divided into eight zones: the diplomatic enclave, the commercial district, the educational sector, the industrial area and so on, each with its own shopping area and park. Islamabad is also home to the Faisal Masjid which is well known for its architecture and immense size.

The provincial Capital city of Sindh is Karachi, Pakistan. Karachi was also the former federal capital city from 1947-1959. Rawalpindi became the interim capital until Islamabad was finished in 1960.

Located southwest of Pakistan is India, which is a vast country with lots of diverse terrain. It has a rich history, dating back to 5 millennia. Many famous landmarks are also in this country, including the iconic Taj Mahal in New Delhi and the beautiful Himalayan mountain range.

Pretty wide actually but with limitations since Pakistan is still relatively new to the Aerospace industry.

Pakistan does not build Passenger jets.

Pakistan also does not build helicopters. However, a Pakistani Engineer did build one in his garage. You can check out the video on youtube. This is proof that the nation certainly has talented individuals and with more focus it very well can build just about anything it pleases.

In terms of manned aircraft design & development the nation's capabilities are limited. With products such as the K-8 trainer and the new JF-17 fighter, Pakistan's Aerospace industry in terms of aircraft development is relatively new but growing. No doubt, as India begins producing impressive indigenous aircraft such as the Saras, LCA, MCA and LCH, Pakistan will have to step up its game to face the challenge. This will result in a rise in demand for Aerospace Engineers.

Unmanned aircraft however is a different story. Pakistan has had incredible success in developing unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). So much so that even nations such as Australia and the United States (the US border patrol) have bought UAVs such as the 'Border Eagle' UAV from private Pakistani Aerospace companies like Integrated Dynamics.

In other areas of Aerospace such as Missile development Pakistan also excels, some would argue it is ahead of India (this has been stated even by Indian media) in this field. Pakistan builds a large number of Ballistic missiles such as the Nasr, Abdali, Ghauri and Shaheen series. In addition, it also builds cruise missiles such as the Babur and Ra'ad.

Furthermore, Pakistan has also built quite a few satellites as well such as the Badr-1, Badr-2 and Pak-Sat that were all successfully launched into orbit.

Being a relatively young country, Pakistan is new to the Aerospace industry. However, every nation has to start somewhere. It looks like Pakistan has had more successes than failures so it looks like it is on the right track. Furthermore, if this country has the intelligence and talent required to build a nuclear bomb then it by all means possessed the merit to develop just about anything it wants or needs. All it takes is government funding but unfortunately, Pakistan's talented youth and professionals have been suppressed for decades by its incompetent leaders. If this changes, the country has the potential to become a greater world player than it is now.
