MPRA Paper from University Library of Munich, Germany

Abstract: The historic strategy of global resource imperialism, implemented by the 2013 Belt and Road Initiative from the People's Republic of China, has set a new competitive landscape for economic development worldwide, and the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor is a priority case study for the impacts of rapidly modernizing local transportation networks, energy infrastructure, and the economy. It is essential to track local attitudes towards these government programs, as in the research by Saif, Meixia, and Saleem (2023) from Dalian Jiaotong University, which provides survey results from construction industry participants in Pakistan during this ongoing massive infrastructure investment program.
