For trading with africa and europe without going through choke points like malacca strait or SEA which could be blocked in the future
Also its about 10,000 km shorter route.
LOL not even close. This is the snake oil that Chinese sold to Bakis which latter gulped down with the same zeal as camel cola.

Karakoram highway is very much weather dependent. Even it wasn't let me explain this to you why this whole thing was an act of Chinis raping Baki asses without lube.

Lets break it down.

1) Transporting goods over land, especially on trucks is the least efficient mode for long distances. Outrageously foolish.



Go through the source to have a better understanding.

2) This is the population distribution of China.



In case you still don't get it. 6% of Chinese live in an geographical area larger than entire India with few small cities and little to no manufacturing. Good luck to Bakis.:biggrin2: Unless their entire plan was to sell sheep skin clothes. In that case kudos.

3) Gwadar port, the imaginary success of Pakistani's 'strategic location', 'unmatched business acumen' and 'sky high IQ'. The GAME CHANGER. Here's the reality;

Ministry of Maritime has submitted a report in Senate that during the last five years, 99 ships loaded with cargo from seven different countries were anchored at Gwadar Port. The weight of shipments at port is 1.439 million tons.

https://customstoday.com.pk/99-ships-loaded-with-1-439-million-ton-cargo-unloaded-at-gwadar-port/

Let's compare this with the very NON GAME CHANGER of Adani Ports of India.

https://www.adaniports.com/Newsroom/Media-Releases/APSEZ-announces-FY19-results


GAME CHANGER Gwadar - 1.5 million tons in 5 years.

Non GAME CHANGER Adani - 208 million tons in 1 year.

I am sure you can do the maths.

==================================================

Feel free hit me up when China begins to export similar amounts from Gwadar but I am confident that my yet to be born children would have died of seriously old age when that happens.

Anyone who thinks Pakistan will collapse on its own due an economic crises lives in a fools paradise.

They will continue to get funds they will continue to arm themselves and they will continue to hurt us.

Diplomatic isolation and grey list ki bakchodi will only you take so far if you want them down you have to take them down.

Whenever we attack them once it only shows weakness our inability to take things a step further to damage things beyond repair to move beyond tit for tat.

From baloch to Pashtuns to the Shias and the Northern alliance it's all about money give them enough and every cause for them becomes a cause given by their gods.

It will better to wait for an asteroid to hit earth than wait for Pakistan to collapse on its own multiple powers fund them for their own benefit.

You think west will give us Pakistan on a platter to take. there are many variables at play they can't let India just grow like that.

The sooner we understand this the better.

Nah, issue is impatience not the inevitable downfall. Every key ingredient to make a successful nation is missing from Bakistan. As for the 'bakchodi of grey list';

According to some estimates, Pakistan suffers an annual loss of up to $10 billion because of the grey list.

=========================================================

You are missing the point here. Governments of 34 countries which are members of FATF (including 18 of the G20 economies) believe in their official capacity that Pakistan is part of the terror funding ecosystem. If you think it is of no significance then let's agree to disagree.

Everyone including the dumbest people know that Pakistan is part of a terror nurturing system.

G20 countries accepting Pakistan as a terror haven what a surprise they all knew from the start some even funded it.

This grey list is like a lollipop you give to someone and be like kuch nahi bhai hota hai.
It helps you for sometime but things are back to normal soon enough.

And what good has this grey list done to us they attack us continue to plot continue poke us everywhere they can.

Grey list special grey list almost grey list khatam hi nahi hota.

When was the last time US Israel France China or Russia or any other country decide to sit and twiddle it's thumbs and wait for the great UN to diplomatically isolate their enemies.

Never they all went ahead did what they had to because they know living in lala land will do them no good.

From Saudi to IMF they continue to recieve funds with no end to their terror machinary in sight.

With Iran and the new dimension and a possible conflict starting in ME god forbid west decides to start funding Pakistan overtly again.

