Meaningful images, hope the members of golden ring align their interests. Especially the countries shown in the first picture, golden ring in Asia can get real shape with Gwadar being connected to north east of China.Senate of Pakistan Secretariat is hosting a gathering of 24 countries in Gwadar, Balochistan. Conference titled "Parliamentary Leadership for Peace & Development" is being held in its full zeal.
.
Iranian railways company can have share in construction of standard railways in Pakistan. Considering the distance between China's southern railways and Gwadar, it will take a decade, if i don't say decades to complete the rail way. Indeed, its a great opportunity for anyone that takes share in the project.

He said airplanes also had to go somewhere else to get the fuel, adding it was surprising that even ordinary vehicles at Gwadar were facing difficulties to get oil.
Upon this the secretary aviation told the meeting that soon an oil depot or terminal would be set up in Gwadar, adding several companies were taking interest in this regard.

GWADAR: Prime Minister Imran Khan will visit Gwadar later this week where he will attend the international expo in the coastal city, Chinese diplomat Lijian Zhao said on Tuesday.

Bakhtyar said the government attaches top priority to the development of Gwadar.
“Groundbreaking of a number of projects including Gwadar power plant, New International Airport, vocational institute and hospital would be done in the coming few weeks,” the minister was quoted as saying in an official statement. “Similarly, Gwadar master plan would be finalised in the coming six weeks.”
