Good choice. Very capable individual. Was employed by some American think tank in Washington before he came to Pakistan.

Indeed. Let's hope he brings in new energy. I think the post has mostly been held by military men apart from Tariq Aziz, sartaj Aziz and now mowed Yusuf.

He is definitely a supporter for fast tracking of CPEC priority western route so he is your guy and what I like about him is that he has been very vocal on the provincialization of GB or atleast changing the status of GB and giving them rights. That's a bold move and he is now in position to do that. Also he is a string advocate of turning LOC into IB so if the army didn't criticize his appointment then that means that they are seeing things from a different perspective.
