Lt-Gen Asim Saleem Bajwa (Retd), the special assistant on Information and Broadcasting to Prime Minister had directed to complete all CPEC projects on priority which were held up due to bureaucratic delay or methodological reasons. While addressing a validation ceremony of Business Cooperation Agreements in various fields between leading Chinese entrepreneurs and Heavy Mechanical Complex (HMC) in Taxila he shared his points about CPEC in very broad prospective; “The vision and direction of PM is very clear in continuity of each and every project and to complete them as soon as possible. COVID-19 could not creel the progress of CPEC projects”. About Pak-Chine collaboration, Asim Bajwa mentioned that we are working to connect the companies of the two countries and a new business council for this purpose is also going to be announced soon. The process of mass industrialization under the second phase of CPEC would ensure the self-reliance in various sector. The railway sector would be refurbished by up-grading the mainline (ML-1) railway line from Karachi to Peshawar.
Manpower would be totally overhauled, underpasses and overhead bridges would be built at all railway crossings, and speed of trains would significantly enhance. The latest technology and industry would now be relocated to Pakistan. A preferred Special Economic Zones (SEZs) are being established in all provinces under CPEC.
