 Pakistan - EDUCATION
Education in the colonial era had been geared to staffing the civil service and producing an educated elite that shared the values of and was loyal to the British.
Slightly higher estimates by the National Education Council for 1990 stated that 2.5 percent of students--3 percent of men and 2 percent of women- -between the ages of seventeen and twenty-one were enrolled at the degree level.
Although the education system has expanded greatly since then, debate continues about the curriculum, and, except in a few elite institutions, quality remained a crucial concern of educators in the early 1990s.

 Talibanization of Pakistan’s transitional democracy
First, although Pakistan is a multi-ethnic, multi­linguistic nation, the Punjabis (48.2 per cent of the population), and Pushtun (13.1 per cent of the population) communities are not only numerically larger but command a disproportionately large number of positions in the army, government and higher echelons of civil service.
The Pushtun strategy was also meant to give Pakistan leverage over the course of the Struggle for Afghanistan both during and after the Soviet occupation had ended.
The Pakistan public thought it was their duty to help Kashmiri Mujahideens win their battles against India, even if it meant covert operations across the border in contravention of international law.

 Yes, Minister - Wikipedia
The fundamental plot of a minister being frustrated by the Civil Service was inspired by the published diaries of Richard Crossman after 1964, which are dominated by Crossman's constant struggle with 'Dame Evelyn' (Evelyn Sharp, the Permanent Secretary to the Ministry of Housing and Local Government).
Much of the humour of the show derives from the conflict between the British Cabinet ministers (who believe they are in charge) and the members of the British Civil Service who are really running the country.
The running theme of most episodes of the programmes is the struggle between (Dr) James "Jim" Hacker (played by Paul Eddington), the newly-appointed Minister in the (fictional) Department of Administrative Affairs and his civil servants and ministerial colleagues.

Until December 2001, as many as 20,000 military personnel were posted all across Pakistan to serve as the eyes and ears of Gen. Musharraf’s dictatorship by “monitoring” civil bureaucrats in their respective district headquarters.
He kick started his fraudulent election campaign in military uniform (wearing a look of clown) with his corps commanders in attendance (no past military dictator in Pakistan went that far in his perverse ambitions to prostitute the military for political gains).
None of his cabinet members, who are slave to their personal and parochial interests, has any stake in Pakistan.

 Pakistani Islamic Scholar Receives Top American Teaching Award
Ahmed describes his upbringing in Pakistan as “middle-class comfortable.”  His father was a civil servant, and his mother an aristocrat.  “They did not see a love for Islam and for living in today’s world as incompatible,” he said.  Ahmed said he inherited a sense of tolerance from them.
Ahmed, a Muslim from Pakistan, said in a telephone interview with the Washington File that he uses techniques in the classroom that he used as an administrator in Pakistan early in his career.  As a government commissioner in Baluchistan and in the Northwest Frontier Province, he learned to “never talk down to people.”  
The service at the National Cathedral, while Christian in orientation, included psalms from the Old Testament, a reading from the Quran and an Islamic blessing.  The Right Reverend John Bryson Chane, Episcopal bishop of Washington, and Rabbi Bruce Lustig, of Washington Hebrew Congregation, paid tribute to Ahmed.

 b. British India, to Independence and Partition. 2001. The Encyclopedia of World History
The fact that Pakistan began with a truncated institutional infrastructure (since most of the integrative institutions, such as the civil service and communication networks, went to India) has exacerbated the problem, at times leading the military to intervene in governance in order to maintain stability and efficiency.
Although supporters of partition had asserted that a shared Islamic identity would unite Pakistan, from its earliest days the state has been unable to resolve the tension between the attempt to use Islam to integrate very different regional cultures and the need to accede countering identities constructed around regional and ethnic identities.
The All-India Congress failed to agree on a common list of ministers for the new government, and the deadlock between Muslim leaders and Congress leaders continued.
