Five million Chinese will be working in Pakistan in next four years

[MH.Yang]

how many chinese are currently in Pakistan working and visiting i think at a time the num wont exceed 100K or 150K. i guess he meant to say 500K but indians are to bad in numbers and couldn't understand what this Pakistani doctor was saying.

Max 50k people.
China's labor analysis report on Pakistan points out. In the next five years, Pakistan will provide 1.4 million new manufacturing population.

I think that CPEC can obtain 500k of them, so the max number is 50k Chinese. Moreover, it has been difficult for Chinese enterprises to recruit overseas staff, and few people are willing to work abroad.



Moreover, China's investment in CEPC needs to obtain income, it is not just a transportation channel. What China wants is not a market, Pakistan's market is not big. China wants Pakistan's young population.
If all things are done by Chinese workers. What about after CEPC is completed? How can Pakistan provide more qualified industrial workers?

 

[Kingdom come]

Yes. I seems far too exaggerated.

Exaggerated.
605% jobs should be for Pakistani nationals otherwise what is the point of Chinese investment if we create many smaller China towns in pakistan.

And that is why I said "if true."
Usually I never use Indian media as a source

Whatever the number is - i want a condition of CPEC projects to be that for any foreign workers, 2 Pakistani workers must be trained on the same role.

In the first few years of the collapse of the Soviet Union, there were also many fake news that 20 million Chinese would immigrate to Siberia and annex the Siberian region of Russia. Political parties within Russia also used this fake news to incite sentiment to get votes. In the past 30 years, there are only a few Chinese in Siberia doing business. They also have no intention to immigrate to Russia.

As far as this fake news is concerned, it is no different from the fake news in the past. The time and place are different, the purpose of inciting emotions in the target country is the same

you are wrong already there were almost 60 K Chinese working and living in Pakistan as of 2018 up from 20K in 2013 and the number has only increased since then.
i dont understand why Chinese hired people from china for even basic positions i have seen, now pls don't say that Pakistan doesn't have that skilled manpower as Pakistan has one of the biggest population of skilled people in the world.

My cozen is in CPEC project, Chinese are only upper level. I mean engineers and top level officers are Chinese, all others are Pakistanis.

Yes and, in many cases, they subcontract substantial work to some local contractor. So local employment is automatically generated. I have been involved in some such projects.

The wages of workers working abroad are twice that of normal workers, and it is difficult to recruit people. Chinese enterprises often as far as possible to use local workers to save costs.

There would be around five million Chinese nationals working in Pakistan by 2025, The News has reported.

To meet the health needs of these Chinese nationals, a collaboration between the Pakistani and Chinese medical universities, research institutes and biotechnological firms under the China Pakistan Health Corridor (CPHC) is being enhanced, a senior Pakistani public health expert said on Tuesday.

Vice Chancellor Health Services Academy (HSA) Prof Dr Shahzad Ali Khan told The News: "In order to meet the health needs of millions of Chinese nationals working in Pakistan, Afghanistan and Central Asian States, we need to have specialised health facilities, based on both modern and traditional treatment systems.

"This can only be achieved by enhancing collaboration between Pakistani and Chinese health institutions under the China Pakistan Health Corridor."

He said talks were in advanced stages to sign multiple, joint collaborative agreements with different Chinese academic, research institutes and biotechnological firms and added that during the 11th Annual Public Health Conference in Islamabad on September 23-24, 2021, several Memorandums of Understanding (MoU) would be signed between Pakistan and Chinese institutions.

"We wish to train Pakistani experts in modern medical technologies as well as traditional Chinese medicines, which is a treatment of choice by millions of people in China. These experts would not only fulfill the medical needs of visiting Chinese nationals but also of the Pakistani people, who believe in alternate medicine," Prof Shahzad Ali Khan said.

In the first step, Chairman China Pakistan Health Corridor Dr Lee, also the VC, HSA, will sign an MoU for the HSA's joining into the China Pakistan Health Corridor, he said, adding the Department of Public Health of Wuhan University will sign an MoU for multiple cooperation in the academic partnership between China and Pakistan in the field of public health.

Impossible, the first stage of large-scale infrastructure construction has ended, how can it be increased to so many Chinese.

The most important part of the second phase of CPEC is the special economic zone, where private enterprises will mainly hire Pakistanis. But now it will be postponed due to the epidemic.

In the past, Chinese companies did take a large number of Chinese workers abroad and used a lot of Chinese construction materials, etc., because this was the easiest way to ensure progress and quality. I think Chinese companies have gradually found supply chains abroad and trained some local skilled workers. Will reduce dependence on Chinese workers and materials.

Just curious, shouldn't there be Pakistanis working in majority of these roles and learn to do things themselves? 5 million is a very large number and what it's saying is that the Chinese won't do transfer of knowledge to the Pakistanis. Usually, it's 80-20 percent. 80% Pakistanis working under the 20% Chinese to learn and execute tasks. There is no other way to build the Pakistani economy if the lower classes aren't brought up to the middle class standards.

China would have not been bringing their workers here if large number of Pakistanis were skilled enough.

pakistan air will smell porky

Non-Muslims can eat pork in Pakistan!

I heard that a few Chinese people went to Pakistan with wine and pork in their luggage and needed to pay bribes to customs officials.

I also watched a Chinese vlog who bought pork in Pakistan.

We should respect the living habits of other countries. We'd better not talk about that.

Probably some Indian “reporter” heard 50 Thousand and reported it as 50 Lakh. Logically, how much money has to be invested to employ 5 million Chinese? What would 5 million Chinese be doing in Pakistan?

Yes. It seems to be error of 2 zeros on the right side.
