[LIST=1][*]Pakistan shall evolve a proactive Afghan foreign policy rather than reactionary one.

Please Naveed Bhai kindly Suggest Outlines about ''SYRIAN CRISIS'':waiting[/QUOTE]

[B]Introduction[/B]
A retrospective look into the 20-month-old 'Arab awakening' highlights some observations. One needs to enumerate the events which turned into the bloody civil wars in Syria. There is a creeping outside intervention in the region. The pros and cons of the large scale military intervention are still awaited. First and the foremost observations is that the Arab uprising is indigenous and purely followed to bring down the decades long regimes. Secondly, none of these uprising in Arab world have clear-cut roadmap beyond the overthrowing of the authoritarian empire. Thirdly, the west is inspired by the richness and wealth of these regimes as the North African and Middle Eastern countries are rich in energy resources. However, the outbreak and the intensity of the civil war in Syria is unexpected and its consequences are even more surprising. The further discussion will elaborate the plight of Syria today and different dimensions of this civil war.

[B]Current Developments[/B]
In the present Syrian crisis, more than 20,000 people including civilians, rebels and personnel from Syrian army have lost their lives. Similarly, 120,000 people have fled to the neighbouring countries like, Jordon, Turkey and Iraq. The Alawi’ite sect, to whom Bashar al Assad belongs to, comprises 10-12 percent of the population of Syria in comparison of Sunnis which make 70 percent of the Syrian population. Assad used Alawi’ite militia, the Shabiha against the civilians or the rebel forces.

Recently, OIC (Organisation of Islamic Cooperation) called an emergency meeting of the 57 Muslim member states of the world for deciding the fate of Syria. During the proceedings, OIC suspended the membership of Syria on the basis of the violence in the country. However, Iran severely opposed the move. In this regard, Pakistan took a neutral stance and said that she respects the sovereignty and integrity of Syria.

In July, UN Security Council failed to adopt a resolution against Syria as Russia and China vetoed the resolution. Prior to that, UN General Assembly also passed a resolution against Syria as the violence was growing rapidly. In the same period, UN envoy for Syria, Kofi Annan rendered his resignation and the last hope of the peace process faded away.

[B]Internal dynamics and its implications[/B]
Hafez al-Assad seized power in 1970 in a bloodless coup termed the Corrective Revolution, was notable particularly in the time of older Assad for his ruthlessness and building the entire ruling structure around Alawi’ite loyalists. Under Hafez al-Assad regime, Syria made little progress in economic world but his ruling time was remembered for 1982 attack on the town of Homs to eliminate Muslim Brotherhood adherents. That incident left 30,000 people dead. A similar operation was carried out by Bashar al-Assad against the Homs. If Assad steps down, there are less chances of his survival and since he has used Alawi’ite militia, the Shabiha to attack the Sunni majority rebels. There were reports that Russian ambassador in Paris said that his country would give asylum to Bashar al-Assad and his family but later on the claim was denied.

Assad's days may be numbered. The bomb blast in the meeting where the defence minister and the head of the National Security Bureau lost their lives is the manifestation of the fact that Assad's regime is losing its control over the internal affairs. Recently, Syria threatened to use biological and chemical weapons against the external enemies. It is the first time Syria made an acknowledgement of having weapons of mass destruction.

Despite the fact there is great upheaval against the Assad's regime but it is also important to note that Assad government has enough power to keep fighting and it shows no signs of giving up. Most members of the Syria's Alawi’ite, Christian and Kurdish with small chunk of Sunni Muslims still prefer Assad's government. The rebels in Syria are divided amongst more than 100 groups and there is no clear political leadership. But if the fight prolongs there are great chances of ensuing ethnic, religious and sectarian violence in Syria as happened in Lebanon in 1970s. The situation was controlled when the Syrian forces stepped in Lebanon. Those who claim that the rebel forces have ability to create the Frankenstein, they are devoid of the fact that the opposition does not have a free army. It is more or a less rebels, who are operating at different places in groups. Furthermore, there is great evidence of the infiltration of al-Qaeda (strangely an ally of the US) which is providing assistance to rebels.

[B]External dynamics and its impacts[/B]
Syria is the 'land link' between Iran and the Hezbollah, Tehran's front line force against the Israel. It is in this prospect which brought Israel around to support the anti-Assad strategy. Curtailing Iranian influence in the Middle East is the main objective of Saudi Arabia and the Gulf countries not to support Iran especially in response to Shia uprising in the Bahrain.

