Pakistan is at the 115th spot in the list of peaceful countries of the world. The list has 121 entries, Dr Mubashir Hassan, former finance minister and human rights’ activist, told a seminar, Play for Peace, on Wednesday.
"Chaudry, be a good chap and bring 'round the water cannon. Also several hundred rounds of rubber bullet, the riot shields, and the crime scene tape. I've got a bad feeling about this."

The seminar was held at the Human Rights Commission of Pakistan’s (HRCP) auditorium and organised by Vattar Media in collaboration with the Democratic Commission for Human Development (DCHD). The seminar aimed at promoting peace through sports. Dr Mubashir told a large number of female students who participated in the seminar that several indicators, including confrontation and wars, were considered before declaring a country ‘peace-loving’. He said the indicators also included the citizens’ trust in the government, internal security, incidents of victimization, respect of human rights, terrorism, stability of the political system, relations with neighbouring countries, the system of governance, freedom of movement and speech, freedom of the media and politics and the ratio of corruption.
I'm trying to figure which countries are worse.
