In the athletics sections, I'd like to see first of all proper English and more importantly, addition of more information regarding the sport in Pakistan's history. To elaborate so as to justify it, the contributer mentions Asian significance. However, during the 1960s and 1970s (of which I can provide references if asked) Pakistan was an international athletics contender with track and field athletes such as John Permal defeating the Germans and British at the Commonwealth and other games on their home grounds. Yes, from the name you can make out that I'm related, John Permal is my father and a citizen of Pakistan, with his international gold and other medals decorating not just our home but the annals of the Athletics authority here.

This article is unbelievably POV! How can I help?

A complete rewrite is needed and probably temporary blocking for all the (inadvertant) vandalism that happens. - Ozzykhan 15:53, 9 February 2007 (UTC)

Somebody needs to revert the Volleyball section back to an earlier version or delete the crap alltogether. I'm going to change it back to what I had written for the section a long time ago. Feel free to delete/revise/improve it. Zaindy87 23:12, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