Turkey is also sceptical about the manoeuvring of Syria. There is a large scale tendency of Kurdish movement in Turkey. Kurds being Shi’ite by sect and had been supportive of Syrian government in the past, viewed as suspicion in Ankara. Recently, Turkish Foreign Minister, Dovutoglu announced the establishment of the 'safe zone' inside Syria for the internally-displaced persons.

Russia has traditional relations with Ba'athist Syria. The former has an antipathy for the Sunni Islamists group forces as one can see during the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan. Furthermore, the Russians have a stack in opposing the West and favouring Iran in the Middle East. That's why, Russia used its influence and vetoed thrice the resolution against Syria.

However, China has different perspective of supporting the Ba'athist regime of Assad. Beijing is facing separatist movement in Xinjiang by Uighurs, Taiwan and Tibet. China perceives such incident with great wisdom and sceptical about the foreign interventions. Therefore, China wanted to have some good friend in the UN Security Council. Thus, Russia fills the gap. Once, the Chinese ambassador said about relations with the Russians, “We have been pushed into quasi-alliance.”

[B]Expected fall-outs[/B]
Whatever is the dimension and the course of the Syrian civil war, ultimately the political change will take place. The reason behind is that there is no possibility of sustaining Assad's government as the latter is involved in killings of his own people. Apart from Assad's government and his close aides all other protagonists are of the view of an early ending of the bloody civil war which has already spread to Lebanon and may spill into Turkey and other neighbouring countries.

[B]Recommendations[/B]
The shape and the feasibility of the Syrian civil war are still unclear. But the ceasefire is the need of the hour. There might be some preconditions to end this civil war and achieve the ceasefire. The preconditions might be given in recommendations like: a future role for the Assad regime leaders, amnesty for non-criminal government security forces, elimination of terrorist and foreign elements from the region that might belong to anti-government or pro-government, giving assurance to all religious and ethnic entities for their safety and security in different locations.

Furthermore, a collective force can be employed from the platform of UN and OIC to look into the affairs of ceasefire until the transitional phase passes out. In this regard, the new UN envoy to Syria should play a vital role in bringing peace and stability in the region.

Furthermore, Pakistan must adopt the strategy of neutrality at this critical moment. As Pakistan is fighting against terrorism in Fata, therefore, neutrality is the suitable solution.

In a nut shell, the political change is inevitable in Syria. The civil war has to end eventually. It is better for the Syrian people to end this bloody war fair as early as possible through peaceful manner. However, if the fighting prolongs there is a great possibility of growing sectarian, religious and ethnic violence not only in Syria but also in the other neighboring countries.

Current affairs is a paper of analysis .write to the point never ever digress from questions .yes heading and map can help only if relevant .

[B]2. Quaid's vision of democracy (Specially when this question is asked in Pak Affairs Paper)[/B]
[LIST][*]There are no people in the world who are more democratic even in their religion than the Muslamans. [*]Today, they are as applicable in actual life as they were 1,300 years ago. Islam and its idealism have taught us democracy. [*]You have to stand guard over the development and maintenance of democracy, social justice and the equality of manhood in your own native soil.[/LIST]

Yes you can, you can present views as 1st person under the heading of Critical Analysis or either when you are evaluating an answer critically; otherwise avoid using 1st person.

Rann of kutch and Sir Creek are two different issues because Sir Creek is about 96km long water strip in area of kutch, which is of great importance when it comes water disputes between the two countries. Jab k Rann of Kutch is a disputed area ov 3600 miles approx which was occupied by India after 1965 war.

Aik or point tht distint the two issues is k India is ready to talk over Rann of Kutch dispute where is they aren't even ready to discuss Sir Creek because of its water and oil enrich resoures.

Conclusion


“Freedom of conscience, of education, of speech, of assembly, is among the very fundamentals of democracy and all of them will be nullified if the freedom of press be successfully challenged.”
(US president, Roosevelt)

Media is regarded as the most powerful weapon of 21st century. It is as lethal a weapon as a nuke. It has the capability to convert day into night and night into day, a hero into a villain and a villain into hero. Media has brought revolutions in the world and has transformed the globe into a global village. It has virtually erased the geographical boundaries, removed the barriers of social, political and cultural differences and as a result this diversified world has been reduced to remote control. Media's role in education, awareness, opinion formation and entertainment is so diversified in its horizon and domain that one thing is clear and decided that the tides of media cannot be reversed, however, they may be altered in nature and composition.

