who had migrated from any place to Madinah during the life time of the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH), before the
conquest of Mecca, and also the one who refrains from all things forbidden by Allah. Muhajirun the plural form of the
word means: the emigrants. A term used for all those who migrated with their Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) from
Makkah to Madinah. Both words i.e. the singular and the plural were driven from the word “Hajarah” which means to

Pakistan Meat Exports: Strategizing Productivity Enhancement. A Policy Paper
Shoaib Sarwar, Dr. Muhammad Aleem
Page no 561-567 |
10.21276/sjbms
This chronicle encompasses the value chain of Pakistan Meat Exports with the help of industry stakeholders.
Global Halal food trade is believed to be approximately US$ 1.3 billion, which was US$ 0.5 billion, annually, just 5-6
years ago. The case study of country’s meat export has indicated the existing condition of farmers, meat processors,
exporters, target markets, supply chains management, marketing approaches, financial constraints, and sustainability of
business. The exporters have been competing in 8-10% share of carcass (meat with bones) market globally and
neglecting 90-92% share of boneless and value added meat products internationally. India has become the largest
exporter of meat products in 2017 with 1,925,000 Metric Tons and China’s growing population and demand for food
products have made them one of the biggest importers of meat/meat products (950,000 Metric Tons), respectively in
recent years as illustrated by USDA. FAO has stated that human meat protein consumption will rise from 25.5 kg to 37
kg by 2030. The research methodology used for this policy paper is semi structured interviews and meetings with meat
industry stakeholders. Pakistan meat export is at 35,388 Metric tons and worth of US$ 244 million (2015) which
constitutes predominantly the chilled carcass meat. Its value added meat products has negligible share in global market
due to non-reliable supply chain, lack of local meat brands, and poorly managed marketing strategies. Majority of our
meat exporters have been dealing with Pakistani expatriates overseas which has high risk due to financial fragility.
Proposals and recommendations have been submitted on small to medium term and medium to long term strategies to
increase the profitability and productivity of meat export sector of Pakistan. It is highly recommended to establish local
meat brands, which will aid the industry to learn with meat production, processing, supply chain, and marketing
management to further compete in world meat market. Nevertheless, it is only possible after de-capping the price of meat
in the local markets.

Cemento-Ossifying fibromas are rare fibro-osseous lesions that affect the jaw bones and are included
in the group of mesodermal odontogenic tumours. Clinically, it is a large asymptomatic tumor of aggressive
appearance. Four separate categories have been identified: Periapical cemental dysplasia, benign cementoblastoma,
cementifying fibroma and a rare gigantiform variety. It has been suggested that the origin of these tumour is
odontogenic or from periodontal ligament. This lesions commonly seen in women in 3rd and 4th decade of life.
Usually in the jaw region the lesions are found mostly in the tooth bearing area. In this article, we present two
cases of unusual presentation of Central Ossifying Fibroma involving lower border of mandible and its

An implant-supported overdenture may be practically advantageous over conventional complete denture and
removable partial denture. They reduce bone resorption and has greater prosthesis stability, improved maintenance and
better esthetics. Implant supported overdenture may reduce the amount of soft-tissue coverage and extension of the
prosthesis. Hygiene condition and home maintenance procedures are improved with the overdenture compared with fixed
prosthesis. Implant supported overdenture limits lateral movements and consequently minimize soft-tissue trauma.
Greater stability of implant-supported overdenture drives from mechanical attachment of the implant support system
retaining the restoration. In severe resorption cases, this is a better alternative than the fixed restoration.

people who use hospital services has also increased. Whereas the pecuniary and other important resources available to

Over the years, there has been a sudden increase in the number of vehicles on road. Traffic congestion, is a
growing problem everyone faces in their daily life. Manual control of traffic by policeman has not proved to be efficient.
Also the predefined set time for the signal at all circumstances (low and high traffic density) has not solved this problem.
Mechanisms to use IR sensors to detect traffic density is not very effective as even a single vehicle detected at the last
sensor can imply high traffic density even when there is free space in front of it. A model to effectively solve the above
mentioned problems by using Internet of things for traffic controlling systems which also gives priority to emergency
vehicles is proposed. We use cloud for internet based computing, where different services such as server, storage and
application are delivered to an organization. Cloud computing store data on the internet which must give continuous
update so that it can handle traffic smoothly. We then use load cell to approximately calculate the amount of time
required to clear the traffic on a particular road based on the density of traffic. RF transmitters are used in emergency
vehicles to transmit signal to RF receiver mounted on traffic signal. This makes sure the signal is turned green to let the
emergency vehicle pass by. A real-time traffic information collection and monitoring system to solve the problem of realtime monitoring and controlling road vehicles is proposed. This system employs key technologies: Internet of Things,
Load Cells and RF Transmitters and Receivers to collect, Store, Manage and Supervise traffic information. Multiple
advantages of the work are: Cost effectiveness, reduction in waiting/ travelling times with cost and fuel efficiency, traffic
surveillance using URL available for smart decision making is of major concern.
