Chinese CPEC workers in Pakistan to move in bullet-proof cars
 

Both the sides have also agreed to strengthen capabilities of the law-enforcement agencies and investigators, reported The Express Tribune.
&nbsp;

Amid the growing concerns over the safety and security of Chinese nationals working on the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) projects, Pakistan and China on Sunday agreed to use bullet-proof vehicles for all outdoor movement of Chinese workers.
Against general expectations, Pakistan and China did not sign the 11th JCC minutes during the two-day visit of the Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif to Beijing earlier this week. In the past, the minutes were signed immediately after the JCC. Planning Minister Ahsan Iqbal had said after the meeting that the minutes would be signed during the Prime Minister's visit, reported The Express Tribune.
"Due to a very short visit of only 24 hours some of the memoranda of understanding, including the minutes of the JCC, could not be signed," the Minister said.
"About 17 meetings took place in a span of 24 hours, which left no time for some other important engagements," he said, adding that either a delegation would soon go to China for the singing or those would be signed virtually.
Both the sides have also agreed to strengthen capabilities of the law-enforcement agencies and investigators, reported The Express Tribune.

'Deeply concerned' about security of Chinese people in Pakistan, Xi tells Sharif

President Xi Jinping on Wednesday expressed "deep concern" over the security of Chinese nationals working in Pakistan on the CPEC projects and sought "reliable and safe environment" for them during his talks with Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif,

This is the second time in about two months Xi expressed concern over the recurring attacks on Chinese nationals working in Pakistan

President Xi Jinping on Wednesday expressed "deep concern" over the security of Chinese nationals working in Pakistan on the CPEC projects and sought "reliable and safe environment" for them during his talks with Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, who is in Beijing on his maiden visit to bolster the all-weather friendship.
Sharif, who arrived on Tuesday night on a two-day visit, met Xi and the two leaders held wide-ranging talks during which they agreed to strengthen the all-weather friendship and the USD 60 billion China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC).
"I am deeply concerned about the security of Chinese people in Pakistan and hope that Pakistan will provide a reliable and safe environment for Chinese institutions and personnel going to Pakistan for cooperation," Xi told Sharif in their meeting at the ornate Great Hall of People, according to an official statement.&nbsp;
Sharif is the first Head of the State to felicitate Xi on his recent record victory as General Secretary of the once-in-a-five-year Congress of the ruling Communist Party of China (CPC), a privilege accorded only to party founder Mao Zedong.
This is the second time in about two months Xi expressed concern over the recurring attacks on Chinese nationals working in Pakistan by the Baloch Nationalist Army and other militant groups that oppose the Chinese investments in the troubled province under the USD 60 billion China Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC).
India has objected to China over the CPEC as it is being laid through the Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK).
Sharif met Xi last month on the sidelines of the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) summit at Samarkand in Uzbekistan.
In his Samarkand meeting with Sharif, Xi had called for providing solid protection for hundreds of Chinese working on the CPEC projects.
With recurring attacks on its workers, China is reportedly pressing Pakistan to permit the Chinese security agencies to provide security for their personnel which, according to press reports, Islamabad is resisting as it meant boots on the ground for Chinese armed forces.
In his meeting with Sharif, Xi who is expected to be in power for his life like Mao and accorded priority to China's ties Pakistan in his last 10 years with the CPEC, said China and Pakistan are good friends, good partners and good brothers&rdquo; and they demonstrated "iron-clad friendship&rdquo; by supporting each other in a &ldquo;chaotic world&rdquo;.
"China has always viewed China-Pakistan relations from a strategic height and long-term perspective, and has always placed Pakistan in priority in our neighbouring diplomacy," he said.
China is willing to work with Pakistan to enhance all-round strategic cooperation, accelerate the construction of a closer China-Pakistan community of shared future in the new era, and inject new impetus into the all-weather strategic cooperation partnership between China and Pakistan, he said.
He said both sides should make good use of the mechanism of the Joint Cooperation Committee of the CPEC to promote the construction of the projects more efficiently and build it into a high-quality development demonstration project of the BRI.
Recent reports said China is deeply unhappy over the inordinate delays of the CPEC projects which Sharif says will be accorded priority to complete with new deadlines.
"We should accelerate the construction of supporting infrastructure of Gwadar Port, and give play to the role of the port in radiating and driving the development of regional connectivity," Xi said.
The CPEC connects Xinjiang with Pakistan's strategic Gwadar port in Balochistan.
"Both sides should make joint efforts to create conditions for the early implementation of the upgrading and reconstruction project of Mainline No. 1 railway line and the Karachi ring railway project," Xi said.
The Mainline No. 1 railway line refers to the Karachi-Peshawar rail line, which the previous Imran Khan government was not keen on as it was estimated to cost about USD 10 billion, increasing Pakistan's debt burden.

