Answer
Dear Hameed:

Take out the objective.  This should be written on the cover letter and the passport details.  Cut what is absolutely not necessary.  Your resume only has about 15-30 seconds to be read.  Two pages is crucial.  You go into too much detail.  Give the top points...make better use of your space...there are some instances where you can put the information on less lines.  Warmly, R. Butler
