Ex-generals make up majority of non-career diplomats

ISLAMABAD - Retired military generals, including some of those who had helped General (r) Pervez Musharraf during 1999 coup, continue to have major share in the quota of non-career diplomats by enjoying ambassadorial assignments.
Official documents reveal that Pakistan is represented by 13 such envoys that do not belong to Foreign Service and eight of the ambassadors are retired military generals.
