Pakistan decided that instead of calling it, "Pakistan National Peace Prize," they would name it, "The Malala Prize". Why did this upset her father.

• He thought the award should be named the Khushal award after the school she went to

• It would put a target on Malala when the Taliban came back.

• Awards are only named after dead people. Naming it after somebody who is alive is bad luck.

• He thought it should represent Pakistan, and not just one person.