According to reports from Pakistan, Sharif is expected to make a case for Beijing to provide more help for his government to shore up the balance of payments position to avert a crisis similar to Sri Lanka.
The International Monetary Fund (IMF) said Pakistan's total non-Paris Club bilateral debt currently stands at about USD 27 billion, of which Chinese debt is about USD 23 billion.
Pakistan's state-run APP news agency reported that in his meeting with Sharif, Xi announced 500 million yuan (USD 70 million) as relief for the victims of recent floods in Pakistan. China earlier announced USD 70 million in aid for flood relief.
Xi told Sharif that China deeply sympathizes with the Pakistani people who suffered from the devastating floods, and will provide additional emergency assistance to help Pakistan in post-disaster reconstruction.
Sharif told Xi that the world cannot live without China.
"The world cannot live without China, and no force can contain China's development in isolation. It is believed that President Xi Jinping's foresight will not only continue to lead China to create more brilliant achievements, but also lead the world to a brighter future," the Chinese statement quoted Sharif as saying.
"I am very honoured to be one of the first foreign leaders invited to visit China after the successful convening of the landmark 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, which fully demonstrates the deep 'iron-clad' friendship between Pakistan and China," Sharif said.
"On behalf of the Pakistani government and people, I would like once again to warmly congratulate President Xi Jinping on his re-election as General Secretary of the CPC. Over the past decade, under the wise leadership of President Xi Jinping, China has made great achievements in development that can be called the miracle of the times," he said.
He also said Pakistan firmly pursues the One-China Policy, firmly supports China's position on issues of core interests such as Taiwan, Xinjiang and Hong Kong.

After the talks, Xi held a welcome banquet for Sharif in the Golden Hall of the Great Hall of the People.
Sharif will also meet Premier Li Keqiang and Li Zhanshu, the Chairman of China's Parliament -- the National People's Congress (NPC) -- to discuss the all-weather ties.
During his visit, a number of agreements are expected to be signed, officials said.&nbsp;

India on Tuesday slammed China and Pakistan for their efforts to encourage 'interested' third countries to join projects relating to their multi-billion dollar connectivity corridor that passes through Pakistan-occupied Kashmir. 

India slams Pakistan, China's attempt to involve 'interested' countries in CPEC projects

India on Tuesday slammed China and Pakistan for their efforts to encourage 'interested' third countries to join projects relating to their multi-billion dollar connectivity corridor that passes through Pakistan-occupied Kashmir.&nbsp;

India on Tuesday slammed China and Pakistan for their efforts to encourage 'interested' third countries to join projects relating to their multi-billion dollar connectivity corridor that passes through Pakistan-occupied Kashmir.
In a sharp reaction, External Affairs Ministry Spokesperson Arindam Bagchi said such activities under the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) are "inherently illegal, illegitimate and unacceptable", and will be treated accordingly by India.
The criticism came after Pakistan and China decided to welcome interested third countries to join the flagship CPEC initiative during a meeting of the CPEC Joint Working Group (JWG) on International Cooperation and Coordination held Friday last week.
"We have seen reports on encouraging proposed participation of third countries in so-called CPEC projects. Any such actions by any party directly infringe on India's sovereignty and territorial integrity," Bagchi said.
"India firmly and consistently opposes projects in the so-called CPEC, which are in Indian territory that has been illegally occupied by Pakistan," he said.
"Such activities are inherently illegal, illegitimate and unacceptable, and will be treated accordingly by India," he added.
The CPEC was launched in 2013 to improve Pakistan's road, rail and energy transportation infrastructure besides connecting its deep-sea port of Gwadar with China's Xinjiang province.

