Abstract

A strong economy is the backbone of a strong nation. Pakistan has experienced security challenges since the beginning that has shifted its attention to defense, which diverted its focus from economic stability. And from the standpoint of independence, Pakistan has territorial disputes with neighboring countries such as Afghanistan and India. This has made it difficult for the country to maintain strong trade relations with them and has hindered diplomatic relations with Pakistan. Programs like China Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) have provided the country with an opportunity to improve its economic conditions. The CPEC can be a game changer for Pakistan. It is a project of regional connectivity, a part of China's Belt and Road initiative (BRI) This would assist not just Pakistan but also Iran, Afghanistan, and Central Asian countries and in some way Middle Eastern states. Under this program, these countries will have improved roads, railways, air transportation, and the frequent and free exchange of goods so that they will have open borders like European countries as a result of which Pakistan will have less security issues and more economic opportunities. Pakistan's current budget (2022-23) allocates 58 percent of its budget to loan repayment and defense, the remaining 42%(News, 2022) is very less for making the country stable or sustainable. The CPEC is a long-term program that will help Pakistan achieve economic and national stability and sustainability. The CPEC model is a win scenario that will result in a linked and integrated area that shares harmony and growth.

《中巴经济走廊:加强经济和国家安全、稳定和可持续性的综合指南》
强大的经济是强大国家的支柱。巴基斯坦从一开始就经历了安全挑战,将注意力从经济稳定转移到国防上。从独立的角度来看,巴基斯坦与阿富汗和印度等邻国存在领土争端。这使得该国难以与他们保持牢固的贸易关系,并阻碍了与巴基斯坦的外交关系。中巴经济走廊(CPEC)等项目为该国提供了改善经济状况的机会。中巴经济走廊可以改变巴基斯坦的游戏规则。这是一个区域互联互通项目,是中国“一带一路”倡议的一部分。这不仅会帮助巴基斯坦,还会帮助伊朗、阿富汗、中亚国家,在某种程度上也会帮助中东国家。根据这一计划,这些国家将改善公路、铁路、航空运输,并能频繁和自由地交换货物,使它们像欧洲国家一样拥有开放的边界,从而使巴基斯坦面临的安全问题减少,并获得更多的经济机会。巴基斯坦目前的预算(2022-23)将其预算的58%用于偿还贷款和国防,剩余的42%(新闻,2022)用于维持国家稳定或可持续发展的预算非常少。中巴经济走廊是一个长期项目,将帮助巴基斯坦实现经济和国家稳定与可持续发展。中巴经济走廊模式是一个双赢的局面,将导致一个相互联系和融合的地区,共享和谐和增长。
