My question is not absurd at all. It is intuitively logical and inherently inquisitive about the only fact that matters: What is the benefit for Pakistan in dollar terms today and why must Pakistan pay these bills?
Quoting you:
A project that has equal geostrategic value for China and China is betting on so much for, then why doesn't China - which is a 40x larger economy than Pakistan (Perhaps even Shanghai's GDP is almost double of Pakistan's nominal GDP terms) - and when we can clearly see the economic difficulties that small brother Pakistan has been facing: Then why does Iron Brother China not absorb the financial burden of these projects which is a very small burden for the great Chinese economy but a massive heavy weight for the ailing and nominal Pakistani economy which is barely surviving on IMF handouts? Clearly - something is amiss and I sense malevolent intentions from planners in Beijing.
@Mods: I hope you dont delete this post under guise of propaganda - everything I have stated is completely factual and logical.
