Abstract
The objective of this research is to examine the hard power perception of Pakistan and explore strategies for transforming it into a soft power image. The global community cannot ignore the developments in Pakistan due to its strategic location, large population, strong military, and nuclear weapons. Military leadership has significant share in the policy making. Qualitative approaches are employed in this research. Pakistan's "hard power" image has produced diplomatic challenges worldwide. It has a bad reputation among civilized nations due to human rights abuses, extremism, terrorism, and military interference in civil matters. Today's quick communication affects people worldwide through the internet and other ways. Narratives are constructed through the employment of soft power instruments. Strengthening of civil governments, cultural & educational exchange programs, electronic media, improvements of human rights, regional connectivity, trade, and public diplomacy, are some of the recommendations for the improvement of the image of Pakistan.
