If you guys can understand Urdu, or ask the Pakistanis here, they ll tell you that the above news report is about the shoddy work being done by Chinese construction companies in Pakistan. They are also saying that the local Pakistani authorities are not allowed to inspect the construction work being done by the Chinese.

Is there are a Chinese agency which keeps a tab on these Chinese companies undertaking construction projects in foreign countries? Or are they allowed to do basically whatever they want, since the Chinese are merely loaning the money for the project, and will get it back with interest regardless of these hydro projects succeeding or not.

did they mention any reason why?

did they mention any reason why?

Bro don't take the bait, if can click report on the bottom left of the post. There is no 2 way traffic in brains of hinduism Actually this unemployed indian hindu is trying to wage war against Pakistan [py ops; in his own stupid manner rofl] same way USA nerds living in their moms basement w/ wifi wage war on US liberals. Either report or ignore don't respond to them. Just imagine after Trump f***s h1b visas and other facilities there will be more of them trying to soothe their own frustrations with edited content from pak talk shows which even Pakistanis don't watch have zero credibility. This happening on youtube everyday, edited clips of Pak talk shows being used against Pakistan.

O'reoly shame on us, made in China , I have nothing to say since I don't know the detail and it's useless for me to argue further .

Don't worry, you don't have to prove anything with that video, you surely see a lot of "Made in China" junk in India , that should be enough to comfort you. And if Chinese company made bad quality and it shall be pay for it...it's not really my nor any Chinese's problem and I'm not here to defend China's bad reputation, it got what it deserves good or bad.

Made in China is so common that it is even available at Indian army canteens.

The problem is not about Made in China Sir. Chinese produce many good quality products. Nobody is denying that. The problem is with Pakistan. It has given free hand to Chinese companies without any responsibility, liability,cross check to ensure the quality and reliability of work. The panelists on video say that local Pakistanis are not even allowed to enter premises or check the quality of job being performed.

Chinese company to build new hydropower plant in Pakistan
(People's Daily Online) 16:55, March 09, 2017

China and Pakistan signed a commercial contract for the Dasu hydropower plant on March 8, marking the start of the latter’s long-delayed energy project.

As one of the most important energy projects listed in the Vision 2025 program prepared by the Water and Power Development Authority (WAPDA) in 2001, the Dasu hydropower plant will be built mainly by China’s Gezhouba Group Co. Ltd. The plant is located 350 kilometers north of Islamabad, the capital of Pakistan. Once finished, it will generate 12,000 GWh of energy per annum, shrinking the country’s electricity shortage and creating 8,000 local jobs.

According to statistics from WAPDA, the hydropower plant will be operated in accordance with the daily cycle of the nearby river. A 242-meter-high concrete gravity dam and a 74-meter-long reservoir will be built behind the dam. There will also be an underground powerhouse with 12 turbines.

Hydropower plants have always been a priority when it comes to infrastructure in Pakistan. The country spends $3.5 billion annually on imported fuel, which is necessary to keep the country’s 9000MW thermal power plants running. This expense accounts for 35 percent of the Pakistan's total imports, China Energy News reported.

In addition to the Dasu project, China has also provided funds for the construction of several other hydropower plants in Pakistan. In 2015, China’s $40 billion Silk Road Fund injected capital into China Three Gorges South Asia Investment Ltd. to develop Pakistan’s Karot hydropower project and other clean-energy projects, Xinhua reported.

brother will You check again the bold part , how come only 74 meters is it 74KM......... And if you can alsocheck how much water it can store if we look at the height of the Dam its not a Run of the river .

Great Move , Best of luck .
We need Dams and as many as we can and we only have like 10 to 15 years max........ We have to plant at least 2 Billion Trees per year for 10 years total 20 Billion trees . To safe our self from Nature's Revenge.
I am in favour of KALABAGH Dam , its the last dam (big one) we can build on our rivers , if You all look at the area site of kalabagh we can store all the water from all 5 main rivers . The best dam site . And we can build it in 5 to 7 years.
And one more Dam , the chinyout Dam , on River Chanab , Yes we will lose some great land but we will have good water storage and control on floods in river Chanab.

You are probably right that it should be 74km.

 

[Blue Marlin]

what about the bunji dam?

 

[CHACHA"G"]

We don't need any dam , we need dams with water storage capacity , for that we have few very good God Gifted sites , I will mention some and provide link .
1, Diamer-Bhasha Dam , After completion will be the biggest Dam of Pakistan . Look at how much water it can store .
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diamer-Bhasha_Dam
2,Shyok Dam , One more great Dam site , Best for water and good for electricity , just check how much water it can store , defiantly it will in top 5 Big dams of Pakistan after completion.
http://www.wapda.gov.pk/index.php/projects/hydro-power/future/shyok-dam-multipurpose-project
3, Kalabagh Dam, yes again Kalabagh dam , easy to build and will be ready in 5 to 7 years max, and store great amount of water , actually last best and great Dam site for all the rivers water include.
This dam will provide water meanly to Sindh in most needed days. Literally kill water shortage in Sindh.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kalabagh_Dam
4, Akhori Dam , controversial , need more study and work , but if its possible to build then build , does not matter we will lose money , no profit from this dam ,but this dam will store hell lot of water to. Just check out the details , PML(Q) is in very much favour of this Dam , Pervaz Ellahi project. Remember we need water , no fkin profit.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Akhori_Dam

https://www.dawn.com/news/1241037
5, Mohmand Dam , decent dam water storage , easy to build.
https://www.thenews.com.pk/print/118351-Mohmand-Dam-to-be-completed-in-2017
6 , Kurram Tangi Dam , Again decent water storage capacity , and not expensive to.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kurram_Tangi_Dam
We need more study on our river systems , If I missed any big all purpose many water storage dam please add ,
