Saudi Arabia ‘joining CPEC to make Gwadar an oil city’

Yeh same here. They kind of blend into the gangsta Somali's. But still they don't act arrogant. And I agree Lebanese and Syrians are cool. I like Algerians/Tunisians too. Although I have not met enough to make final conclusions.

But the petro-Arabs. No, no!

I have met Algerians here they speak Arabic kinda funny with French accent and verbs tho their country is oil rich its some what poorer than the Gulf and in general the people dont play like moulvis like the Gulf Arabs do.Tunisians are somewhat more secular tho
 
.
Addendum: Without doubt the best Muslims I have ever met are Turks. They are cool with Pakistan. Just mention the 'P' and you will get positive response. This is across the board. Secular, liberals, religious Turks. All are cool with Pakistani's.

I legit can say the same the Turks in general do like Pakistan but they feel kinda bad for us and they joke 'that we are wayy to religious"

Even the Uzbeks tho they are dumb as a brick do like Pakistanis here

Some of the Mainlander Chinese do know Pakistan here for the most part they are ok they dont know us too much but dont hate us, Tho I met once a Han from Xinjiang and when He asked where I was from I said Pakistan and we had a great convo about Pak

I myself have some turk teachers from my university and some students studying in different departments then myself. They are very friendly and loving specially towards Pakistani nation.. They love Pakistan and so.does Pakistanis too love Turkey.

They won't.
ha ever been to central asia? I have visited 5 states they are dying for linkages with pakistan and its territory and sea lanes to open. They also want pakistan to open land routes to india as well this is what they always press upon whenever they meet chinese or pakistani officials.

Reports in media suggest Saudia Arabia is going to turn Gawadar into an oil city.

you mean for this oil ?:angel:

Oil transport overland needs pipelines. FYI

the naive eternal quest for Pakistani well wishers for some ( domestic and foreign )master to come save us and develop us.

You may have that eternal quest but we dont. Secondly the oil city would include oil refinery and in the long term CPEC plan a pipeline is purposed from Gwader to China. Thats what they are talking about.

pipelines are expensive. something like that would be around $10Bn i think

Yeah so what?? Do you think Saudi dont have that amount of money?? The pipeline will be built as it will significantly reduce cost of transportation for China, with Chinese guarantee any one would be able to invest in it.

I don't know about that . I am pretty sure it cannot be dont thru the Gilgit route due to the ( high)elevation change. So if there is a pipeline it would have to go thru Afghanistan.
All this is extremely expensive. and even once you install a pipeline transport oil thru it isn't free. I think China has many sources oil on its western border from the Turkic countries and Russia itself. in fact its those countries who are looking for a way to export oil as well.

This will all become clear once a feasibility study is done.

As I thought Asad Umar and IK are going to come back with no firm offer of help from KSA/GCC. A few photo ops and make the simple suckers back home happy. That about sums it.

Or Iran.
They already have iran since past 25 years. Land route and sea lanes go thru pakistan and pakistani waters. The arabian sea. Persian gulf also ends where pakistani controlled waters start. They need pakistan even if they have iran. Pakistan still is the major player.

No one can change what God Almighty decided for pakistan as destiney.
