With regards to all of the respected members here, I would like to say that I think the aforestated article is seeing India and Pakistan with same old prism that equates us with Pakistan, this is nothing but ridiculous, the so called lines 'strategic balance in south asia' is absolutely bogus, the balance is always with of India, where does 'the strategic balance' exist, moreover this article never stated about our prowess in the space explorations and never written our achievements, and as per Badar - 1 & B are concerned, they are still lagged far behind than of us,and or primitive age (First one was a digital experimental satellite weighing 52 kg and orbited for less than 6 months, second one is earth observation and may have been already expired) and came in a gap of 11 years(1990 -2001) latter one, is only built by a UK company, PAKSAT is a leased HSG-3 satellite,(on which their General claimed ridiculously, I think he joked , that 'they are better than ours') and this nation, Pakistan only launched till date 2 sounding rockets ,Rehbar -I and Rehbar- II(based on NASA developed design) in 1961 & 1962 respectively, their own SLV program is a failure, least what they can do to acquire a out dated cheap Chinese copy production satellite and dub it as their own surveillance satellite, and then this type of media (asia pulse data source here)which reported this will come out with bluff such as " South Asia space race hots up.......," etc. etc.
