Sea ports play significant role in the economic growth of a country  The Gwadar Port of Pakistan has a prime geographical location. It is situated at the mouth of the Persian Gulf, Strait of Hormuz, the cross junction of international sea shipping and oil trade routes.
The Gwadar Port connects three main regions – Central Asia, South Asia and the Middle East. The route from Gwadar to Central Asia is the most economical sea route. These economic opportunities will lead towards a developed Balochistan as well as a developed Pakistan with better infrastructure and jobs for the people of the country.

China has already started trade through the Gwadar Port as the first ship of China reached the Gwadar Port.

The trade caravan reached Gwadar from China under the strict security cover of Pakistan Army and other security agencies that would now be shipped to its next export destinations.

“This is the onset of the progress that has been awaited for years. But now this journey will continue till the times to come,” the Prime Minister House said in a statement on Saturday.

It said Gwadar was a Nature’s gift to Pakistan and Chinese friendship and cooperation had made it more valuable. “We are crossing new milestone into a new era of international relations,” it added.

Gwadar Port is rich of new possibilities not only for Pakistan and China but also for the whole world with a scope of import and export activity from Central Asia to the Middle East.

The shipment of first trade cargo from Gwadar to the international market heralds a changed Pakistan.


Starting its journey from Kashghar, the trade cargo reached Gwadar safely from Gilgit Baltistan after travelling throughout the country that also manifested the image of a peaceful Pakistan.
