Acknowledgments
I am grateful to a diverse array of persons and organisations for
helping me at different points along the way. ECP deserves special
appreciation for placing the tax details contained in the
nomination papers and the FBR record of the candidates on its
official website. Without this giant step taken for the first time
towards promoting transparency in a culture of obsessive secrecy,
it would not have been possible to develop this study. I would
particularly like to thank Ishtiaq Ahmed Khan, Secretary ECP. I am
also indebted to Khizer Aziz, DG (IT), ECP, who gave generously of
his time and came to my rescue whenever I confronted a problem
accessing the relevant data.
This study could not have been commenced, much less completed,
without the singularly kind cooperation of Dr. Abid Qaiyum Suleri,
ED of SDPI, who facilitated at every step. Mohsin Kazmi,researcher of SDPI, who remained at my beck and call during the
course of this study, also deserves special thanks. Carrying out this
project without his able assistance was next to impossible.
However, none of the individuals and the organisations above is to
be identified with any of the conclusions arrived at in this study:
that is my burden alone.
