PM vows industrialisation as next step under CPEC

The only thing industrial about this government is the amount of vows and promises she has made.
 
Not according to TLP. Eat grass and go after French blasphemers ...

Fitna in Muslim world is as normal as sun rises and sets as we always tolerate it so that normality prevails. The day someone took the sword and get rid of these human right flag bearers and did something about it our destiny will change.
Pakistan is being constantly being kept in the state of fluidity and we are going to pillar to post every day. Elections are over, we have got a parliament and elected members after that all activities by law should be banned till a month before the next election.
All politics should be done through the parliament and PDM and TLP should only be allowed to do the march for a day and all Dharan's drama's should be banned. Which other country allows these Dharan's no wonder they are not in the IMF programs while we are. All policing costs should be billed to the parties who want to go on the march lets see how many want to bring about rallies next time.
Industrialization needs peace and stability in the country so someone can invest and get there due rewards.
 
What can I say? All Muslims should be joining the TLP on march to Islamabad. Once there burn down the French Blasphemers Embassy. Then raise a lashkar and march on jihad to Paris.

All Muslims need to prove their love of the prophet peace be upon him and burn the blasphemers in Islamabad.
what can we do 😭 Pakistani majority wants to create a state like Iran.
 
Allah khair karay, ye banda jiss chez ka notice laita hai uss ki ma behn hu jati hai

Pakistan and China on Friday inked the Framework Agreement on Industrial Cooperation under the China Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) following Prime Minister Imran Khan's arrival in Beijing the previous day.

The prime minister is in China to attend the opening ceremony of the Winter Olympics and meet the Chinese leadership.

State Minister and Chairman Board of Investment Mohammad Azfar Ahsan and Chairman National Development & Reform Commission (NRDC) He Lifeng signed the accord.

The objective of the Joint Working Group (JWG) on Industrial Cooperation is to attract foreign direct investment (FDI), promote industrialisation and development of economic zones, and initiate, plan, execute, and monitor projects, both in public as well as the private sector.

The engagement with China under JWG is envisaged to increase labour productivity in Pakistan, enhance industrial competitiveness, increase exports, and sustain diversification in the exports basket.

During the 8th Joint Cooperation Committee (JCC) meeting of CPEC held in 2018, both sides had signed a Memorandum of Understanding that formed the basis for future engagements between the parties under the ambit of industrial cooperation.

As CPEC entered its second phase, which primarily revolves around the development and industrialisation of Special Economic Zones (SEZs), the need for a comprehensive framework agreement became imperative.

Similar agreements have also been signed for Early Harvest CPEC Projects on energy and infrastructure.

With continuous efforts of the Board of Investment (BoI), both sides reached the consensus to elevate the existing MoU into a Framework Agreement in 2020.

After extensive stakeholder consultations and with the approval of the prime minister, BoI shared the draft framework with NDRC in November 2020, which has been formulated keeping in consideration the needs of CPEC Phase II.

The signing ceremony of the framework agreement is a significant outcome of the prime minister's visit and a top agenda from the Chinese side as a testimony to their interest in CPEC.

Hence, Pak's enemies are getting mad as they're throwing everything at their disposal to sabotage these types of deals....
 
Love this guy, middle of the speech he interrupts to make a point that we ought to be speaking Urdu so our people can understand, when the Chinese speak in their native language and Pakistanis in their native language, there is no need for english for broadcasting his speech to a Pakistani audience that speaks and understands Urdu.
 

During PM’s visit: Pakistan, China all set to sign $10-15 Billion pacts​

During PM’s visit: Pakistan, China all set to sign $10-15 bn pacts



ISLAMABAD: Pakistan and China are all set to sign different agreements worth $10-15 billion during the ongoing visit of Prime Minister Imran Khan including rollover of $4 billion deposits, fresh loan of $4 billion, and other projects.

However, both sides have so far been unable to make progress on the much-delayed multibillion-dollar project of Mainline-1 (ML-1) despite making of efforts, as the financing agreement has not yet been firmed up.

Pakistan’s federal cabinet also granted approval for signing of much-awaited industrial cooperation between the two countries under China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC). “Pakistani authorities are expecting that the ongoing visit of PM Imran Khan will pave the way for boosting bilateral relations and minimum size of cooperation will be over $10 billion,” official sources confirmed to The News on Friday.

While the parties are proactively promoting, facilitating and executing the long-term industrial development plan, China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) is a framework of regional connectivity, infrastructure development, and industrial cooperation which will not only benefit the parties but also have a positive impact in the region.

The success of the early harvest projects pertaining to energy and infrastructure has set the foundation for CPEC to enter the pragmatic phase of an enhanced level of industrial cooperation, leading to substantial investment and financing from Chinese government and Chinese private enterprises with reciprocal efforts by the Pakistani government, to provide an encouraging business environment and achieve mutual success as envisaged in the long-term plan of CPEC, signed in 2017 and the MoU on industrial cooperation under CPEC, signed in 2018; the parties hereby agree, as mentioned in the following Articles of the Framework Agreement.

Article 1: As envisaged in the long-term plan, the main objective of the framework agreement is to enhance industrial competitiveness of Pakistan through encouraging Chinese enterprises to build factories and set up business in Pakistan. The focus of the partnership is to improve skill development, enhance labour productivity and encourage joint research and development. The principle of the partnership is to respect the enterprises as responsible entities on market-oriented guidelines, and to follow the business rules and international practices.

Article 2 : The joint Working Group (WG) on Industrial Cooperation under CPEC of the parties will provide guidelines to attract high-quality FM through encouragement of export-oriented high-tech industries, promoting industrialisation, development and population of the economic zones, enhancement of service sector competitiveness, forecasting perspective demand for human resources, ensuring requisite training of workforce; and for the initiation, planning, execution and monitoring of the projects (public as well as private sector) within the ambit agreed between the two countries.


China has advantages and expertise in technology, financing, and industrial capacity, while Pakistan enjoys favourable conditions in natural resources, adequate labour manpower, quality infrastructure, access to the international markets and optimal policies for industrial development.
