Pakistan new airport located in the coastal area of Gwadar was completed in October 2024. The mystery which was raised is there were no passengers, no planes this is the most expensive airport in Pakistan. This airport was entirely financed by China with a whopping worth of $240 million. From the past decade China has invested in Pakistan, mainly in Gwadar.
According to the sources the city is not connected to the national grid and the electricity is also borrowed from the neighbouring country Iran with not have enough clean water. They didn’t give priority to the 90,000 citizens residing in that place and the airport was built for 400,000 passengers. Experts say that this was built so that china could secure access to the place directly to Gwadar and Balochistan.
Many locals are now irritated by this. few locals said “Nobody used to ask where we are going, what we are doing, and what is your name,” said 76-year-old Gwadar native Khuda Bakhsh Hashim. “We used to enjoy all-night picnics in the mountains or rural areas.”
