US, Britain unable to win public trust in Pakistan
ISLAMABAD, June 24, 2011 (PPI): Only 19 % and 28% people trust USA or Britain respectively. The findings show an alarming mismatch between the relationship at state level and popularly held opinions, since both USA and Britain are Pakistan’s leading partners in economic and military matters, showed the results of a survey conducted by Gilani Research/Gallup Pakistan.
In a survey, a nationally representative sample of men and women from across the four provinces were asked the following question: “How much Trust do you have in these countries?” According to the results of the survey, 19% people said they trusted USA and more than three-fourths (78%) said they did not. 3 % did not know or gave no response. Britain fared a little better with 28 % people saying that they trusted Britain a lot and 67% expressed mistrust. 5 % people did not answer or did not know.
The study was released by Gilani foundation and carried out by Gallup Pakistan, the Pakistani affiliate of Gallup International. The recent survey was carried out among a sample of 2703 men and women in rural and urban areas of all four provinces of the country, during 29 May- 4 June 2011. Error margin is estimated to be approximately + 2-3 per cent at 95% confidence level.
