Mr. Nawaz Sharif
Prime Minister of Pakistan
Official Message
I feel honored to host HE Mr. Xi Jinping President of the People’s Republic of China on his eagerly awaited state visit to Pakistan. I, on behalf of the people of Pakistan and the government of PML N, sincerely and wholeheartedly welcome our worthy friend and convey our good wishes.I wish to reiterate that Sino-Pakistan friendship is a fraternal reality that is much above considerations of formal alliances and pacts. Pakistan and China are committed to each other irrespective of established norms of interstate relations. In the annals of international relations Sino-Pak relationship is unparalleled, reflecting consistent harmony and goodwill. Both countries maintain ties that are all pervasive in nature positively affecting our large citizenry. I am confident that the visit of HE Mr. Xi Jinping augurs well for Pakistan and holds very special significance in many ways. China wishes to share fruits of its high economic performance with Pakistan by entering into a host of joint ventures aimed at enhancing Pakistan’s capability in the fields of power generation, road infrastructure and ports. The multifaceted China Pakistan Economic Corridor will take our relations to an entirely new level and bring in a series of mutually beneficial economic advantages.
I acknowledge that the investment by major Chinese public and private sector enterprises in Pakistan is one of the largest influxes of foreign capital in Pakistan. It gives me great pleasure to note that majority of these projects has been initiated during the tenure of the present government that are now nearing implementation and commissioning stages. These projects would not only hugely impact Pakistan economy but would also boost confidence of international investors in the entire region. I am sure that the projects under China Pakistan Economic Corridor will create new job opportunities for our professional and skilled workers. They will help boost our national confidence and instill a sense of pride in all of us. In addition the Chinese groups and companies will have long term benefits from investment in Pakistan which will also open up new trade and investment opportunities for them at home and abroad. I am glad to note that this spurt of healthy productive activity is taking place in the year 2015 aptly titled as “Year of Friendship” between both countries. The quantum leap in business relations will result in stronger interaction between the people of both countries and result in further strengthening of our relations. I look forward to the visit of our worthy friend and wish him a very pleasant stay in Pakistan.
Mr. Xi Jinping
President of China
Official Message
Friendship between China and Pakistan is based on trust and mutual support, and we have been devoted friends through both good and hard times. Our friendship is a pacesetter for amicable relations between countries.
President Hussain, Prime Minister Sharif and I have agreed to elevate China-Pakistan relations to an all-weather strategic cooperative partnership. This description of China-Pakistan partnership is a most appropriate one, as it aptly defines the all-weather friendship and all-round cooperation between China and Pakistan.
First, we should strengthen mutual assistance and deepen strategic cooperation. We should keep the good tradition of frequent high-level visits and meetings, work together on major strategic issues, and support each other on issues involving our respective core interests and major concerns.
Second, we should advance our shared interests and achieve common development. We should use China-Pakistan Economic Corridor to drive our practical cooperation with focus on Gwadar Port, energy, infrastructure development and industrial cooperation so that the fruits of its development will reach both all the people in Pakistan and the people of other countries in our region.
Third, we should enhance close exchanges to build lasting friendship. This year is the Year of China-Pakistan Friendly Exchanges. We should conduct diverse and colorful events of celebration and encourage more contacts and exchanges between young Chinese and Pakistanis. In the next five years, China will provide 2,000 training opportunities for Pakistan and train 1,000 Chinese language teachers for Pakistan.
Fourth, we should stick together in face of difficulty and jointly meet security challenges. China will work with Pakistan to tackle non-traditional security threats so as to provide a reliable security guarantee for bilateral economic cooperation and common development. The Chinese nation loves peace. China will continue to pursue win-win cooperation and enhance friendship and cooperation with other countries. It will stay committed to the policy of affinity, sincerity, mutual-benefit and inclusiveness. It will deepen win-win cooperation with its neighbors so as to deliver more benefits to them through its own development. China will continue to pursue a win-win strategy for opening-up to build an open economy. This will create new development opportunities and space to both Asia and the world. We will strengthen cooperation with countries along the land and maritime Silk Roads, so as to jointly build an open platform for cooperation and create new impetus to achieve sustainable development in the related regions.
To build a China-Pakistan community of shared destiny is a strategic decision made by our two governments and peoples. Let us work together to create an even brighter future for China and Pakistan
Is this right time to invest in Gwadar? Which project is safe & secure?
CPEC no doubt is a game changer but very careful moves r required by Pak nation as many countries don't like this project at all few of them oppose openly and many other countries silently doing work on it to bring it down.
Our leaders always beg for aid from different countries why don't they plan to generate our own money?? There is no lack of resources and talent here in our country.
