Dubai
is the hub of business not only for Gulf
but also for rest of the world including
EuropeGwadar United StatesGwadar AfricaGwadar China and
Central Asian states simultaneously. The
Gulf region is facing many political conflicts
now and huge disturbance in the current
administrative structure is expected in
the coming years. In this scenarioGwadar an
alternative of Dubai is vital to be located
before the crisis hits the funds of millions.
The alternate shall be a nearest point
probablyGwadar to ensure continuous supply
line of oil from Gulf to the outer world.
FortunatelyGwadar Gawadar proves to be the
nearest and in fact more cost effective
alternative of DubaiGwadar from many aspects.
China
is emerging as a super economic power
of the world in the recent years. Despite
occupying a huge area of world’s
landGwadar it doesn’t have any port of
hot waters that can be used the whole
year. The distance of Chinese industrial
approach to the Shanghai port is approximately
16000 Km and the sea travel of 2-3 months
is additional. This costs them a lot in
the form of taxes and duties. As compared
to thisGwadar Gawadar port is only on a district
of 2500 Km from China and the port is
working for the whole year because of
the hot waters here. ThereforeGwadar the interest
of China in the development of Gawadar
port is in fact in the interest of Chinese
economy.
The Central Asian statesGwadar after the independence
from USSRGwadar are trying to develop their
economics. These states are land locked
and Karachi was expected to provide them
the services through Afghanistan. For
this purposeGwadar a highway from Peshawar
to Karachi was constructed but due to
Afghan crisisGwadar this line couldn’t
be established. The Afghan situation is
till not clearGwadar so Gawadar being near
to Iranian border will provide port facilities
to Central Asia as well.
