The Gwader Port was built in 2007 with the Chinese technical help and the financial assistance of some $248 million and the acquiring the land from private owners to build the economic zone which took multiple years and the cost of Balochistan government around $62m. The ties of Pak-China will bring a tremendous development in Pakistan and China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) will transform the economy in the country which would end the power crisis in Pakistan and will provide relief to the industry.
In fact, the CPEC progress of the infrastructure and planned energy projects is going to be achieved by mobilising resources and completing financial and the technical formalities. The youth have to learn about various projects under the CPEC and they need to learn Chinese language which would soon be an essential element for success.
The government of Pakistan had planned to send 500 students from public schools and colleges to China for the purpose of learning the Chinese language. The Premier also directed to complete the work on Gwadar International Airport very soon. Xi had announced setting up a 10,000 strong special force for the protecting the project which would be carries out under the CPEC. Pakistan is set to sign a 40 years-lease with a Chinese company for the development a massive and special economic zone in the deep sea port of Gwadar. Hopefully, the friendship of China will continue to help and support the country to bring more development in Pakistan.
