I have some Pakistani friends (PAF personnel to be exact, based out of Beijing) in real life and they are pro-China. What I have described is based on years' of experience here on PDF, well I do know it's not a perfect sampling of all Pakistani people. Some Chinese members here are also very offensive, they are not representative either.
Thanks for your reply.
Like you said, PDF is not actually a good sampling area.
The reason for our support for China is trust. Trust is irreplaceable.
The state of China is very trustworthy compared to the west. Yes the west is excellent in living standards and development and we need its business as well, but it is not trust worthy at all.
If Chinese govt gives a commitment to you and you give them money for a transaction, Chinese govt will make sure to fulfill their part of the bargain. A small example look at Pakistan, Iran, syria and even Turkey missile programs to some extent and possibly others missiles contracts.
Despite major pressures applied to China and even their state organizations were banned, they found a way to complete their agreement through 'third parties'.
Western countries sign a commitment and you pay them money, next month they get their parliaments or congress to block the deal and impose sanctions for violating "Human Rights" and many times keep the money too.
Long story short, in recent decades, common folk see China as a peaceful country which wants to do economic development instead of bombing countries left right and centre.