Are relations between 'iron brothers' China and Pakistan rusting? Does China believe that Pakistan can't be trusted to ensure the security of its citizens anymore?
It appears to be so, and it's bad news for Pakistan, especially at a time when international fault-lines are hardening.
A Pakistani lawmaker who recently met Chinese officials said that Beijing is "seriously concerned" and is "understandably indignant" regarding the recent Karachi terror attack, as per media outlet Dawn.
On April 26, a burqa-clad suicide bomber killed 3 Chinese nationals working at the Confucius Institute at the Karachi University. The Balochistan Liberation Army had claimed responsibility for the attack.
Recently, Pakistani senator Mushahid Hussain led a delegation to the Chinese embassy to express condolences over the Karachi incident. Mushahid told Dawn, "Chinese confidence in Pakistan&rsquo;s security system&rsquo;s ability to protect their citizens and their projects is seriously shaken. The pattern of attacks is so recurring and it&rsquo;s clear that Pakistani promises of &lsquo;foolproof security' are mere words, not matched by countermeasures on the ground."
The Karachi attack was the third one on Chinese nationals in Pakistan in a year. Meanwhile, the Pakistani establishment has denied reports that Chinese citizens were leaving en masse from the nation.

Hours after a blast at the Karachi university rocked Pakistan, the Balochistan Liberation Army claimed responsibility for the attack. The BLA's Majeed Brigade claimed that a woman named Shari Baloch had carried out the suicide bombing.

Pakistan's Balochistan region has been witnessing a rise in insurgency, with armed groups highlighting demands ranging from autonomy to complete independence. The China-Pakistan Economic Corridor, or CPEC, passing through the region has also angered the locals, who are seeking a greater share of the wealth generated from resources in the region.

Karachi, PTI: Militants ambushed a convoy of oil and gas workers escorted by paramilitary troops in Pakistan&rsquo;s restive southwestern province of Baluchistan, killing 14 people, including 7 soldiers.
The attack was carried out on Thursday on the state-run Oil &amp; Gas Development Company Ltd (OGDCL) workers in Ormara town in Gwadar district.
The Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR), the media wing of the Pakistan Army, confirmed that the militants had also sustained heavy losses in the exchange of fire and seven Frontier Corps (FC) soldiers and seven private security guards were killed in the attack.
"The terrorists attacked the convoy from the mountains near Ormara on the Balochistan-Hub-Karachi coastal highway and heavy exchange of fire took place. The convoy was returning to Karachi from Gwadar,&rdquo; a top police official in Gwadar said.
He said it was a planned attack and the militants had prior information about the convoy going to Karachi.
"They were waiting for the convoy. Despite the FC and security guards losing their lives, the other FC personnel managed to safely get the convoy away from the spot near Oramara,&rdquo; the official said.
Gwadar port is the focal point of the USD 60 billion China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) development projects and a number of officials of the state-owned institutions and foreigners work at the port city under heavy security cover.
The ISPR, without giving the exact numbers, said a &ldquo;large&rdquo; number of terrorists had attacked the convoy.
"Security forces responded effectively, ensured security of the OGDCL persons and managed their safe exit from the area," it said in a statement, adding that "substantial losses were also incurred to the terrorists" during the exchange of fire.
According to the ISPR, the security forces have cordoned off the entire area and a search was underway for the militants involved in the attack.
No banned separatist or terrorist outfit or group has claimed responsibility for the attack.
