Ed_Haynes Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 Interesting. The almost total lack of Urdu and over-use of English suggests this largely intended for "foreign friends". It may also explain a new ribbon that Pres.-Gen. M. is shown wearing in recent photos, with what seems to be a MiD leaf. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antonio Prieto Posted June 20, 2007 Author Share Posted June 20, 2007 Thank youAny idea for the translation of the arabic inscription on the bar? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed_Haynes Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 Thank youAny idea for the translation of the arabic inscription on the bar?Urdu, not Arabic. "Tamgha-i-Eissar" or "Medal of Eissar". Now . . . just what does "Eissar" mean? I hate misplacing vocabulary and I'm (thousands of miles away from my dictionaries -- and the chap on the desk at the university guesthouse doesn't know Arabised Pakistani neo-Urdu).

Frankly, I might have trouble telling Spanish from Portugese. Look forward to seeing the star. If I had a scanner, I'd put up the latest photo of Musharraf.

Alejandro Canino Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 (edited) Close-up of his ribbons.The bottom right ribbon on Musharraf's uniform is a foreign decoration.The Star awarded to the Spanish general is the Sitara-e-Eissar. The Eissar medals were awarded to Pakistani and foreign nationals who participated in the Earthquake relief efforts in Northern Pakistan. Eissar, I think, means good deeds done in service of humanity. Edited May 5, 2009 by Alejandro Canino Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
