Abstract
The China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) stability the nearly recent
undertaking into a heritage marked by way of respective monetary collaboration,
together with a $46 billion pastime between power yet fabric improvement into
Pakistan is considered so a distinct advantage because Pakistan's economy. As a
leader undertaking about China's One Belt One Road activity, the passageway wish
companion Kashgar within Western China together with the city about Gwadar in
Pakistan about the Arabian nation Sea, filling within as much a gate in conformity
with the Middle East, Africa, and Central Asia. The CPEC, however boosting
Pakistan's economic system and meeting China's power needs yet improvement
regarding its western area, is probable going after find electricity the local thru
monetary mix.In some case, a challenge of certain distance positively faces
similarly vast difficulties. This postulation appears at obstructions so much be able

background because of Afghanistan, contending pastimes over quick neighbors
kind of India or Iran, specifically India's doubts, yet U.S. issues respecting the
activity.

Balochistan Economy
Introduction
Over the years, Pakistan and China have successfully established very close bilateral economic
relations; as a result, they have emerged as one of the world's leading trading partners. Following
mega-developmental work as a result of the 1960s Indus River Treaty, this China-Pakistan
Economic Corridor (CPEC) is Pakistan's second-largest mega-developmental initiative, which
would definitely be extremely beneficial to the people of Pakistan in general and Balochistan in
particular (Afzal, Naseem and Anum, 2018).

This project aims to connect the port of Gwadar to Xinjiang region in China through various
communication networks- highways, airports and railways, and oil and gas pipelines as well. The
$ 46 billion estimated project CPEC is not only a part of China’s vision of “Soft Power Investment”
through proposed Silk Roads Initiatives - One Belt One Road (OBOR) of 21st century but an
extension of the existing Silk Route (Karakoram Highway) as a biggest overseas investment,
termed as the “Strategic Game Changer” of the region in economic perspectives (Khalid, 2015).
This multi-purpose project would certainly have greater economic and strategic impacts on
Pakistan not only in making it a stronger and prosperous country but additionally would shape
Pakistan’s economic directions for the future by connecting the existing economic hubs, urban
landscapes and assessing certain new resources and sites for developments. From a socio-
economic perspective, this project aims to ease not only their peoples’ contacts but to encourage
and facilitate cultural exchanges for inter-civilization communication and coordination of
diplomatic strategies to gain mutual benefits (Review, 2016).
Equally important in the segments of this developmental project, is the province of Balochistan
particularly in reference to Gawar’s Port as foci of the project, because Gwadar’s port will be
directly connected to Xinjiang province through a series of networks. Being a focus of the project,
momentous developmental activities have been in progress over a couple of years in the coastal
belt of Balochistan (Chen and Zheng, 2019). Once this port of Gwadar becomes fully operational,
much is expected that it would be a game changer in all aspects not only for the province of
Balochistan but for the whole country as well. Being the shortest route between China and Central
Asia, this port will also facilitate trade for the entire region (Hassan, 2018).
In addition to CPEC's positive economic results, concerns and problems are arising from different
segments of society and need to be tackled rationally in general and in Balochistan Province in
particular (Toor, 2017). Most segments of society have different perceptions of the aims of the
initiative. There are so many things on which misunderstandings have been created, the important
ones being the shift in trade routes, identity crisis and some other reservations (Zhai et al., 2017).
Given the viewpoints of society, it is important to resolve these concerns beforehand in order to
promote a positive image of China's Economic Corridor in Pakistan. Therefore, this study will
examine CPEC's possible effect on Balochistan and discuss potential outcomes, incentives and
challenges (Hassan, Janjua and Asif, 2018).
The project documents reflect that the project on execution will not only strengthen the economy
of the country but would drive it in radical direction. But the ground realities are contradictory to
the project objectives as the concerned authorities have brought many changes in the project’s
execution like change in communication links, such as road, railway tracks and establishment of
industrial zones of which many were planned to be in the province of Balochistan, without taking
into confidence the stake-holders and beneficiaries (public) of the Province (Farooqui and Aftab,
2018). Up till now, clarification over the issues like change in corridor routes for the satisfaction
of the public has not been made by the project’s authorities, which has developed not only
misconceptions/doubts but resentment in different segments of the society- politician and public

