Deeper cooperation expected

As China forges ahead with its path toward high-quality development and sci-tech self-reliance, Pakistan stands ready to deepen the "ironclad" partnership through enhanced economic cooperation and technological collaboration, said Khalil Hashmi, the nation's top envoy to Beijing. In an exclusive interview with China Daily during his recent trip to Shanghai, Hashmi welcomed the comprehensive decision adopted at the third plenary session of the 20th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China that laid out an effective road map for shaping China's more resilient economy over the next five years and beyond. The 13 sectors, encompassing information technology, mines and minerals, pharmacy, agriculture and electric vehicles, among others, represent areas where China's technologies can be transferred to foster growth in Pakistan. "China has established an international space center and has launched missions to the moon and Mars, demonstrating its capabilities in space technology," Hashmi said, highlighting the recent inclusion of Pakistan's ICUBE-Q satellite in China's Chang'e 6 lunar mission.
