Gas-based power projects: Plan to add 2,600MW to grid before summer
It was also proposed that 3,600 MW be generated by use of 600mmcfd LNG as permanent solution.

During the meeting, the premier was told that after their completion, CARE programme, Nandipur, Guddu and Quaid-e-Azam Solar Park power projects will add 28% additional power to the national grid and load shedding will reduce significantly.
The meeting was further informed that Chinese leadership had conveyed the importance of completion of power projects by 2017.

Improving relation: Switzerland looks to harness Pak potential
Thank you for the awesome collection of news and briefs and the picture. I keep saying that by the beginning of January, 2017, Pakistan will start to show its new face to the world. A modern, politically and culturally stable and a fast growing economy with opportunities for the rest of the world (granted no further terrorism derails the progress, political stability remains normal and no wars with India).
The last part, the Indian factor may be difficult to avoid as India now has Hindu extremists in the power and they know Pakistan is about to change its entire existence and it'll become a much stronger country in the next 3-4 years. So they will try to weaken Pakistan than supporting it. So a war may be coming. Let's see how Pakistani leadership plays it out.
