All is fair in love and war, they say.
India has forewarned China many times..that the area is disputed, and not to invest there.
And Chinese seem to agree.
"China cannot afford to invest billions of dollars on a road that passes through a disputed territory claimed both by India and Pakistan," the official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said.

Okay ...SO what we do?? With the help of some friends in Beijing...we turn it into an non-disputed terriortry...
Why cant you digest the fact that GB is defacto part of Pakistan (unless its residents come up holding Indian passports) and we can get away with doing what we want....
Ohh...and now building with the Japanese money as well
By the way the statement in full is presented by a Pakistani official..not a Chinese one...
A third top government official from Gilgit-Baltistan said the move was in response to concerns raised by Beijing about the China Pakistan Economic Corridor, the $46 billion infrastructure plan set to link China's western city of Kashgar to the Pakistani port of Gwadar on the Arabian Sea.
"China cannot afford to invest billions of dollars on a road that passes through a disputed territory claimed both by India and Pakistan," the official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said.
Further
Islamabad has historically insisted the parts of Kashmir it controls are semi-autonomous and has not formally integrated them into the country, in line with its position that a referendum should be carried out across the whole of the region.
So the semi autonomy is accorded by Islamabad, and we can choose to take it back...better yet...not forgetting the referendum clause..we can do it legally..run a UN mandated refrendum and annex it by the will of people...
What can India do?
well take some pop-corn and enjoy the party...we will definitely invite you to the inauguration of new assembly hall for the fifth province of Pakistan...
JAPAN INFRASTRUCTURE DEAL TO UNLOCK FURTHER OPPORTUNITIES IN INDIA

India Briefing
Op-Ed Commentary: Samuel Wrest
Over the weekend, Narendra Modi made his first major state visit to Japan’s former imperial city of Kyoto for summit talks with Prime Minister Shinzo Abe. The subject of the two leaders’ meeting was multifarious and included discussion on the strengthening of security ties, nuclear energy cooperation and the easing of restrictions on exports. Perhaps most important, however, was Tokyo’s pledge to help directly fund projects to improve India’s infrastructure.
Over the next five years, Japan has promised it will invest approximately US$35 billion into several next-generation infrastructure projects in India, including public transportation and smart cities. India’s poor infrastructure is commonly identified as a factor hindering greater foreign direct investment (FDI). This has allowed other Asian countries with existing infrastructure, such as Singapore and Malaysia, to become the preferred destinations for certain types of FDI.
Japan’s funding will certainly go some way towards ending this disadvantage, and will help steer India in the right direction to maximize its vast investment potential.

You still do not get the point. China may invest every where in India and India welcomes it. But China does not invest in Kashmir.
Offcourse because the Indian Occupied Kashmir..is mutually disputed between China and India..
While Pakistan has settled the bordered with China...therefore...China has no beef in Pakistani Kashmir...
