Gwadar is a coastal city in Baluchistan. The local population is almost 150,000. Gwadar is generally hot in summer. However, areas along the coastal belt maintain a slightly lower temperature compared to inland Gwadar due to the winds from the sea.
Oman lies opposite of Gwadar on the Arabian Sea. The local population enjoys close ties with Oman. Many people of Gwadar have dual nationality of both Pakistan and Oman. When Gwadar was purchased by Pakistan from Oman in the 1958, it was agreed that the Baloch would serve as recruitment sources for Oman police and army.
The geo-strategic importance of Gwadar was first identified by a US Geological Survey published at the request of Pakistan in 1954. Gwadar enjoys access to warm waters of the Arabian Sea. It also acts as a gateway to trade in the Middle East and North Africa region.
USSR had also attempted to invade Pakistan after Afghanistan to gain access to the warm waters off the Makran coastal belt. But the USSR resorted to invading Pakistan to gain its objective then. It had to pay a heavy price and suffered great loss that eventually led to the disintegration of the USSR into Russia.
China also seeks access to the warm waters. It currently has water disputes with Japan, which has the backing of the US. As the world's second largest economy, China does not want to directly confront the US over an agenda that is unlikely to settle in the near future.
But rather than invading Pakistan, China created roads, industries and energy infrastructure and was hence warmly welcomed by the people of Pakistan. Accordingly, the $55 billion China-Pakistan Economic Corridor was signed between the two friendly neighboring countries in June 2016. CPEC is a series of more than 20 mega-development project that seek to improve connectivity between China's Xinjiang to Pakistan's Gwadar Port through a network of highways, railways and pipelines. More than $30 bn is devoted to energy projects alone. Under the agreement, a range of coal, solar, hydro and nuclear power plants are to be completed all across the country.
It would be wrong to say that the idea of CPEC was also conceived in 2016. In fact, China had already envisioned this trade route back in 50s and 60s when it decided to build the Korakoram Highway to connect the two countries. The same vision still transpires throughout the efforts of the two countries who are desirous of promoting harmony and prosperity through trade and innovation.
In Nov 2016, the first shipment under China Pakistan Economic Corridor successfully reached Gwadar. PM NS and ex-Army Chief inaugurated the momentous occasion.
Today, as many as 30 countries have expressed their eagerness to join CPEC. Gwadar is all set to become Pakistan's first international port city.
Gwadar is the world's largest natural deepwater port. It offers gateway to trade in MENA region. It reduces shipping time from China to MENA significantly allowing it to compete with major Indian competitors across industries, such as Petrochemicals. China's petrochemical industry takes more than 30 days to be shipped to oil-rich countries. On the other hand, India ships its products in less than a week. China intends to shift its petrochemical industry in Gwadar to attain improved business efficiency by reducing shipping time significantly.
Some people are speculating that this is only a temporary hype, just like the first phase of Gwadar development, from 2001 to 2007 under Pervez Musharraf. However, this comparison is pointless as we are comparing a mere $250 million of investment on Gwadar Port in Musharraf's time to more than $5 billion worth of CPEC development projects in Gwadar alone.
History will give remember Pervez Musharraf for his efforts to establish Gwadar as an international port city. In the next 5 years, Gwadar will finally transform into the global economic hub he had envisioned. However, this does not mean that the conditions in which Gwadar is being developed today are the same as those in the first phase of Gwadar development.
CPEC is a game-changer that will provide the much-needed impetus to kickstart not just Gwadar Port but the entire infrastructure of Pakistan. It will set Pakistan on the trajectory of success and prosperity. Not only urban cities, but rather the most impoverished parts of Pakistan will benefit tremendously from CPEC.
The signals are so positive that Pakistan stock markets are performing at unprecedented levels. Many international forces are getting seriously worried about the recent developments as it is directly contrary to what their evil schemes for Pakistan. It shouldn't be surprising that India is at the forefront of these forces (as always) and is resorting to all possible measures in its shameful, desperate and distasteful arsenal of weapons, which include lies, fake propaganda, hypocrisy and deceit.
