An Indian writes to Economist on Pakistan

Re: An Indian writes to Economist on Pakistan

We tend to forget that Pakistan has one of the lowest crime rate for a poor country....in the world...however the world travellers don't mind getting killed by a mobster trying to steal them....but getting killed by an Islamic Jihadist is a big news and something people don't like....and that exactly is our problem...

People should ask Newsweek/Economist if they can give some data about tourists/visitors getting harmed in a country....before declaring a country most dangerous...I am sure the liklihood of getting harmed in India or becoming a victim of a crime in Thailand is much greater than being harmed in Pakistan....
