ISLAMABAD
Chinese Ambassador to Pakistan Sun Weidong has said that CPEC will provide important network and platform to achieve win-win cooperation in Asia and beyond.
He was addressing the two-day national conference titled ‘Changing Security Situation in South Asia and Development of CPEC’ organised by the Islamabad Policy Research Institute and the Hanns Seidel Foundation.
Federal Minister of Interior and Narcotics Control Ahsan Iqbal also attended the conference. Session on ‘Geopolitics of the Region and Development of CPEC’ was chaired by Ambassador Inamul Haque, Dr Farhan Hanif Siddiqi from Quaid-i-Azam University reviewed the geo-politico-economic trends of South Asia vis-a-vis CPEC.
Chinese Ambassador said that the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor as part of the Belt and Road Initiative provides an important network and platform to achieve win-win cooperation in Asia and beyond. It is the best reflection of the Silk Road Spirit, featuring peace, cooperation, openness, inclusiveness, mutual learning and prosperity.
He said that CPEC is a crucial pilot project of the Belt and Road initiative since it has become a leading demonstration in the promotion of B&R as it now enters full implementation stage, making smooth and satisfactory progress.
The ambassador shared that CPEC has cross-border consensus from people on both sides because it follows principles of mutual partnership and peaceful development.
He explained that CPEC follows ‘a new type of international relations based on win-win cooperation by forging partnerships of dialogue with no confrontation, on the basis of friendship rather than alliances. China wants to actively promote policy synergies rather than Cold War doctrinal divisions,’ he stressed.
Providing data on China’s future contributions to the world in the next five years, he said that his country is expected to import goods worth $ 8 trillion, attract foreign investment worth $ 600 billion, and at the same time will be investing $ 750 billion in other countries.
‘China and South Asia with their collective population of 3 billion people will be the largest emerging market in the world and with the blueprint of CPEC finally becoming a reality with unprecedented development in four years, the early harvest projects are now reaching fruition and growing like bamboo shoots across the land of Pakistan,’ he concluded.
Iqbal said that through CPEC, South Asia will cease to be the corridor of conflict and become a corridor of cooperation. But for this, we need to continue engagement at all levels and remain firmly resolute in our commitment to peace.
He said that CPEC is a collaborative project between the two most reliable partners in the world – Pakistan and China – especially given their time-tested friendship.
