Pak reiterates commitment on CPEC

Kasuri emphasizes upgrading CPEC, fostering people-to-people exchanges

BEIJING:

Pakistan is firmly committed to working with China to build an upgraded version of China Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) and looks forward to learning from China’s experience in governance and development, as well as deepening bilateral cooperation in various fields.

These remarks were made by Understanding China Forum Chairman and former foreign minister Khurshid Mahmud Kasuri in Beijing.

“This is our second visit to China since 2019. We witnessed with our own eyes the latest achievements in China’s high-quality development, especially its remarkable progress in ecological conservation,” he said.

“Understanding China Forum is willing to continue to give full play to the role of think tanks in serving government decision-making and enhancing people-to-people exchanges between the two countries, to contribute to the development of Pakistan-China relations,” Kasuri said last week while leading a delegation from the Understanding China Forum, a Pakistan-based think tank, during a visit to China.