The status of freedom of press in Pakistan, ever since independence has remained semi-independent, despite adequate safeguards and provisions promised by the constitution.

“There shall be freedom of press. It shall, however, be subjected to any reasonable restrictions imposed by the law, in the interest of glory of Islam, of the integrity, security and defense of Pakistan or any part of it, friendly relations with foreign states, public order, decency and morality or in relation to contempt of court or commission or incitement to an offence.”
[B](Article 19 of the constitution, 1973)[/B]

Freedom of press literally means the freedom of expression i.e. speech, writing and thinking. It also ensures the liberty to think and act without any restrictions and pressures.

A free press and electronic media is an essential attribute of democratic polity as both work hand in glove with each other. If democracy is the government of the people, media is the voice of the people. But it is a matter of grave misfortune for Pakistan that due to one factor or the other, ever since independence, media could not breathe independently and one of the factor that could be held responsible for this sorry state of affairs is the obstructed and failed democratic form of government.

The fundamental ingredient making democracy possible is the flow of information. Media is the only force that can ensure the flow of information. If restricted, hindered or obstructed in any way, masses remain ignorant, ignorant of their rights, their duties to the state, their needs and the role that they can play for the betterment of the society and the country they live in.

Media's role in imparting education to the masses cannot be stressed enough. Online lectures and speeches of the professors, scholars and intellectuals are playing a significant role in imparting formal and technical education to the masses.

Media's role in creating awareness among the masses regarding the political, social and economic scenario cannot be overemphasized. Owing to the mushroom growth of TV channels and newspapers, people today are more aware and educated about the surroundings and the steps taken by the government. This is promoting public participation in the decision-making of the state machinery. The skilled and bold personalities of the anchor persons raise people's voice, analyse government's actions and get the expert opinion.

Media has also played a significant role in bringing the world at our doorstep. It produces and introduces different lifestyles in the world, changes moods and behavior, braves the bold topics through dramas and talk shows. It also suggests the new household styles, guides the youth to new opportunities and creates civic sense.

Media also helps in providing religious knowledge by the competent scholars, answering the queries of public to solve their problems. It highlights religious events and promotes sectarian harmony.

In the historical perspective, one can safely say that unfortunately democracy could not flourish here in the true sense of the word. Consequently, Pakistan has not been able to evolve a full- fledged free news media. The media in Pakistan has not received the nourishment needed for its full flowering.

However, the electronic media took new form after promulgation of Pakistan Electronic Media Regulatory Authority (PEMRA) 2001, by the autocratic regime of president Musharraf. The authority has been made responsible for facilitating and regulating the establishment and operations of the broadcast media and distribution services in Pakistan. The mandate of the PEMRA is to ensure accountability and transparency by optimizing the free flow of information. This law is on the face to the article 19 of the constitution, which guarantees freedom of speech, expression and press.

Despite frequent martial laws, other factors that stand responsible for the poor growth of independent media could be indifferent attitude illiteracy, poverty, unawareness, attitude of indifference towards the political decisions, lack of interest in state affairs, political instability and political pressures and problems.

Illiteracy has proved to be one of the major obstacles in the improper growth of press and electronic media. Owing to lack of education, people have been rendered unaware of their rights, duties and of course responsibilities to the state. This dilemma of illiteracy gave birth to poverty and consequently, the poor masses that could not afford two meals in a day, could never realize the importance of newspapers and freedom of press. This sorry state of affairs has created an indifferent attitude on the part of the common masses. Consequently, the apathy shown by the government and the people gave birth to an orthodox and stereotyped thinking and nationalist approach.

There are certain ethics and do's and don'ts of media channels and press to shape the discipline of journalism so that they may seek truth, convey information, ideas and opinions with transparency and accuracy. These ethics advise the media personals to report and interpret honestly, striking for accuracy, fairness and disclosure of all essential facts and urge the necessary correction of errors.

21st century has turned out to be a century of media war, as it has turned out to be the most lethal weapon of the contemporary age. Drastic, cultural, political and social changes can now be seen as a result of revolutions brought about by media. Media is bursting forth like a meteor, breaking new frontiers. In this age of cosmic revolution and technology and means of communication, those archaic barriers blocking any people's access to independent source of information are being dismantled rapidly to the utter discomfort of the obscurantist still intent on keeping them intact. This is an era of satellite television, internet connectivity and mobile telephones. US constitution categorically forbids that:,

“Congress shall make no law abridging the freedom of speech or of press.”
