Gwadar is an ambitious venture and future of the Pakistan’s economy with geographical location important than Dubai and Singapore. Addressing a seminar, Ahsan Iqbal, theminister of planning, development and reform,says that the speed of development of the Gwadar Port will be increased to make it a model port. According to him, several projects have been envisaged along the Pakistan-China Economic Corridor, including energy, infrastructure, health, education and potable water. Besides the economic corridor, the port will be linked with various countries through the national and regional infrastructure. A network of motorways will be established from Peshawar to Karachi while the port will be connected to other parts of Balochistan as well as Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. On another note, Karakorum Highway will be linked with Hawelianto make a shortcut to Gwadar through Ratodero. The integrated infrastructure will definitely bring a phenomenal change in Gwadar within three years to convert the port as a commercial and tourist resort.It will connectaround three billion people of South Asia, China and Central Asian region together. Meanwhile, a Chinesecompany will present a draft of proposals to the Pakistani government for Gwadar Port to complete the process of determining preferential policies by the end of March. There is a need to complete documentation in accordance with the national and international laws to launch the project. The Gwadar Port Authority has already recommended the government to lease the port for 43 years and all the modalities will be completed by February 2015. The lease agreement will be signed in accordance with the countries laws and discussions are underway to start infrastructural projects such to build an international airport, power station and water supply plantin Gwadar by 2017. When former President Asif Ali Zardari signed the economic corridor deal with China during his tenure, it seemed the goods are ahead, but five years later, no progress has been made in the matter. Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif has recently signed $43 billion agreements with the Chinese government but nothing is visible in real sense. India and other countries in the region have embarked upon the roads of progress and there is no reason we should be kept waiting for a fortune to knock our door. It is the time for the national leadership to take decision –right or wrong – without wasting time. It is unfortunate that millions of dollars have been spent on tours and conferences without any positive result. If Gwadar is the future of the Pakistani economy, it should be developed as fast as it is possible.gwadar port gwadar port map gwadar port authority gwadar port jobs gwadar port google map gwadar port news gwadar port history gwadar port pics gwadar port progress gwadar port pakistan future gwadar port project gwadar port and china gwadar port and chabahar port gwadar port authority tenders gwadar port and its importance gwadar port and iran gwadar port and chabahar port map gwadar port analysis gwadar port and cpec gwadar port aerial view gwadar port balochistan gwadar port business gwadar port berths gwadar port beauty gwadar port bbc gwadar port benefits to pakistan gwadar port beautiful pictures gwadar port built by china gwadar port benefits to pakistan in urdu gwadar port business opportunities gwadar port china gwadar port completion date gwadar port cpec gwadar port complex gwadar port city gwadar port current status gwadar port careers gwadar port contract with china gwadar port contact gwadar port container terminal gwadar port depth gwadar port development gwadar port design gwadar port development authority gwadar port documentary in urdu gwadar port duty free gwadar port development plan gwadar port documentary gwadar port deal gwadar port district gwadar port essay gwadar port east bay expressway project gwadar port expansion gwadar port economic importance gwadar port effect on dubai gwadar port earthquake gwadar port east bay motorway gwadar port east bay expressway gwadar port express tribune gwadar port after earthquake gwadar port future gwadar port free zone gwadar port future prospects gwadar port facebook gwadar port facts gwadar port functional gwadar port facilities gwadar port failure gwadar port features gwadar port importance for pakistan gwadar port given to china gwadar port golden palm plot prices gwadar port gifted by oman gwadar port gwādar balochistan pakistan gwadar port history in urdu gwadar port housing scheme gwadar port has strategic implications for india gwadar port handover to china gwadar port pakistan history gwadar port the hindu gwadar port is situated in gwadar port images gwadar port importance pakistan gwadar port in urdu gwadar port investment gwadar port in 2020 gwadar port issue https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g1K-yr2_-VQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P-cV2uTjj3I
