By  Sandhya Jain  -   May 16, 2017      By signing CPEC, is Pakistan signing away its freedom to China? Graphic courtesy  Dawn, Reuters Will the elite of Pakistan take a cut and sign anything? Pakistan Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif may have received an exceptionally warm welcome when he arrived in Beijing on May 13, 2017 for the Border Road Initiative (BRI) summit, of which the China Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) is the crown jewel, but he may return to a more questioning opinion back home as details of the deal become known. In a piece of spectacular journalism, Khurram Husain of  Dawn  newspaper (May 15) has revealed details of Chinese intentions and priorities in Pakistan for the next fifteen years. The country’s military mentors will also have much to explain regarding Chinese virtual takeover of Pakistan. There appear to be two versions of the

Mocking his political opponents during an address to FATA convention, he claimed that the “show” of both Nawaz Sharif and Imran Khan is now over. “We have no hopes from this government…it is incompetent,” Zardari said. Taking an aim at Imran Khan, Zardari said the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf chairman is afraid of going to jail and comes out to address rallies directly from his drawing room “after Sheikh Rasheed first tells him he has reached”. Taking credit for the progress of the Federally Administered Tribal Areas, he said that efforts by his party had enabled everyone in the country to carry out political activities in the Federally Administered Tribal Areas. Zardari said that the exte

Instead she made a plea for trade. “Protectionism must be fought,” she said at the event attended by 30 national leaders invited by President Xi Jinping, “erecting new trade barriers is dangerous and endangers global growth.” Her heartfelt comments came after EU nations refused to sign a joint statement about trade supporting the new silk road link. They refused because China had not accepted any of Europe’s calls for free trade and equal conditions. On Monday, when the forum ends, leaders are still expected to publish a communique supporting the huge infrastructure project which sees billions invested into building roads, harbors and railway lines to link Asia, Europe and Africa. Ms. Zypries’ plea

(Reuters/Noor Khamis) China’s campaign to build a massive network of land and sea links connecting Asia, Europe, the Middle East, and Africa is expected  to benefit  the African countries along the route. Chinese officials pledged an extra  $113 billion in funding  for the project at a summit in Beijing over the last two days.

Xi made  his latest bid for global leadership on Monday, telling leaders including Russia’s Vladimir Putin and Turkey’s Recep Tayyip Erdoğan that the world should reject protectionism, embrace globalisation and pull together like a skein of geese. Xi’s comments came on the second and final day of a high-profile summit in Beijing about his  Belt and Road initiative , a multibillion-dol

Photo: Reuters Behind China's trillion-dollar effort to build a modern Silk Road is a lending programme of unprecedented breadth, one that will help build ports, roads and rail links, but could also leave some banks and many countries with quite a hangover. At the heart of that splurge are China's two policy lenders, China Development Bank (CDB) and Export-Import Bank of China (EXIM), which have between them already provided $200 billion in loans throughout Asia, the Middle East and even Africa. They are due to extend at least $55 billion more, according to announcements made during a lavish two-day Belt and Road summit in Beijing, which ends on Monday. Thanks

Dorsey Increasingly caught up in the Middle East’s multiple conflicts, Pakistan is struggling to balance relations with rivals Saudi Arabia and Iran amid concern in Islamabad that potential US-Saudi efforts to destabilize the Islamic republic could turn its crucial province of Balochistan, a lynchpin in China’s One Belt, One Road initiative, into a battleground. Concern about Balochistan is buffeted by a sense in Islamabad of problems along its multiple borders. Pakistani officials fear that China may be seeking closer ties with India at Pakistan’s expense, despite its massive $56 billion investment in Pakistani infrastructure that centres on linking the troubled Baloch port of Gwadar, a gateway to the Gulf, with China’s restive, north-western province of Xinjiang. Pakistani officials see a  statement by

He said that the road was not part of the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor and that it was being built by the Balochistan government. Work on the road had started three years ago but had remained suspended intermittently due to security concerns and paucity of funds, he said. ARTICLE CONTINUES AFTER AD Recently, the contractor had resumed work on the road without informing the local administration, the deputy commissioner said.

(Reuters) All colonialists come with a veil of pretence. They show their true colours only after settling down on the territory they want to conquer. For a country (Pakistan), which is the product of 100s of years of struggle against colonialism, it shouldn’t be too hard to diagnose the colonial ambitions of a rising power, in this case China, which has now made its ambitions open to the world in the form of “One Belt, One Road (OBOR)” initiative that includes China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) as a “flagship” project. Chinese official daily Global Times says, “The global economy needs new driving forces, and economic globalization needs new dimensions. The Belt and Ro

As a result, not only does India have to worry about Chinese might on its northern and eastern borders, but also its western one.  Pakistan’s  Dawn  newspaper has revealed key details of the China-Pakistan-Economic Corridor (CPEC) which make China’s hidden intentions quite clear: it plans to reduce Pakistan to a vassal state, by promising economic gains to that country in lieu of greater Chinese control of that country’s economic direction. Given the congenital nature of Pakistan’s animosity to India, the chances are it will ultimately buy the Chinese idea. Hate means a willingness to sell yourselves to the devil. 🔷CPEC is not just about building roads and infrastructure, but taking over “thousands of acres” of Pakistani agr
