Slowly Turkish soft power is rising in Pakistan which should slowly squeeze Saudi influence which gained traction since late 1970s oil boom. The Turkish series Ertrugul has been shown on national PTV and has been a hit.

Trust me right now let it be Neo-Ottoman Islamic la la fantasy. Let the Turkish influence first make inroads in Pakistan displacing the Saudi's. Then down the road that will mature and the secular nature will slowly seep in. Over decades consolidating amongst the younger generations.

I hope so but Pakistanis can be a disappointing bunch I fear once the AKP and Erdogan goes bellies up the Turks will focus more on the Turkic kin the ex USSR and also the Balkans more than us we will then have to find someone else to look up to

Neo ottoman fantasy promotes our soft power also gets tourists in.

In the past we were usually ashamed of the Ottomans because we saw them as backwards now times have changed.
