China will receive 91pc revenues from Gwadar port for 40 years

[HariPrasad]

Seems like you are so obsessed with Pakistan that you watch more Pakistani tv than Pakistanis. You might as well come over

Ya I like to watch whining .

9%. Are you kidding me? Is this Pakistan share on gwadar port. Game changer or game finisher? Is this a deal? Lol

 

[BATMAN]

Previously Musharraf govt. made contract with Singapore port authority, which was not liked by PTI so it was canceled by Asif Ali Zardari and Gawadar project was abandoned.
Now same PTI morons are objecting again. These people should be fined for every damage Pakistan have and will face due to its violent protests during the progressive rule of Pervez Musharraf.

OK... let's say no CPEC... would pakistan have built gwadar with the largest airport in the country, a high capacity port, a desalination plant, a power plant, a newly planned economic zones, hospitals, and other infrastructure within a 5 year span? - I would say improbable since nothing was done in over 60 years.

Now senario 2: country X comes along says we will do all of the above... with our money and build it on the same planning as one of the world's most successful economic zones and after 40 years hand you the keys to the "new Dubai" ... and in the interim give you 9% of the profits.... Would you say yes.?

It doesn't take a genius to figure that one out.. Even our dumb dumb politicians saw the benefits.

Excellent deal, Both countries will benefit massively , especially Pakistan. Good times ahead.

Indian members response on this post is ridiculous. I have always noticed a sense of insecurity in them perhaps lack of confidence. On one hand they try to prove Pakistan as a war torn terrorist state and on the other hand they try to show they are really concerned about Pakistan. They just cant see/ accept any thing good happening in Pakistan, esp in relation to China. I think it will not only boost economic activity in one of the poorest province of Pakistan but also bring China Pakistan closer than ever before.

Perhaps its not $90 billion. Perhaps it's only $90 million. That's still $90 million more than what Gwadar is generating right now, and the thousands of jobs the people of Balochistan will get is the main benefit. Jobs for the Baloch will bring prosperity to the region and wipe out the last reason for the dwindling insurgency. Win-win for Pakistan at every corner of this project.

Completely agree.

You can't build a road without Chinese assistance in 2017 and you believe that you exploded bomb without Chinese help in 1998. By the way I heard on Pakistan TV discussion that one small tunnel work is under construction for decades. Is it complete NOW?

Off topic!!

Nice thread.

Why is this a big deal. BOT usually involves such deals. In India NHAI, gave roads on BOT basis sometimes for 30 years, and high toll rates like Rs 100-200. This is after we pay, tens of thousands in road taxes.

Here Builder is not operator!

First it was Singapore company and Now a Chinese company.

It is a management contract not BOT and whoever has negotiated that contract is a fool or corrupt on Pakistani side.

What do you care?

Finally some sane voice.

The 91% profit China makes will be re-invested in the Pakistani economy & CPEC. The 91% share China has is to ensure the profit of CPEC is not squandered by corrupt Pakistani politicians and officials.

It's okay to contradict. If someone do not agree with a specific idea, it shouldn't be ridiculed.
Now that, my comment carries no weight as I'm not an economist. Only my pov.

That is true.. Plus there are other residual positive impacts as economies grow around the chinese gwadar activities. ... it isn't like the Chinese will be operating in Gwadar in a vacuum... other industries will grow around it which will have a compounding effect.

 

[Sanchez]

Who can prove that China gets 91% profits from Gwadar port？

 

[Reichsmarschall]

That is what taught to you. Truth is that We Indians are peace loving ,minding our bussiness type and jolly fellow. We have not invaded neighbours territory in past 5000 years .

and Hitler was human right activist

 

[xyxmt]

Who is laughing now...Chinese ofcourse!

Read the OP.

 

[Sharky]

Their country. Their logic. Why do we care if they wanna sell out. We have enough problems back in India that happen due to bad planning as well. We need to tackle that rather.