of Balochistan on the opportunities and challenges attached to CPEC has been put into question
(Meraj, 2016).
The major objective of this research deals with CPEC relevancy to Balochistan. The emphasis of
this research will be on evaluation of the overall developmental activities associated with
Balochistan through CPEC. Moreover, the research also aims to highlight the possible
opportunities and challenges of CPEC with special reference to Balochistan. To accomplish the
above mentioned objectives, three important questions will be addressed in this research such as
i. What is the relevance of CPEC to Balochistan?
ii. What are the possible opportunities to Balochistan through CPEC?
iii. What are societal reservations and challenges of CPEC with special reference to Balochistan?
Literature Review
Balochistan the province of Pakistan is one of the biggest regions by area and little ones in terms
of population. As in Pakistan, financial standings are on the basis of population criteria, so, this
region-Balochistan gets the minimum as a consequence of its little population in comparison to
the other regions of the country. Although, this region is rich in unexplored assets but the under
population and incompetent carelessness of specialists in addition to tribal tormented structure
have failed to bring the utilization of these assets to the most extreme (Yousaf, 2012).
Figure 01: Current seaway and roadway route
The disappointment of the governments to upgrade the limits of the population and its
organizations, has added additional burden to a work in progress of the area. It has been highlighted
by PILDAT in one of working paper that Balochistan's proficiency rate remains at 51.5% and
requires genuine consideration(Abbas et al., 2019). The low rate of yearly development of the
province has been associated additionally with a very low rate of urbanization and a high rate of
https://doi.org/10.37187/gjoes.1219.0104.03
N. Khalil, B. Khan, Aurangzaib 324
WWW.GOES.ORG
unemployment of about 20% (PILDAT, 2012). On the basis of available data, the province of
Balochistan has had unsteady development execution over the previous decades and a very low
GDP, found further reduced in contrast to other regions of the country (Butt and Rehman, 2010).
The Proprietor of CPEC, being an economic world’s power have drew the attention of the
interested groups who considered their interest at stake as a consequence of this project, have
driven Balochistan into a militancy driven territory, consequently, created potential dangers for a
common person to take advantages from this project. The whole province is at interface between
the port of Gwadar and the Chinese city of Kashgar (Abid and Ashfaq, 2015). The different clans
of Balochs consider the project CPEC as an extended pre-treachery approach to the population of
Balochistan in general and hardship to the nearby Balochs in particular. Consequently, many
separatists groups assaulted on gas-pipelines, trains, and Chinese architects in order to wide spread
the dread to harm the venture achievements with a main goal to keep Balochs away and denied of
the chances from One Belt One Road (OBOR). In the words of Muhammad Ali Talpur, “CPEC
venture is just for the China, and he added and clarified that for the Balochs lives it would crush
them for the sake of advancement china (Ramay, 2016).
Figure 02: New Seaway and roadway route
On the other hand some patriot pioneers of Balochistan territory firmly restricting CPEC project
contradictory to people cause of the area, and requested that the choice may be given to the people
of Balochistan for eventual fate of Balochistan under the propitious of UN (Ranjan, 2015). These
rap-clarions required in the capturing and killings of the Chinese Expertise’s tankers, carrying fuel
to Chinese organization taking a short at the mining venture, and also attempt to focus on the
administration of a Chinese state organization(Arif, Ilyas and Hameed, 2013).

This chapter will include description of qualitative research approach, justification of research
method, research design which applied to sample and analyse data, and different methodological
approaches implemented to carry out this study. Explanation of ethical consideration, which have
used during conducting research as well as limitations of the study, will also be elaborated.
Qualitative research speaks to the approach utilized in this thesis. Initially, it builds up the
establishment for the theme by portraying the recorded viewpoint of China-Pakistan relations,
including these countries' monetary ties, to distinguish the conditions that prompted the
commencement of the present task (Khawaja, Saeed and Urooj, 2018). This book wish encompass
announcement over characteristic research approach, justification concerning lookup method,
research graph which utilized in conformity with sample or analyse data, and unique
methodological tactics carried out after elevate oversea this study.
The CPEC so a background regarding nation evident perspectives has numerous combination
about benefits then accomplishment worth, namely the existing document is tending to the hard
factors regarding score regarding Pakistan. The current test execute be marked as much 'Contextual
investigation'. The facts sources are generally contained the reliable media offices, administration
archives, then the scholarly literature as have featured the geographic magnitude yet the vital
estimation regarding CPEC. At the cease regarding the day, the big predominance on the elements
utilized namely the records sources are description or subjective between makeup (Han and Yi,
2018; Khawaja, Saeed and Urooj, 2018).
Be as as much that may, the real help of a measured path is moreover embraced who concentrating
the occasion about Pakistan. The day skyline over the gathered data is unconscious within nature.
In particular, the data dated again in accordance with the year 2005 fore are audited and considered
namely the manageable sub-set for the present archive. Regarding lookup procedure, the
longitudinal age region chose because the investigation. The methodological sketch is exploratory,
because of where it's price with the paltry in accordance with build the expertise (Malhotra, then
Birks, 2007)and discovery influencing factors for CPEC in the standpoint about Pakistan as much
a nation.
The records investigation of an evaluated course at advance separated the gathered information in
normal classifications and last similarly lowered after the worry measurements, yet into the last
stage, it was once translated within the originative produce in accordance with assist the proposed
contentions yet talking in relation to the pursuits regarding the current examination. As it were,
the theoretical information with the aid of Robson was once obtained the place the creators of the
present archive embraced the role regarding social researchers
Research Design
Research oriented experts explain that there is no specific method to any particular research
activity, but the important thing is to reach a consensus on an approach that can facilitate the
researchers to address their research questions (Garson & Horowitz, 2017). The proposed research
seeks to analyze China-Pakistan Economic Corridor and its impacts on the province of
Balochistan. It is therefore, important to adopt research techniques that are convenient for the

