Pakistan approves Gwadar port transfer to China

[Sasquatch]

Chinese already got an alternative to Malacca straits.

Nope just diversifying the use of it as others would include the Arctic, Gwadar, and Central Asia .

Indian ocean is alien for them.

Not really China has been sending PLAN ships for training in the Indian Ocean, Arabian Sea, and the Horn of Africa with 2-3 ships yearly.

our navy is sitting at the mouth of Malacca straits, the main trading lane of China.

The IN sitting at the mouth of the Malacca does not mean much as it neither has the political will or the capability to fully close it now, shutting international water route did not go well the Suez crises and Iran's current plan of blocking Hormuz, not to mention the strait is route for other countries trade and Oil such as ASEAN, Japan and Korea. Only the USN and the USA can get anyway with something like this.

Now Maldives is totally different ball game for us they are anti india they want china to takeover their airport and we will see chinese navy in maldives why you think china is in hurry to develop its navy on war footing ,Myanmar did these same think in 2000 but they went back,Bangladesh depend about government some time they are friend sometime they are enemy,they are buying their weapons from china on low interest why china give them weapon if he thinks its our ally.Sri lanka already in past gave their support to pakistan navy i dont know you remember it,see the chinese involvement in srilanka.

During cold war both US and USSR had eyes on Maldives Gan Airbase, but Maldives declined such offer, Myanmar is sliping towards west, Bangladesh economically dependent on India while Sri Lanka is playing safe. Only country that could help China will be Pakistan in Arabian sea, not in Indian ocean or Bay of Bengal.




But China is indeed feeling the pressure from Japan, South Korea, India, Australia and SCS countries. America just decided to put majority of her navy in Pacific

Japan is no more war world japan its weak country its economy is suffering because of china,Southkorea knows who control North korea so it will never go against china,Australia economy depends on china so no antichina.America is playing these games from behind the veil but its too late to stop china .

We are locked in a Nuclear triangle, i kinda feel more safe.

Dangerous then Bermuda triangle

All this India vs China is just plain BS - but only if the US is out of the equation - once US is in the equation, all bets are off - It may be that Indians are not crazy to war on behalf of US and West, but they may find themselves in a situation where they will have been maneuvered into such an eventuality

 

[Mitro]

If you remember in cold war era and russia occupation of AF they wanted india to engage pakistan directly but india refuse you know why because we listen to call but we do what we want to do.

Once completed,Kashgar will benefit the most,it will become like a port city,most westbound goods have to go through there.Kashgar might become Hongkong or Shanghai in the west.

Kashgar

man what a beautiful landscape this city has got it's quiet similar to the rocky mountains

Confrontation with china is not in our benefit we should play in the hand of western country we have very ancient relation with chinese people,china is growing and we should grow with it in peace and prosperity .

China don't have interest to confront India neither, we will end up to hurt ourself while Western countries will just laugh. Same for India-Pakistan. The best is all three of us united to rebuild new silk road link South Asia, China, Middlle East and central Asia and co-share the prosperity...war will only put us back to stone age.

Only problem is India, they are willing to join China and Pakistan to link up C.Asia, but remain reluctant, even though Pakistan is softening its stance and allowing them to seek their business interests in that region. We ALL have tormented history attached to these Anglo Saxons regardless of what flag they might carry. "Future is the reflection of History" as the cliche' goes, we would be retarded to trust them again while we fight each other, or fight on their behalf.

Imagine SCO becoming a reality, we will become the most prosperous, the most powerful region on earth one more time. Then these Anglo Saxons would, be forced to deal with us on equal terms and none of our states will remain under Neocolonialism.

funny to see some Indian posters asking in case of a war breaking out between India and Pakistan and India takes Chinas heavily invested assets in Pakistan and cuts off our oil supply,what will China do?is it too simple a question.what if your artery was cut,and your blood was stopped to flow into your heart to make you live,what would you do?

 

[Fracker]

I though plan was to connect silk road to Motorway and then something like this

Also the map in Chinese also looks incorrect, because it is passing through swat region, which will increase the cost of constructing the roads...

Karakoram HighWay to be connected with motorway

 

[Mitro]

Thats what i am trying to say to my country men that we cannot engage pakistan without involving china so it is in the interest of all get together and workout for peace and make all of our economy interdependent with each other and prosper together.

It can't achieve it without completing lowari tunnel.

Indians didn't initiate such comments.

What? Now from where lowari tunnel came? It's Gilgit Abotababad, and connecting to M1.

EDit: Lowari Tunnel is connecting Dir with Chitral... And In future prospect Chitral may be connected to Afghanistan. But at the moment it is serving only Chitral. And for Afghanistan legal road is Khyber Pass from Peshawar.

Some Pakistan guy mentioned Lowari tunnel supposed to connect Pakistan to Central Asia through Wakhan Corridor.
