@Philosopher (from Japan) Take it up with the Chinese, they're the ones making the investments and the work will all be contracted to Chinese companies employing Chinese personnel. They're the ones making the investment decisions and the Sindh, KPK and Balochistan governments were fully a part of making those investment decisions. And since you're from Japan, is India ka matlab Maharashtra and Gujarat? Why is Japan building that bullet train only between Mumbai and Modi's hometown Ahmedabad? Did you just find my question ridiculous? Your protest was equally that.
