better be like this. These 3d videos make me really excited and after the airport is done, it is "khoda pahar nikla chooha" like New Isloo Airport
 
. . . .
Bad analogy - Shenzhen was always densely populated place right next to Hong Kong. It is not a sparsely populated desert like Gwadar.

What do you think Dubai & Abu Dhabi were like 30 years ago? Should they not have bothered?

Granted they had oil money to throw in, but Gwadar could work if integrated well into Pakistan and onward to Central Asia & China.
