In 1950 Pakistan open the diplomatic mission in China.China has been a true and sincere a timetested friend of Pakistan and cooperated in every tough time of Pakistan. Bilateral trade and commercial links started in January 1963 with first trade agreement.
The Free Trade Agreement(FTA) in goods was signed on 24 November 2006 and in services on Feb 21 2009.
The buzzword of 2016 "CPEC" nowadays discussed in every electronic and Print media,specially the central point of debate in TV's talkshows,and and can been seen that the clever politicians using this word as a defensive approach for their innocent public in Pakistan, is certainly and obviously game changer series of projects for the fortune of Pakistanis.
51 Memorandums of Understanding (MoU)was signed related to diverse aspects of Bilateral relations, during the Chinese President Xi jinping'visit to Pakistan.later on Prime minister Nawaz Sharif visit China and signed a Memorandum of Understanding on CPEC (China Pakistan Economic Corridor) on 5th July 2013.Then China's President Xi Jinping in April 2015 arrived in Pakistan to oversee the signing the agreements aimed at establishing the corridor between Pakistan's southern Gawader port on the Arabian Sea and China's Western Xinjiang region.
$52billion will be used for many infrastructure projects in Pakistan out of which $32 billion is to be used for energy projects in the next five years.This project involves the construction of a series of highways,rail links,pipelines, total 2500km to 3000km long roads placed Gawader in the southwest of Pakistan to Kashgar 2500 km away in China's Western Xinjiang Province ,will absolutely change the future of Pakistan,will also benefit China's too,through Pakistan the shipment cost will much reduced one third of the path through strait of Malacca to middle East and European destination ,which is 9912 miles and daily cost for shipment of 6.3 million barrels of Oil is $18 million and total time to reach their destination is 45days ,but through Pakistan it will be 3621 miles to Central China and 2295 miles to west China to reach the destiny only in 10 days ,will save China's $6 million per day almost $2 billion every year.
This series of projects will benefit and will be the remedy of the shortfall of energy crisis of Pakistan , through CPEC 10400 megawatts at a cost of $15.5 billion will be produced upto 2018 and after 2018 more electricity will be added to national grid that is 6600 megawatts by additional cost of $18.3 billion,will double the current Pakistan electricity output.
The CPEC will be for all the provinces of Pakistan including the Pakistani Kashmir too,it is hope to complete upto 2025 to 2030.
Now will focus our attention the affects and impacts of the tremendous project on Chitral,some week before the PM and authorities announced the inclusion of the District chitral also beneficial from CPEC, As the road is a alternative safe path regarding security issues and geographical location (short as compared to the road crossing the gilgit) that's why this step has been taken by the authorities
we thanks to MNA Iftikhar(we appreciate for his mega project and communal centric approach of development rather than individualism, his community based development strategy will certainly benefit the public,he brought projects upto the cost of Rs57 Arabs,but the public is curious, questioningly for his out of public gathering and not using the media diplomacy and media politics,that's a sincerer leadership ),chief minister Khtak and central government for their concern as a alternative route for CPEC through Chitral,will surely benefit the chitral regarding the infrastructure in the form of widened and motorway liked roads links to malakand and northern side to gilgit,passing through the laware tunnel (Pakistan longest and highest tunnel 9 km )to shandor (the highest pologround on earth 14000 meters from sea level).
