The total money India invested in Chabahar and Sitwe ports and associated roads is a pittance when compared to Pakistan's CPEC project. Clubbing the disastrous CPEC with very cautious and judicious investment in Chabahar and Sitwe is unnecessary
Pakistan has $130bn in overseas debt. Interest payments is now over $10bn/year. Also Pakistan needs $20bn each year to fund the current account deficit. Also Pakistan to pay $10bn Principal repayment. They need $40bn. Thats why sharif is going all over the world so that he could get some money. Once they get the money, they will spend the money on imports and again comeback with begging bowl. IMF is not foolish to give them money which will never be paid back
When will people finally understand?! Have Pakistan reunite with India. Pakistan is essentially East Germany. India could also benefit from reunification. And please spare me the usual comments: Pakistanis and Indians are the same people. Have Punjab and Kashmir reunite each, include Sindh into the Union, have Balochistan be independent and have Waziristan and Kyber Pass be part of Afghanistan! East Germany went bankrupt, that is why it dissolved. Please understand the value of Reunification!
How well prepared and clear explanation. It's like you are helping me read research, news, reality or a far away place of which I could never have an idea about.
Praveen needs to be a little more self aware as do the cameramen. Watching the sticky saliva build up at the corners of his dry mouth was disgusting. Please can someone hand him a glass of water to prevent dry mouth.

Pakistan is going to become the Richest Country in the Area due to the investment of China in CPEC. There are going to be lots of jobs for Pakistan due to this large investment. China loves Pakistan and will invest about another 50-100 billions dollars in the CPEC project, after the PM visit. This is going to take Pakistan Economically over the tops. Pakistan is great!
Detailed expose of the CPEC realities!! Thanks Pravin. Chinese look at Gwadar port as strategic investment and the rest of the investment in CPEC will be written off eventually. It does not matter much as long as Pakistan is doing the Chinese bidding against India. In fact, China will unofficially be leased entire Gilgit Baltistan area in return for this write off. Let us see how it shapes up in future.

Swamy, you write superbly analytical articles, but the same can't be read over a video. Script for videos/vlogs are different, they are more direct, and simple, and the copy is crisp and short. Please change your style of writing scripts for the screen if you want to continue vlogging.
Up to 10 percent of GDP debt to China is very little. The same countries have between 5 to 10 times more debt towards IMF, Worldbanc + other international lenders.
At 20:05, the IMF asked specifically for a letter for restructuring from the creditors of Srilanka. Has it put the same condition on Pakistan? How much substance do the theories like while IK was alluding to the foreign hand of US in his ouster, it was the Chinese who weren't exactly happy with him because of his slightly tough stance on CPEC carry ?
Chinese were, I feel, aware of the risks in investing in Pakistan. Maybe the Chinese look to use Gwadar Port as a base ! Maybe they could use Gwadar for energy transportation to Xijiang .!
Why are we, Indian media, helping with there research?? f'em only make relevant reports? that could help us not them, it's for official of govt to know!!
It was heard that Pakistan is selling Gwadar port to Saudi Arabia. Could China also seek it's right over Gwadar port if Pakistan is unable to repay Chinese debt. In this scenario will Pakistan lose its Gwadar territory to China.
Unlike the USA, China has never helped any country to prosper, and why would it? An economically prosperous Pakistan doesn't bode well for China's middle kingdom dreams. A financially strong Pakistan won't be obedient to China and would deal more freely with other countries, some of whom may not be friends of China, and China understands it very well. China will keep Pakistan on ventilator, just enough support to keep the country alive but not enough for it to thrive.
Very nice presentation. I would like you do a similar one on GOI’s investments in the State of Uttar Pradesh - the State’s debt burden, who really benefited from the massive infrastructure investments in the state, whether the people of the state reaped any benefits at all, whether proper commercial evaluation was done for these investments. I think that we should introspect first before looking out at others!!
True. UP and Bihar are the inner Pakistan of our nation pulling the average of entire country development metrics down in every reading. One of the main reason south is super p1$$ed about the BJP government was having them take money from progressive south and invest in these illiterate and backward areas that don’t have skills or IQ to develop themselves no matter what help you provide them. Sometimes I wonder if we are better off to split up as one nation and become a union of independent states as countries and issue limited freedom of movement between people and capital within the country. A common military and currency regime can be instituted but everything else should be separated. We are too different culturally and language to work as one nation economically.
No need to guess. India opposing any project bankrupting Pakistan for eg CPEC, military spending etc, makes Pakistan double down on it. Win win for India.
There are no flaws in gwadar project and road leading towards that but for any portion of CPEC investment to give returns to chinese investors and give revenues to pakistan government they have to be on punjab sindh side of indus , where population is , trade is , writ of state is . Arab investors too like chinese investors should invest on this side of indus and on medium sized projects not mega projects . Sharifs have this tendency of encouraging stock markets by reducing interest rates and retard estate sector to make influential karachi business rivals happy where stocks concentrate , they have this tendency to encourage overseas investors to mega projects in baluchistan and kpk to make pathan.and baluch leaders happy and keep army busy in protecting foriegners . This is now failing and punjabi and sindhi profederation nationalistic parties are going to replace PPP , PMLN and PTI with increased.autonomy in constitution some trend which India post election is also heading towards . Gawadar port has opponents not only in form of USA but also arabs who fear china iran gathering here in taiwan war scenario . China will enter pakistan in taiwan war if its own ports are blocked . However the himalyan region of cpec will be india china trade route via kashmir and punjab once india china detente occurs , which is one main purpose of CPEC . It has not failed but chaos in politics via USA and khans of pakistan has dimmed CPEC . Baluchi sardars are not valuing it properly
@lokkaisa Pakistan has been gripped by pathan afghan smuggling gangs whose activities are extremely wife in scope and Karachi rupee devaluation and electricity and energy circular debt fraud gang , these two have learnt to buy IMF experts ,buy newspapers , buy politicians and officials , they control about 8 trillion rupees or more portion of economy . Only merciless groups with jaws and teeth can render them out of business not simple minded army .. it is a pseudo crisis not real crises . Crisis of frauds
Absolutely wrong analysis showed the rivalry & anonymity against Pakistan & trying always unrrest in balochtan by Indian side, u know what that kalboshan is in Pakistani jail, that is ur intelligence & dream failure

it's not about just pakistan counter, it's about having an alternate for both west n eastern part of the country.

Could it be possible that they would start printing fake dollars to repay?
Correct
Indeed Pakistan is in a debt trap and it's horrifying! # Phatichar Pakistan!
Baloch are poor because daughters of Punjab and Sindh are not being sold in the bazaars of Quetta .
Why would China or any other country want to give help to another nation where it does not see any benefit for itself? Simple, see the mirror.
Excellent analysis. The commentator has nailed it perfectly. CPEC is a mirage.

The Baloch are Syrian migrants.
There is no such thing as "Balochistan" it is historical Sindhi land.

Instead reading working papers of other scholars can you tell me what is the problem with India in this project?
No need to guess. India opposing any project bankrupting Pakistan for eg CPEC, military spending etc, makes Pakistan double down on it. Win win for India.
😂 He is reading his article…..and he has no power to research any documents from either Pakistan or China so he have to rely on scholars
What if Pakistan decides not to ever repay the debt? Would China impose sanctions on Pakistan? And how much money would China lose ?
Possibly, China would enter and take over land in lieu of unpaid loan.
There is something called collateral.
China is looking to colonize Pakistan. CPEC is the new East India company.
Why do you keep reporting on so many Pakistan stories? We're not interested.
