Pakistan: 'Pakistan's Prime Minister Zafarullah Khan Jamali resigned and dissolved the cabinet on Saturday, ending a 19-month tenure during which he was seen to have lost the confidence of President General Pervez Musharraf. In a two-step succession plan, the premiership will pass to outgoing Finance Minister Shaukat Aziz after an interim period of 45 to 50 days under the leadership of Chaudhry Shujaat Hussain, who heads the ruling pro-military Pakistan Muslim League (PML) party.'