You didn't read my post, did you? Let's not talk rhetoric. It feels more like ranting and raving than a mutually understandable argument.

a) Pakis are bleeding economically. For a country that is neck deep in shit $10 billion is no pocket change.

b) There is a difference between what 'everybody knows' and what they are willing to write on a piece of paper and put their signature underneath it. Try doing that even in your personal life and see its impact.

c) No money is free. Saudi's just bitchslapped their pets and prevented them from going to a meaningless conference in Malaysia. Same Saudi who vote against them.

IMF is slowly enslaving them. Even Pakis wouldn't disagree.

My rant was that we should not wait for them to economically collapse.

Saudi will bitch slap them IMF will enslave them and ghum firake everyone will use them directly or indirectly against us.

Them being debt didn't stop their terror activities when I see their terror activities slow or lower down then I shall believe that these sanctions have some effect.

China can ensure security of its trade much better when it goes over its own territory, rather than stay at the whim of other countries.

Cpec will obviously not replace sea transport but in case of a blockade in south china sea or malacca strait, it'll atleast give them a strong lifeline.

I am not suggesting road travel and am well aware of Heihe-Tengchong line. But you are forgetting that didnt stop chinese from making an entire HSR line and dual standard rail lines.

They are already running a direct train to Europe using half the route intended for cpec ( lanzhou-urumqi). All the infrastructure upto kashgar already exists.

Most of the route in pak is ML1 or the main railway line, that is to be anyway renewed for passenger use.

It would be suicidal for Pak if it jumps on to the US bandwagon against Iran. That's not going to happen. The US in any case doesn't need Pak for waging any kind of war with Iran. It has a dozen bases in the Middle East to take on Iran. These include Bahrain, Qatar, Kuwait, UAE Aman, Iraq, Jordan, Egypt and of course Saudi Arabia which is a sworn enemy of Iran. All these bases are part of US CENTCOM.

Of all these states only Pakistan is available for rent. The thing is the condom called Pakistan has been used way too many times already to fuck other Muslim states, don't know when it will rip.

Can't help you if you bring up non-logic logic. As I said good luck.

Correct. When Pakistani economy weakens, only the Abduls suffer. The state machinery never collapses. North Korea and Iran have been able to withstand sanctions for the same reason. Just offload the hardship to the commoners. It doesn't starve the war fighting machinery.

The US has to spend just 3 billion$ a year to feed the Pakistani war apparatus. We have to spend 60 billion $ to counter the nuisance. Better we spend 80 billion and finish the nuisance once and for all. We don't even need to annex them, just make small parts and leave it. The current strength of their war machine comes from a small number of Punjabis having access to the land and resources of the equivalent of 4 small nations. Once those nations become independent, they will no longer send any tributes to Rawalpindi, and the ISI will no longer have access to the Arabian sea.

Pakistan woos investors with belly dancers to revive ailing economy



In yet another desperate attempt to revive its cash-strapped economy, Pakistan featured belly dance performances at an event to woo global investors.

Pakistan's Sarhad Sarhad Chamber of Commerce and Industry (SCCI), Peshawar, organised an investment conference in Azerbaijan's capital Baku from September 4 to 8. The Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Investment Opportunities Conference had belly dancers among other attractions to rope in potential foreign investors.

Porkies have b=ventured into a new business of selling girls. We called it Bhadvagiri in desi terms.

Bartering away 50 sq Kms to China in areas opposite Gugarat is a clear and present danger to India's security and offensive doctrine. This area will gradually be developed into a PLA base in conjunc with a PLAAN base coming up at Gwadar. This is going to affect our Cold Start thrustline out of Southern Rajasthan into Sindh.

And that's what the pakis want. The Chinese will have their Southern flank covered. Good long term strategy by these wily Pakis.
Porkies will go to any extent to harm India. We should get prepared to wipe it out whenever it is required. Chinkis have left many areas of POK after india's bombing.
