CPEC, Pakistan Politics, China Politics, East India Company, SuperpowerAbstract
China invested billions of dollars in Pakistan and made this project based on thebenefit of both countries. China tried to abandon trade through the Malacca Straitfrom South China Sea because there was too much risk of terrorism and the routewas too long. China chose South Asia because there was less competition for theirproducts, low labor wages and then China saw no other country in South Asia ascredible except Pakistan. Pakistan accepted China's offer because at that timePakistan's economic condition was very bad, because of the proxy war fought fromthe United States after the 9/11 attack. Other countries were afraid to invest inPakistan because of the rule of terrorism. Both countries faced problems beforeand after starting this project and are still facing problems but the benefitsoutweigh the problems due to which both countries are running this project tillnow. Many people are talking that CPEC can become the East India company inthe future. No one has seen the future but CPEC will never become East IndiaCompany because China wants to see itself as a super power in the future and thisproject is a ladder on their way to super power. China will never want risk its pathto becoming a superpower for a country whose economy is already in dire straits.Developed countries are against the project, because it has the potential tocompete with Dubai, Singapore and Hong Kong port in the future. If the twocountries continue to work for the development of this project with mutualcooperation, this project can become back bone in improving the economiccondition of both countries.
