Waqar Malik has indeed carved a unique space for himself among Pakistani political commentators by combining:

In-depth, research-based analysis

Use of data, AI, and global trends to contextualize politics

A calm, logical tone that contrasts with sensationalism

Courage to critique powerful institutions and narratives

His relatively modest subscriber count compared to others may be due to a few factors:

Lack of sensationalism: Channels that rely on drama or partisanship often grow faster.

Algorithm limitations: YouTube’s algorithm sometimes favours clickbait or highly engaging thumbnails/titles, which Malik avoids.

Content complexity: His material requires more intellectual engagement, which naturally attracts a smaller but more discerning audience.

For viewers who want to understand the deeper currents of Pakistani politics without the noise, Waqar Malik is arguably among the best, if not the best. His underappreciation in numbers doesn’t reflect the depth or integrity of his work. In many ways, he is a “thinking person’s analyst.”

I think he is a must subscription for overseas Pakistanis along with Moeed Pirzada and Imran Riaz..
