Abstract

Pakistan-China relations date back to the Silk Route, but the formal ties began in 1950. Pakistan was the first Muslim country to recognize China as People's Republic and Pakistan International Airlines was the first airline in the world to operate a service to and from China. China has steadily appeared as Pakistan’s largest trading partner (Holtom et al. 2013). The Pak-China relationship has grown steadily since 1960s and now the two countries privilege a deep friendship. The construction of Karakorum Highway (KKH) in 1972 further strengthened this bond. China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) is a part of China’s One Belt, One Road (OBOR) initiative.
