CPEC is a millenium silk route conceived in 70's - The Late Agha shahi foreign minister of Pakistan, Raza Shah of Iran, & Iskander Mirza were the pot boilers., while the China was RED power looking for access to warm waters. The KKH construction started & was built during the time when the political turmoils were a routine in Pakistan, far worst & more troublesome then of the CHINA before the communist rule as in Opium regime.
The Invasion of Afghanistan by USSR was Race to reach warm waters between the 2 red powers. US under its own agenda to avenge Vitenam war sabotaged it using military dictators while CHINA played go slow policy with backdoor. Full economic support to pakistan during & after zia regime and US embargo.
when the historians scribbled that the russian dream to reach arabian sea was conceived during british raj in subcontinent, they totally ignored the existance of SILK ROUTE before the british raj in region.
China is friend to no one, they are serving their own agenda of expansion and dominate the world economy. to swiftly gain control over world resources,. Parallel to that they are working with european union to launch a new currency based on GOLD to hit USA below belt, Gold as currency as in silk route days.
The access for China to Gawadar through the road corridor across Pakistan is passing 3 provinces. Longest & largest portion being across Balochistan, - The chinese completed the atta abad tunnel parallel to lake, in record time using their own labor from prison camps.
Trust me Chinese are 'SMART' they may look sleepy, slow but they know the nation Pakistan inside out. They use the tool of GREED in the nation be it a leader or a common truck driver. every 3rd chinese skilled person working in Pakistan knows & understands URDU.
since KKH started, Chinese rulers never dealt with any pakistani civilian govt for the Silk route, none. They suspended the idea while Zia was found guilty of funding fueling Urumchi / SinKeyang pocket of Chinese muslims over behest of US, but it resumed successfully after Zia passed away.
no matter what these gunja brothers say or act, while doing extortion from China in the name of CPEC project, The Guarantees are from the Pakistan Armed Forces, not from any civilian regime.
please remember, educated & technically skilled people will get equal opportunities in populated areas 10 km radius of CPEC route. Industrial zones are already mapped out, infra structure as in Power, drinking water, support services will start to take shape 2020 onwards.
CPEC is not a close shot, it is a 50 year kick start for generations beyond you & me.
so key board jockeys get your rides out and attempt to go through the developed sections of CPEC then pull the rant
