  Gwadar - The Gateway to the Future  
     
 

Gwadar with its more than 300 kilometer coastline and captivating beaches on the shores of the Arabian Sea is all set to play an important role in Pakistan's history. It's significant location has gained instant recognition as a result of which Gwadar has established itself as the emerging hub of international trade with China, Central Asia, Gulf Countries and even Europe, in the not too distant future.

The small fishing village of yesterday is known today for it's Deep Sea Port that can be compared with the likes of Singapore, Hong Kong, Dubai and Colombo. Declared as a Duty Free Port and Free Economic Zone by the Government of Pakistan, Gwadar is innovatively planned as an Industrial Hub, Residential & Commercial Zone and as an enchanting Tourist attraction.

   
 

 

   
       
       
       
       
 
 
The Government of Pakistan has also declared Gwadar as a duty free port and free economic zone so that no taxes will be implemented here. Therefore not only local, but foreign business houses and companies are also investing here in a big way. Government of Pakistan itself has initiated a number of development projects in this area, like Railway line, Gas pipeline, International Airport, Motorway and its own housing projects to ensure maximum facilities to investors in Gwadar.

Keeping in view the strategic importance of Gwadar Port, the federal government has allocated Rs 1.722 billion for its development in the next fiscal year 2008-09.

In this regard allocations for six ongoing and one new development project has been approved in National Economic Council (NEC) meeting presided by Prime Minister of Pakistan. Total cost of these seven projects relating to development of Gwadar Port is Rs 27.681 billion.
Gwadar is the first seaport of Balochistan, which was completed in three years at a cost of sixteen billion rupees with the financial assistant of china. It will serve as an economic and trade transit avenue for Pakistan, Afghanistan, Central Asia and Middle East countries.

Gwadar, Pakistan,s first deep seaport, after functioning would change the fate of the area by transforming its socio-economic landscape. It would generate tremendous opportunities for the people of Balochistan as thousands of jobs and new business will be created by it.

Free economic zones would be set up near the port that would help harness vast potential in natural resources of the area. This port would also lead to the development of heavy and large-scale industries, petrochemicals and manufacturing sector. Pakistan is already strategically located and this seaport would increase this importance and make the access to the Central Asian States more convenient.

Singapore Port Authority, which would look after Gwadar port for 25 years, is running ports in almost 9 countries and would invest almost three billion dollars for the development of this port.

This port had been declared tax-free for 40 years and it is estimated that almost 50 million ton cargo would go through this port in next 10-15 years. It would give boost to the economy of the country and Pakistan would become the economical and trade hub of the region.

Gwadar is located on the southwestern coast of Pakistan, close to the Strait of Hormuz in the Persian Gulf, through which more than 13 million bbl/d of oil passes. It is strategically located between three increasingly important regions of the world: the oil-rich Middle East, heavily populated South Asia and the economically emerging and resource-rich Central Asia.

Gwadar Port is expected to generate billions of dollars in revenue and create two million jobs. This port would also lead to the development of heavy and large-scale industries, petrochemicals and manufacturing sector.

With a population of 125000, the Gwadar Town on Makran Coast is now set on way to become a hub of shipping, commercial and industrial activities.

The port comes as a much-needed national requirement in the wake of the rise in cargo traffic on Country’s ports, which are operating at full capacity.

It is expected that Pakistan’s maritime traffic would rise by three folds by 2010. With the construction of a third port, it is estimated that Pakistan will not only be able to meet its own requirements of the future but also offer its port facilities to the neighboring countries.

Dimension One (Pakistan’s Strategic Interests
)

(1) Gwadar is located only 180 nautical miles from the Strait of Hormuz through which 40% of World’s Oil passes. Gwadar could thus emerge as the key shipping hub in the area providing mass trade to central asian republics as well as across Pakistan and China. A road from Gwadar to Saindak is completed. Saindak is already connected to the RCD Highway (N35) and through Quetta-Chaman it provides the shortest route for trade with Central Asian Republics.

(2) Pakistan also needed a deep sea port away from Karachi so that in times of hostilities Pakistan Navy doesn’t get blockaded. With all the navy ships concentrated at Karachi port, a blockade of Pakistan had been quite easy in the past. With Jinnah Naval Base at Ormara and Gwadar port, PN should be able to spread out its assets. For reference, Gwadar port is 450 km further away from Indian Border than Karachi Port.

(3) Gwadar port will directly and indirectly bring lots of wealth, trade and infrastructure advancement to the area which has been traditionally left behind in developement. Compare it to how Karachi port transformed a once sleepy fishing village to a megapolis. This is all good news for Pakistan.

Dimension Two: (Chinese Interests in Reaching Blue Waters)

(1) It is also widely claimed that there is a Chinese interest in reaching the blue waters of Arabian Sea. This is cited as a strategic move by Chinese as they funded US $198 million (out of total phase I cost of US $248 million) and also provided 450 Engineers on site to finish the project on time. It is said that China is trying to develop its Western regions at par with its Eastern regions to reduce the economic gap within China and to stop the internal migration of people from West to East. It is famously called their ‘Go West’ policy. To market products produced in Western China, ports of Shanghai or other eastern ports are almost 3000 km away from the western production centers where as Gwadar provides access to a port at just 1500 km.

(2) There is another dimension to this project where Gwadar port is considered as the naval outpost for the Chinese. It has been called part of ‘String of Pearls’ strategy of Chinese where they’ve got hold of strategic ports in Gwadar, Bangladesh, SriLanka, Burma, Thailand, Combodia, and South China Sea etc. On a world map, these ports form of string (of pearls) which may form as Chinese line of defense to control oil movement. 80% of oil used in China goes through shipping lines of Malacca Straits. This strategy of a series of ports along the oil shipment routes gives China a forward footing. It is said that China is also wary that US may cut off its oil supplies through Malacca straits in case of any increase of hostilities on Taiwan issue.

(3) China has however, always denied that Gwadar will ever be used by Chinese military. Publicly they have always called it a civilian port of Pakistan.


Dimension Three: (Iranian and Indian Interests in the Area
)

(1) Gwadar port is also making regional players nervous. Iran which is only 72 km away from Gwadar considers it as an economic threat taking business away from Iranian ports. So in competition to Gwadar, Iran has developed its own port called Chabahar with the help of India. Chabahar is located in Iranian Balochistan province of Seestan. India is also building 213 km long road to connect this Iranian port with Afghanistan. India is eyeing this Iranian port as its own shortest route to Central Asian markets and may be a counter balance to Chinese influence in Gwadar.

(2) India may also consider the Chinese influence in Gwadar as a move by China to encircle India, hence their interest in developing Iranian port of Chabahar.
