摘要:online social networks have given rise to many revolutionary phenomena on the web. People use to discuss several issues relating to their daily life on these social networks. Twitter is one of the most popular online social networks on the web. Users from different geographic locations use twitter and share their views about several issues. In this paper, we focus on world's most important issues being discussed on twitter. We are particularly interested in analysing spatial distribution of geotagged tweets for the most important issues of the world. This paper especially focuses on investigating the role of Pakistani public towards these issues i.e. how much they talk about these issues on Twitter. Later, we also investigate the reasons behind observed phenomenon on contribution of Pakistani people on social media. Besides this, we are interested to seek answer to the question that people of which country are more inclined to discuss the world’s most important issues on twitter.
