Dec 31 BlackBerry Ltd said it has decided to continue its operations in Pakistan as the government dropped a request for access to users' data. The company, which has faced similar problems in the past in India, the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia and Indonesia, had said last month it would delay shutting down its operations in Pakistan until Dec. 30. State-run Pakistan Telecommunication Authority had in July demanded that the company give access to its BlackBerry Enterprise Services , which encrypts data such as emails and instant messages.