analysis of issues in this research. As this proposed research is in fact interdisciplinary, so it would
engage issues that connect with certain factors of economy, society and politics so it is equally
important to employ a method that can provide access to the fullest range of information (Abid
and Ashfaq, 2015).
Keeping in view the above mentioned reasons, the proposed study would employ qualitative
interviews, as are important in a sense that through this procedure diverse and multiple informative
data can be collected in a shortest time. Moreover, finding based on qualitative method are likely
to be authentic simply because they are grounded in different way of analyzing realities (Brewer
and Hunter, 2016). In addition, qualitative interviews are efficient in adding consistency, breadth
and depth to the issues of analysis (Denzin & Lincoln, 2019; Meadows, 2018).

While investigating diverse mechanical divisions, which execute assimilate to the economy, some
cannot sideline the excavation segment. As a result regarding CPEC Pakistan mining, the place
would thrive. It would provide outside according to attire beneath toward the joblessness within

because of Planning Development and Reforms, Ahsan Iqbal stated: "The advent regarding 10,000

travel enterprise yet it intention earlier than lengthy cultivate underneath CPEC (iqbal 2016).
Conclusion
All things considered, the United States, mindful concerning the external solution repercussions
regarding the CPEC venture, sees the communication as much forlorn long draw dangers. Along
this lines, Chinaman advancement regarding Gwadar foundation may additionally confront the
U.S. government's obstruction namely operational government on the port gives have an impact

Consequently, such turns of a genuine check because Pakistan not completely after find these
worry based totally oppressor gatherings then their basis yet into addition after find theirs
supporters or facilitators the nation over. To that end, ignoble than elevating a Special Security
Division fully because the insurance about the Chink laborers or the passageway, the Pakistan
military struck recreation Zarb-e-Azb between June 2014, in imitation of obvious oversea the

we accomplish our quit goal regarding a fear free Pakistan," communicates it commitment.
This exercise namely concerning now has substantially debilitated these gatherings, along a
beneficiant dunk of the volume over concern based oppressor assaults within Pakistan. As per
media reports, the country saw around a 65 percentage reduce within the extent regarding
psychological oppressor assaults close to 12 months since its launch. The Pakistan Army has
correctly wrecked worry mongers' asylums within the western or northwestern outskirts districts
or has devitalized the operational control regarding whole regional or remote psychological

fecund in the disavowal over room in conformity with the psychological militants whoever were
making use of Pakistan's dirt in imitation of plan yet accomplish psychological militant assaults
across atop Pakistan.
The duties virtue US$46 billion provide an exceptional gamble according to Pakistan after tackle
a section concerning the most important obstacles to its financial development, because of
example, the vigor emergency, poor correspondence framework, and peaked faraway venture.
CPEC's foreseen pecuniary enchancment would elevate concord and protection in accordance with
the state so all is stated into taken and explicitly after the fretful then into turn over canton of
Balochistan with the aid of connecting including formative years into enterprise exercises, working
the place whole the more monetarily sensible or maintainable. The project is relied on after
construct employment openings, limit destitution via main economic encourage concerning
immature regions, and enhance the monetary voice regarding the state by way of multiplied
carrying on on instruction, wellbeing, and lousy essential administrations.

different intestinal or chief difficulties. The accomplishment concerning the undertaking specially
relies regarding local geopolitical issues, specially India's situation regarding the task,
Afghanistan's shakiness yet its overflow to Pakistan, then the have faith shortfall of half partial

In spite about the fact so the advancing provincial factors perform have an effect on the proof of
the CPEC, both Pakistan then China are resolved in accordance with accomplish the task a triumph
because concerning its enormous benefits because the location every into entire yet because each

regarding the task's capacity in conformity with attain outdoors previous China-Pakistan fringes
for territorial availability. Along it lines, via the method about consideration, Pakistan then China
duty in conformity with reasonably compile of along blanketed on-screen characters then convince
them after come to be equivalent companions as a substitute than opponents between the task. In
somebody case, atop the long haul, favorable or straightforward usage of the CPEC calamity of
pursuance together with the desires over whole the solution companions may perchance flourish
