Western media spreading lies about CPEC: Chinese envoy

[ChineseTiger1986]

Absolutely. The West cannot be relied upon. They have their own bloc and set of interests. Since the days of colonisation their goals are crystal clear. It is about self enrichment at the expense of others.

It is up to the developing world to form the other bloc and look out for their own interests. China is the only smart nation in the developing world that has fully understood how to counter Western hegemony. China's phenomenal rise doesn't require any explanation.

That's why the dominance of 5G is so crucial right now, and China can have this perfect opportunity to break up the US hegemony in the digital world and set up its own brand new ecosystem, and also force some of western countries from EU to comply as well.

In pre-5G era, the US used to control the digital world with its super powerful IT companies from the Silicon Valley, and it is going to be a complete reset with the brand new 5G ecosystem. And the US just cannot let this happening when its dominance of the old technologies got completely supplanted, and they got completely cornered right now.

I think the US could become increasingly more suicidal after Trump got re-elected in 2020.

5G = the revolutionary new ecosystem for the digital world in the future

It is an absolute checkmate from China for the US.

As of now not only does the west host huge Pakistan diaspora [thank you providing us a decent life] but also is the largest market for Pakistani goods.

That's all because it's the only leverage they have over Pakistan. Moving from the foreign policy to our social affairs, this very hackneyed assertion is cited to vindicate their intrusion into everything that is Pakistan related. We are flatly told----They will deny us excess to their market if we dare as much as punish criminals in accordance with our laws, they will sanction us if we test a missile (India and Israel can test nukes or whatever, they have the license to do so), they will blacklist us if we don't kill an alleged terrorist. In fact it's the same formula that is flaunted before us to justify Pakistan's subservience to the UAE and KSA.

Exactly! that is what we have to change.

If only it was that simple. Yesterday it was the IAEA, today it's the FATF, who knows whats next in line. Throwing us a few favours(As some are in habit of tediously recounting those) shouldn't be mistaken for their true intentions. Of-course its us who have to work out our image problem, but let's not pretend they don't deliberately cast shadows over us.

Agreed. We ofcourse arent the obvious choice for playing favourite for the West until and unless we serve a specific purpose for them..but we have had plenty of opportunities in the past to leverage these instances where our help was needed, to create a long lasting economic engagement with the west as south korea or japan created..we have always kept the perception of our freedom alive, all the while bidding in the hands of these powers to be..anyhow..now or never type situation hai..its abt time that government brings in investment..or someone brings in investment and kickstarts our economy..putting all eggs n once basket and relying only on chinese investment will not do us any good..
