Pakistan can't hire anyone to build reactors or buy most of parts needed because they are not willing to sign NPT, unless they become part of NSG. So, they are kind of stuck between a rock and a hard place. They know fresh water resources are not unlimited for sub-continent and coal is worst possible solution for electric short fall. So, they are also working on Solar [1] and wind [2], along with some development on nuclear which is indeed very slow.

How Calibiri font could bring down Pakistani government 9 years ago

The current Prime minister of Pakistan (who is under investigation in Supreme Court of Pakistan), provided an official document (I am not sure if it is a document from some bank in UAE or from UAE government) from 2006 which happens to be written in Calibri font which was not commercially released until 2007. This fact is being used a possible evidence for a forged document presented to the highest court of country.

Edit: spell check
