HONG KONG:
Federal Minister for Commerce Jam Kamal Khan has reaffirmed Pakistan's commitment to the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), saying the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) is positioning the country as a regional hub for trade, investment and connectivity, according to a statement issued on Thursday.
Addressing the 11th Belt and Road Summit in Hong Kong, he said CPEC was transforming the country's economic landscape through cooperation in infrastructure, energy and industrialisation.
"Pakistan is emerging as a vital bridge between West, Central and East Asia," he said, citing expanding rail and road links with China and transit-trade arrangements with Central Asian states.
