1- dubai is not very far so most of the ppl would prefer using it cause it's already giving all even better what gawader can provide,
2- u and me both know that China's west never gonna be like chinas east (we can discuss that in other thread), so i dont know how much useful it will be as a port for china (cause u hv to transport the goods by train or road to many thousand km to gawader). And again my point stands only china would be able to use gawader , so it's not hongkong or dubai port anyway
3-as i said only china would be it's user, iran would use it's own port, other would go for dubai (so many reason).
1. Dubai is not connected to china and central asia.
2. China is strategically developing it's west, it's development will require goods to flow in and out. We can provide crucial transit service for that. Even a small portion of Chinese trade is huge.
3. Also Pakistan itself and Afghanistan and central Asia in the future.
