Pakistan’s Senate Deputy Chairman Syed Ali Khan Nasar reaffirmed the country’s commitment to the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC), calling it crucial for national and Balochistan development.

Speaking at the “CPEC in My Eyes” event, Nasar noted that travel from Quetta to Gwadar now takes 12 hours instead of 34, reflecting CPEC’s impact on ordinary citizens. He stressed involving local communities in agriculture, education, and trade to strengthen Pakistan-China cooperation, Xinhua reported.

Chinese Ambassador Jiang Zaidong highlighted CPEC’s role in consolidating Pakistan’s development and pledged to jointly upgrade the corridor for a shared future.
