The China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) as an important active pillar of BRI is focusing on building industries, revamping the agricultural outlook and helping Pakistan to gradually come out of its socio-economic challenges. The article added: “ History has shown that CPC is truly deserved to be called the glorious political party representing the true wishes and aspiration of the Chinese people. Over the past 100 years, CPC has made remarkable efforts with patience and continues hard work coupled with the wisdom of leaders, and made achievements in reforms, development and revolution. CPC has contributed towards strengthening China’s political stability, health, education, socio-economic development and in all diverse sectors. This day while CPC and Chinese people will celebrate the founding day, more than 1.4 billion people are moving ahead with full strength, wisdom and confidence towards a new beginning of the rejuvenation of the Chinese people. CPC has remained at the front, from poverty alleviation to national rejuvenation and modernization.
Since the opium war in 1840, Chinese people have passed through tremendous challenges and devastation. However, Chinese people stood firm against all odds. There were threats from foreign powers and internal turbulence at that time but with revolutionary mindset and perseverance, they took destiny into their own hands to change the course of their history. In those challenges and difficult times, a few young and strong men of wisdom pursued their dreams for their nation and followed their heart for the destiny of freedom. To achieve the goal, these brave hearts led many change movements till the time of the great revolution of 1911 that further later led to the founding of CPC. This was a time when communism was rising with Chinese characteristics. The founding of CPC in 1921 made the change in Chinese destiny in the right direction. Since then CPC has created an epic story of the modern history of mankind where millions of people have been lifted out of poverty, and global outreach has been achieved through the Belt and Road Initiative. Over the 100 Years, CPC has united the Chinese people into one whole and help them to stand together and enter a progressive era of progress and development.