What has gotten India worried is simply the fact that despite all its evil schemes and plans, Pakistan is all set to become one of the world's most powerful economies. They threatened to wage an economic war on us and are simply shocked at how nature has bestowed Pakistan with a unique win-win opportunity. Soon, most countries of the world will be eager to work with Pakistan along the lines of CPEC. Only recently had India warned to seclude us. It better worry about its own seclusion now.
Every faction of the state, every major stakeholder seems to be on the same page. Our politics is very dirty, there is no denying it. But here again, the ruling PML-N government foresees a future election sweep despite very poor performance across all fronts, simply by virtue of the benefits that will be realized in Pakistan by 2018.
And there are quite a number of benefits that they will boast of, ranging from claims to ending power problems to the wide range development projects that will have opened by then due to CPEC.
Every province only has to gain from the CPEC developments. Media is reporting a very positive picture and the people of Pakistan are all too eager to benefit from the millions of new opportunities that will spring by virtue of CPEC.
Gwadar, being the main attraction behind CPEC, is all set to to some serious upgrades not just in port infrastructure but the development of the entire city as well. A $300 mn airport is planned for completion in the next 2 years. A primary school has just been completed by China in Gwadar where education is being imparted to local children for free. A $100 mn water treatment plant will also be installed in Gwadar.
Short-term port expansion activities include creating additional nine multipurpose berthing areas. Eventually, in the long term 45-year CPEC plan, the port will be expanded to 103 berths. Dredging of approach areas will accommodate larger vessels in the port. A state-of-the-art hospital is also soon to be completed by China in Gwadar.
China Overseas Holding Company is also setting up a special economic zone in Gwadar. It has leased 2292 acres of land for $2 bn in Gwadar for a term of 43 years. Further, Pakistan and China are also setting up joint naval base in Gwadar to protect this strategic piece of land from external threats.
The planned city of Gwadar holds numerous opportunities today. Given the rate at which international players are entering Gwadar, the entire land strip will no longer be available to small and medium level investors.
This is a unique opportunity for Pakistanis to benefit by investing in Gwadar. The only risk your investment can have is if you fall for a scam. That risk always exists for any market. But if you study the market conditions properly and look for opportunities that offer decent returns but with controlled risks, there is no reason not to make the jump. At the present day rates, Gwadar land is selling for a very small fraction of its real potential and there is no telling when that may change.
Of course there are loopholes, but that's where we come in. We're also out to spread an awareness campaign. There are some market players benefiting from heavy advertising campaign, such as Green Palms, which is selling undeveloped land in Master Plan B, which is quite distant from Gwadar 100-acre roundabout and is not planned for development until the next 20 to 25 years. Those investments may also be safe, but may not yield much benefit in the near future.
To truly maximize your investment, you should consider a Master Plan A project especially if you're interested in investing along the West Bay, where all the residential areas, resorts, hi-rise towers and hotels are planned.
The industrial side of Gwadar is also being developed, but you will mostly find open land that may even be disputed in some cases. As such, we don't recommend our investors to tread there.
As a consultant, I am reaching out to all of my clients and investors and encouraging them to look for and invest in genuine opportunities in Gwadar. If you need any assistance, we will be happy to present a range of genuine opportunities that are backed by solid guarantees from a regulatory body, such as Gwadar Development Authority. Investing in these products will help you secure the future of your coming generations.

GDA publishes a complete list of genuine and verified residential and commercial projects in Gwadar. From this list, we further present to you only the offerings that come with the best features in terms of completion of development, location, and other benefits.
To conclude, I will only say that this time will not come again. Can you imagine how it would have been if you were in the 60s but couldn't invest in Islamabad under CDA? I've heard so many people say they had the money but not the vision to reach out to that opportunity. Well, history seems to be repeating itself. Now you're getting the same thing under GDA. Gwadar is all set to become Pakistan's first international port city. How often does that happen in our history? umm, like never???
