Pakistani Diaspora World's 7th Largest

Brand Pakistan: Unfortunately, Pakistan has a serious branding problem in the world. Its name conjures up images of Osama bin Laden and the Taliban. This problem has to be addressed by Pakistanis in Pakistan. The Pakistani diaspora, however, can try and balance the negative coverage by highlighting the good things happening in Pakistan. Stories such as a Karachi slum girl going to Harvard , a 12-year-old taking advanced MOOC courses in Lahore , the country's rising urban middle class , and Pakistani diaspora making important contributions in places like the Silicon Valley . I make an effort to do it through my blog Haq's Musings . I hope others will support this effort by sharing it with others.
Here's a video of a recent presentation I made at the University of Chicago Booth School of Business on Pakistani-Americans in Silicon Valley:
