CHIEF EDITOR’S CORNER Welcome to the Premier Issue of the Pakistan Armed Forces War College (AFWC) Journal (OPINION). An initiative and vision of the Commandant AFWC with the view to documenting the research work of members of the course and making it available for larger readership. I take great pride for being part of this maiden effort that has brought us to this stage of academic development that now we have the AFWC journal available on our NDU web Site. And now on the contents of this maiden issue, the research work of the panels has been arranged into four distinct parts. Part-1 covers the global/regional issues; Part-2 discusses the national security aspects, while the third part focuses on the military strategy. The last part highlights the views of individual writers on current challenges that we confront today vis-à-vis needs of the domestic / global policy constructs. From here on, I am confident that as we move forward, the research work reflected in the OPINION would continue to develop and subsequent issues of this journal would contribute effectively within the academic circles. Finally, happy reading and all the best until next time to all our readers. Commodore Muhammad Shafique TI(M) Chief Editor OPINION AFWC Journal OPINION Vol.1 No.1 June 2013 ii
