and towns in Pakistan. This was in contrast to APP, which had
coverage in a limited number of large cities. For foreign news the

correspondent in the Middle East, an area of special interest to

centers of Pakistan, namely Karachi, Lahore, Rawalpindi and Dacca.

Peshawar and Quetta besides some leading papers in the Middle East,
Europe and the United States.
