Balochis to become Rich Sheikhs - CPEC Mineral-rich Balochistan to open up to China ‘Silk Road’ firm

Unrealistic, no country became rich on the back of minerals. See african countries with many times more mineral resources then Pakistan.

You think that's all they are doing? Asking people to mine and sell their minerals? Its the industry, the jobs (from miner to engineering, new cities that will be formed, real estate boom due to this work, more doctors, schools, universities, airports, shopping, businesses, police, etc), that will be needed across Baluchistan. which is the largest in size. So really, you are building about 40% of the Pakistan as new development. Imagine creating overall 30 million jobs at all level (from a daily worker to Doctors, Engineers, Businessmen, etc).

Pakistan within the next 15 years, will have achieved a look and feel of something better than Dubai in terms of Baluchistan. On the other side, Punjab is already expanded her growth to build a multi-industrial complex and if Karachi can be straightened out and redeveloped and managed properly, Pakistan will soon be around the top 15th economy on the globe. Over 25-30 years, it would be within the top 12 (around or below Australia). In the next 10 years or so, Pakistan will produce a new generation of multi-millionaires who will go back and reinvest their money in new ideas and the growth will continue. In the Islamic world, Turkey and Pakistan will grow the mot, than followed by the KSA if you minus KSA's oil based growth (Pakistan more than Turkey over the long run as she has a lot more people). There is no doubt about it. So please try to understand the entire context of a topic before you just spew out negativity and hate. Some quality in posts from people from India would be nice.

Most of the poorest African nations are rich in minerals like gold , diamond , coal and fuel.

Try Canada, Australia, New Zealand etc
They are western Europeans, they would have been developed anyway. Minerals helped them tiny bit along the way. Pakistanis shouldn't kid themselves. Few mineral mines will not bring revenues to even run district let alone change Balochistanis in to sheikh.

You are entitled to your opinion as we are to ours... i choose to take this development with the glass half full point of view...

Pakistan will do what pakistan does... inshallah at least we arent slaves to an extremist hate filled hindutva majority like the poor muslims down south.

Gulf Arab region. It's how you developed the resource counts. Do you think the Arabs discovered that oil?
Yes, the Arabs of the Gulf region used to use that oil for oil lamps for centuries..

South Africa became rich with Diamonds..and yes Gold and copper to some extent can make you rich if extracted in big quantities and processed before sale..

Typical of any CPEC thread is to see jealous indians trying their best to ruin the relationship of Pakistan and China by posting stupid claims.
