I think in most cases the audience for the english work is infact western readers; insight into the mystery that is Pakistan/Islam and mostly related to geopolitical issues. Honestly, this is what the westerners primarily consume i guess.

Positive, spirited work which you hope to be produced for Pakistanis; isn’t just there, because there is no one to read.

I don’t agree to this. I have seen Khushwant Singh’s novels like Delhi, A Train to Pakistan, etc selling more than these depressed works of Pakistani writers in Pakistan.
