Minister for Planning Ahsan Iqbal has said China-Pakistan Economic Corridor project is going ahead smoothly and with required pace of work.
In an interview with a private TV channel, he brushed aside rumours about any concerns of the Chinese government on the pace of implementation of the project and said both Pakistan and China are executing it with a sense of mission.
Iqbal said within just three years Pakistan and China have made it a flagship project from a piece of paper. He said China has no reservations on the pace of work. Rather they have appreciated our efficiency and commitment at every forum. To a question, he said, “We needed short-term projects for our growing economy.”
