The design process isn't that expensive, and now you're changing the entire argument. You forgot to mention that Pakistan was hoping to pay for all of this using Chinese investments that they hoped would top $40 billion dollars, don't tell me to read the article when all you do is nitpick.
Delays happen when it comes to large projects. The larger the project, the higher the chance of time and cost overruns. That's basic project management 101. Of course Pakistan is going to continue facing loadshedding, this will continue until the power projects are completed, and guess what, this isn't the only project in progress. This is just one of many.
a MoU is not a treaty, it is simply a declaration of intent and is not legally binding. Beijing had every right to present it's views and downscale as it saw fit.
Already been addressed multiple times. Read the quote you copied yourself, it completely contradicts your claim of China backing out of the project. Downsizing is not the same as backing out, like you seem to pretend it means.
Looking through the comment, yeah, it pretty much is mostly Indians. Out side of maybe 3 Pakistanis, everyone else is Indian.
Jungibaaz may be a mod, but he's still a guy with his own opinion, that doesn't automatically make what you say any more relevant or true for that matter.
And this proves what? Deals occur and can collapse at any time. Pakistan and China has hundreds of projects that they're working on, with most of them on track. You've posted a few exceptions, not the rule itself.
