Since the rule of the Mian family in Saidu Sharif,[original research?] Swat has set the excellent ground for education and infrastructure improving its image as a well preserve touristic site.[citation needed]

In the last few years, Swat has seen great changes in all aspects of its society including an increase in education, modern health care centers and a new university, along with private sector colleges.

The reason that capital investment, aid, and charity, isn't predominant in Saidu Sharif is that the government views other cities as a more worthwhile investment due to the myriad of problems in this district.[citation needed][original research?]
