Further Context on CPEC 2.0 Development
Recent economic analyses highlight CPEC’s role in enhancing trade between Pakistan and regional markets. A study by the Institute of Strategic Studies Islamabad (ISSI) notes that improved motorway links reduce freight transport time by up to 40%, lowering logistics costs for local industries. Parallel investments in digital infrastructure—such as the under-sea cable project and fibre-optic upgrades—are set to expand broadband access across Pakistan’s urban and rural districts. Social components include new vocational training institutes in Gwadar and skill-development centres in Punjab and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, aimed at providing at least 50,000 trainees with job-ready qualifications by 2026.
