This thread can be made sticky to follow aid given to Pakistan which then enables them to brag a lot on how a regional power they are in all aspects.

$15 billion Saudi bailout likely - Dawn.COM News

ISLAMABAD, May 22: With an 'amiable' government in place, Saudi Arabia is expected to extend a bailout package of about $15 billion to Pakistan's highly indebted energy sector by supplying crude and furnace oil on deferred payment to enable it to resolve the chronic circular debt issue.

The US track record on aid to Pakistan is not consistent. Source: Center for Global Development (note: since 2001, economic aid has been high but is hidden behind military aid in the graph – see shaded areas and point at which dotted blue line emerges).

About two thirds of aid is reported to be "misused", rather a lot probably ends up resting in their generals Swiss bank accounts.

Still that's a pretty small piece of change these days when you think over $300bn went on bailing out CitiBank alone, and a day in Afganistan fighting what are often Pakistani proxies costs DC about $0.3bn.

In all religions, charity is Godliness!

Therefore, if some country gives aid to keep the Pakistanis in acceptable health, they are being charitable to the poor and needy!

But Sir, SA assistance after nuclear tests to Pakistan was not something typical aid by a rich state to poor needy state.
