WHAT a shame that the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa government has stopped the ceremony to launch Malala Yousufzai\u2019s book, I am Malala, at the Peshawar University.<\/p>\n

What signals do we send to the world when we invite international teams to come and play in Pakistan, on the one hand, and stop a book launch for fear of security, on the other hand?<\/p>\n
