A bit small don't you think? I mean for handling cargo for 1.4 billion people??? That's like 1/5 of the world's population.One of the india's biggest port

Not impressed. Don't forgot Pakistan is puny compared to India which is nearly 7 times more populous. Just one of your state like Utter Pradesh has same population as Pakistan.This port itself more than 4 times bigger than Karachi port.India also have 12 major ports in more than 7500 kms of coastline.

The truncated Uttar Pradesh or the earlier one which included Uttarakhand?Not impressed. Don't forgot Pakistan is puny compared to India which is nearly 7 times more populous. Just one of your state like Utter Pradesh has same population as Pakistan.
The port has the capacity to handle 3.1m TEUs a year and have a storage yard to accommodate 550,000 TEUs a year, sources said. And this is just the expanded deep sea port.
Mundra new terminal is 1.3 m TEU's.

Mundra Port crossed 100 MMT mark by handling 101.12 MMT cargo in FY14.This figure is 4 year old.
Now you can compare with Karachi !
so i have was thinking that the government of pakistan should turn gawadar into a liberal city.
what do i mean by this?:
1.have a defined boundary for gawadar
2.have its own laws
- complete freedom of speech
- alcohol is legal
- gambling is legal
-complete freedom of religion
- have its own special police force
- completely independent of balochistan
3. pakistanis from rest of pakistan would have to get special permission to work and live there.
4. the whole citys prices of goods and wages should be completely different from pakistan
- pick any european country ( follow its wages and prices for goods)
- if a bottle of pepsi costs a dollar then in gawadar it should be 100 rupees
- if minimum wage is 8 dollars an hour then in gawadar we should make it 800 rupees an hr
- and so on.
basically gawadar will become the hong kong of of pakistan.
what do you guys think?
COPHC plans to eventually expand the port's capacity to up to 400 million tons of cargo per year. Long terms plans for Gwadar Port require a total of 100 berths to be developed. It will be much bigger(4 times) than Mundra port.
