September 27, 2021: Pakistan and China have agreed to include Karachi Coastal Comprehensive Development Zone (KCCDZ) in the China Pakistan Economic Corridor framework. 

According to a press release issued on Sunday, the monumental decision was taken during the 10th Joint Cooperation Committee on CPEC's meeting held on 23rd September at Islamabad and Beijing.

Karachi Coastal Comprehensive Development Zone, a multi-billion dollar project, the first of its kind in CPEC, focuses on providing Karachi with an ultra-modern urban infrastructure zone to place it among the top port cities of the world.

The project would be built on direct Chinese investment in partnership with Karachi Port Trust with an expected investment of 3.5 billion USD.

The environment-friendly, game changer project also envisages four new berths for KPT and will unlock Pakistan’s unexplored Blue Economy and significantly enhance development and industrial cooperation between the two brotherly countries.
