What do you mean by Chance ?? No one gave the chance to Pakistan - There can be two countries from Asia out of 10 memers (temp). Pakistan faced no opposition after Japan withdrew. (And Japan didn’t withdraw because of friendship or anything)
You are talking as if Asian countries are begging Pakistan 
Like always you changed the tune of the topic

Did you read it well?
** No one gave the chance to Pakistan -**
Or is it the other way around?

Didn’t you see humiliated defeat of India against Japan?

Am I?
Congratulations to Pakistan for winning the vote of Asia to become the UN Security Council member for two years starting from January 1, 2003.
It is interesting to note that while Pakistan staged a comeback to the UNSC within eight years, its biggest eastern neighbour, who also proclaims to be the ‘largest democracy of the world’, failed to get elected even after persistent and vigorous attempts for over 12 years. This has bewildered not only the Indian foreign ministry officials but has also sent shock waves to the hundreds of ‘think-tanks’ and other similar forums in and out of India, who are desperately trying to know “why don’t they like us?”
The answer is simple. Asian countries, especially the neighbours of India, are scared of its hegemonic designs in the guise of peace, democracy and human rights. They know that India has problems and feuds with each and every country in its neighbourhood. Therefore, they have been using very quietly their ‘power of vote’ in the UN to keep India out of UNSC for over a decade now.
**India may try to contest the election for UNSC seat on its own. But the records of the UN show that this unilateral policy of India might not succeed because in 1997, it suffered a crushing defeat at the hands of Japan when it decided to go solo in the UNSC elections against the will and decision of the Asian countries.
