One thing I was discussing with a second hand car importer.
According to him, the cars he buys in Japan are first sent to Dubai, offloaded there and then sent to Pakistan. This takes a couple of weeks. If Gwadar is made and publicized, then the cars will not need to be offloaded at Dubai instead they will directly come to Pakistan from Japan...although the security issue in Balochistan makes the further transportation a problem.
Of course Gawadar is important for our economy as your example illustrates. We need this port to work well, but for us only, as it will never be the crossroads of world trade as is being claimed by some.
