as an afghan-american Congrats to all the khyberi- pashtuns and to the ANP or whoever was responsible for the renaming of NWFP. Im very happy and excited for the province and its people. Alot of people dont know what the benefits of an identity is, now these ppl know who they are and what they are striving for. The pashtuns are more than 80% of the province and therefore they should have the final say in the province and they have spoken. For those who say that the minority are against the renaming, this issue of renaming of the province is nothing new, they haven been trying to rename the province for more than 109 years, it was a historical mistake but know corrected give them their due credit.
While All Things Pakistan has remained alive and online, it has been dormant since June 11, 2011 - when, on the blog's 5th anniversary, we decided that it was time to move on. We have been heartened by your messages and the fact that a steady traffic has continued to enjoy the archived content on ATP.
While the blog itself will remain dormant, we are now beginning to add occasional (but infrequent) new material by the original authors of the blog, mostly to archive what they may now publish elsewhere. We will also be updating older posts to make sure that new readers who stumble onto this site still find it useful.
We hope you will continue to find ATP a useful venue to reflect upon and express your Pakistaniat. - Editors
