Washington

Newly appointed Pakistan’s ambassador to the United States Dr Asad Majeed Khan reached Washington on Monday to take charge of his new position.
A career diplomat, Dr Majeed until recently served as Pakistan’s ambassador in Tokyo. In the past, he has served in New York and Washington in different capacities. His appointment was announced by Foreign Minister Shah Mehmood Qureshi in October last year. Dr Majeed replaces Ali Jahangir Siddiqi, who was appointed ambassador by the PML-N govt at the far end of its five-year tenure.

Strong words of praise from Sherry Rehman for him. Apparently he served under he when she was US Ambassador.

Glad that the PTI government is sticking with career foreign service officials for high level diplomatic posts.

Honestly speaking I think your career diplomats are f**king useless along with other staff in key posts. Its like incompetent patting another incompetents back.

Depends on the individual. I agree that the bureaucracy has been heavily politicized, especially under the Zardari and Sharif governments, and officials that didn't 'tow the line' or were considered too 'independent minded' were sidelined, but the foreign ministry still offers the best qualified pool of candidates to pick from.
