It was only recently that the Embassy of China in Pakistan took note of a report by a Pakistani journalist, in which he claimed that Pakistan will repay $40 billion debt to China under China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC). The country's Planning Ministry also took a very strong note of this so-called news item. It was pointed out that the number of $ 40 billion is wrong and misleading. No one in Pakistan should lose the sight of the fact that not only is CPEC a mega project, it is also a national cause.
It is in general knowledge that the CPEC is a major and important economic cooperation project between China and Pakistan. All CPEC projects are based on consensus of the two countries, and fully comply with relevant laws and regulations. Currently, 22 early harvest projects under the CPEC have been completed or are under construction, with a total investment of $ 18.9 billion. That facts are sacred is a fact. There must be no speculations with regard to this project of high national import.
