I don't think you have proper knowledge about Pakistan. There is a very long range of Glaciers in Pakistan. The 2nd tallest mountain of the world K-2 is situated in Pakistan and is very near to these Glaciers.

A glacier is often described as a river of ice coming down from a mountain.

At the North Pole, there is no land mass - indeed there has never been a land mass at the North Pole over the past 400 million years - and the pack ice or sea ice that covers the North Pole and surrounding areas is much shallower than the thick glacial ice that covers the South Pole and surrounding areas.

By definition, a thin cover of sea ice is not a glacier since it does not move like a glacier and it is not formed like glaciers are by the accumulation of snowfall. Instead, it forms merely by the freezing of sea water, a process that occurs in winter as far south as Prince Edward Island and Vladivostok in the northern hemisphere.

As a matter of fact, Mount Kosciuszko, which is the highest point in continental Australia, is snow-covered during the winter and spring seasons. It's low height, only 2,228 metres (7,310 ft) above sea level and the warm Australian weather, explain why it isn't snow-covered at other times of year.

Australia used to have full glaciers running through the mountains. There are now no glaciers anywhere on the Australian continent because of the changes that occurred after the last ice age.

Our tallest mountain is only 2228m high. If it was 500m higher, it would have a glacier on it.

Australia has a warm climate across the entire continent, and there are no mountains tall enough to have a permanent snowpack. So, it is too warm for glaciers to form.
