The ''Daily Times'' (''DT'') is an English-language Pakistani newspaper. Launched on April 9, 2002, ''Daily Times'', which is simultaneously published from Lahore, Islamabad and Karachi, is edited by Rashed Rahman. The paper was owned by Governor of Punjab and Pakistan Peoples Party stalwart Salmaan Taseer. The ''Daily Times'' is recognized as a newspaper that advocates liberal and secular ideas.〔PBS Newshour, Nov 23, 1999; Here, "liberal" refers to the use in political theory meaning freedom of thought and speech, not to a kind of bias, as in "liberal press" used to indicate bias by right-leaning American commentators. "Secular" is as in secular democracy, as opposed to a theocracy with its accompanying censorship.〕 The ''DT'' has gained popularity as well as notoriety due to some of its editorials, considered controversial in some parts of Pakistan, but lauded in the international press. For example, ''DT'' was hotly criticized by some in the ethnic Pashtoon community at the end of 2006 for its editorial “Say ‘yes’ to ‘naswar’!”. Editor Rashed Rahman joined the ''Daily Times'' in November 2009. He had previously worked as Executive Editor for English-language dailies ''The Post'' and ''The Nation''. ==Columnists== The main contributors of the ''Daily Times'' include: * Rizwan Asghar * Ali Salman Alvi *Dr Hassan Askari Rizvi *Zafar Hilaly *Ishtiaq Ahmed *Munir Attaullah *Babar Ayaz *Gulmina Bilal Ahmad *Dr Mahjabeen Islam *Farrukh Khan Pitafi *Dr Manzur Ejaz *Mehmal Sarfraz (Former Op-Ed Editor Daily Times) *Zahir Hussain *Garga Chatterjee *J Sri Raman *Mir Mohammad Ali Talpur *Ali K Chishti *Andleeb Abbas *Rakesh Mani *Abbas Rashid *Salman Tarik Kureshi *Naeem Tahir *Dr Syed Mansoor Hussain *Yasser Latif Hamdani *Reem Wasay (Op-Ed Editor ''Daily Times'') *Ralph Shaw *Dr. Amjad Parvez *Iftikhar Ahmad *Mohammad Jamil *Shaheer Ahmad Piracha *Afrah Jamal *Obed Suhail *Dr Haider Shah *Dr Lal Khan *Dr. Saulat Nagi 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Daily Times (Pakistan)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
