although CPEC would be game-changer for Pakistan,it would have substantial benefits for Chinese economy.

1)it will provide short-route and economical access to oil rich gulf countries.

2)the current route of Malacca strait is 13000km long and it takes 45 days to supply goods,on the other hand gawader-kasghar route is 3000 km long and it will take(inshALLAH) 15 days to reach china

First of all let me tell you that CPEC was decided will before PMLN govt, though they signed the MoU. Original route was passing through western areas of Pakistan, and thats why PMLN brough changes after coming into power.

With due respect dear, I will differ with your stand that there is no single inch change in original route. like rest of govt official even you believe this. Infact there is no Western Route as even you have claimed that the Western route will be completed through Asian Development Bank funding while Nawaz govt was claiming that its a part of CPEC and will get funding from Chinese govt. let me tell you about more contradictory remarks on behalf of govt.
Punjab govt submitted a statement that Lahore Orange Metro line is part of CPEC though they did not submit documents due to its sensitive nature. on the other hand, According to Ihsan Iqbal, Metro Orange line is Not part of CPEC...Jhoot k pawo nahi hoty...So saying that enemy is making its controversial is biased.
I have attended seminor on CPEC the day Iranian President visited Pakistan, same Power point were later presented to Irani President. There is no single project for Gilgit though you have claimed i dont know whats your source. Personally i have worked with Senate of Pakistan and was interested to know projects that will be done under CPEC in GB, but i found zero project.
So for Punjab will get huge amount of CPEC, while China made a claim that this route will passed through largely underdeveloped area, on other hand Pakistan passed its through its developed province claiming security concern in other provinces (75% route will pass through Punjab province alone)....
According to many officers at Parliamnet, there is no such Western route..its a lolly pop...
