Pakistan Imports (Purchases) from China is 30% of its total imports. Exports stand at mere 7.8%. It will fall further in coming years with their further cheap product dumping, killing every remaining local industries. You have a whopping huge deficit of 14 Billion (forex spending's per year for excess purchases than sales) with China. Various other loans at relatively very high rates including that of CPEC is additional draining of reserves to quietly lead you to bankruptcy.
This is how China loots almost every country.
Most countries they go, they take most of their work force to work in their projects & keeping all the managing posts. They are masters in stealing confidential material, technology, illegal reverse engineering & creating fakes of popular brands without giving any respect to copyrights & international laws.
Once they make their foot hold in Gwadar, they will gang up with the Arabs to attack & take over Iran to get control of Oil & also create another artificial island in the Arabian Sea. They will play this game, country after country with their continuous muscle build up & expansion.
China has long used Pakistan to fight its war by provoking it against India, by giving fake assurances of supporting Pakistan. But the fact is, China will never take the side of Pakistan, if you go to war with India.
The world is waking up to the one sided unfair trade practices & hegemonic expansionist threat, China poses to the world. If anybody analyze its relationship & border with all its neighbors & study the loan or investment it has made in other countries, you will start seeing the fox in China. Keep up your good work. Small & committed baby steps over the path of thorns is the only way out to the bed of roses.
