China's 'belt & road' makes US$35 billion Pakistani transport investment MORE than 75 per cent of a projected US$46 billion Chinese-led investment in Pakistani transport infrastructure will be made as part of China's Silk Road plan. "Out of this $46 billion, we have been so far able to energise $35 billion," said Pakistani Planning and Development Minister Ahsan Iqbal. Pakistani Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif is seeking to boost growth to the highest in about a decade after China announced its investment plans in the nation of about 190 million people last year, reported Bloomberg. It's part of an initiative the Chinese government calls "One Belt, One Road" that aims to revive trade across Central Asia and into Europe via a network of railways, ports and highways.
