People associated with the hotel industry believe that the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor significantly created huge opportunities benefitting the commercial entities on both sides of the border.
With the launching of CPEC in 2013, the visibility of the Chinese in public spaces has increased in the main cities of Pakistan.
“I have been running Kim Mun restaurant for over 20 years, back then we only had 8 tables but due to support from the local people and love for Chinese food, now we were able to expand it, said Zhang Guo Gen, the restaurant’s owner while talking to China Economic Net (CEN).
The restaurant in downtown of the federal capital is reopened and backed to business since the Covid-19 lockdown was eased by the government.
When asked about the response from local people being a Chinese in Pakistan, Zhang replied cheerfully “We have been living here as Pakistani for the past 30 years. Pakistani people are really friendly and welcoming, they never make you feel like an outsider.
