A memorandum of understanding (MoU) was signed between Chinese and Pakistani officials to declare Gwadar and Zhuhai (China) twin cities.

Zhuhai Vice Mayor Wang Qingl Li, Zhuhai Port Authority director general Hauang Wen Zhong, Gwadar District Council Chairman Babu Gulab and Gwadar Port Authority head Dostain Jamaldini put their signatures on the MoU at a ceremony held here on Wednesday.

Briefing the Chinese delegation on Gwadar, Mr Gulab and Mr Jamaldini said the city had a small population of 6,000 in 1903, which increased to 45,021 – according to the 1998 national census – and now stood at 85,000.

Under the Gwadar Master Plan, they said, several development projects were being executed in the city, including those of hospitals, schools, roads and a dam.

Mr Jamaldini said the Board of Revenue and the Board of Investment were working on a plan to declare Gwadar tax-free zone. Under the plan, investment in power, water and infrastructure projects to be executed within 30km radius of Gwadar deep-sea port would be exempted from tax. The facility will also apply to products manufactured in the Gwadar industrial zone.

Later, the 13-member Chinese delegation visited Gwadar free trade zone, Gwadar hospital and other projects. The Vice Chairman of the District Council, Naimatullah Hoat and GDA director general Sajjad Baloch accompanied the guests.

Gwadar has some extra ordinary prospects to become a huge money spiner for the economy of Pakistan !

Gwadar port should be completed as early as possible so that the people of Baluchistan can benefit from this.Also the route of Economic Corridor should not be changed to benifit political interests.We have to look at the future

Oh man you brought tears to my eyes.
There was a time when Karachi was called the Paris of Asia.
And now sister city with Detroit? That's cruel man, just cruel!
But yeah Lahore should get some good twin city considering it's the most beautiful (or 2nd? Islamabad could be first) city in Pakistan.

These lazzy a$$es keep working on things and keep eating public money, they should start delivering things or should be sent home.

With the people in charge, even if you discover mountains of gold will not change thing for Pakistanis in general.

Detroit's industry is dead. Karachi is still the industrial capital of the country.
