Pakistan should take safety and security of Chinese citizens very seriously. We shouldn't feel unsafe in the country we invest.

@test, This visit is to restructure loans and terms and conditions. China has not any announcement on CPEC or investments, or projects. All news only from Pakistan side.

@Re===, I say I expect and exceptions are not always fulfilled are they ? And sorry i would have rather used the word wish instead of expect. For Pakistan it is better to give military bases to China.
