My suggestion is google a place called Gwadar. China is already operating the deep sea port and have built a shiny road through the middle of Pakistan under a program called CPEC.

The last news I heard Pakistan was puling out of that deal . I know there is a port facility at Gwadar but I was under the impression Pakistan is running it not China but I could be wrong .

Sounds brutal but that is just history. Nation building never works and wars of insurgency should never be attempted. Unless you are the people being occupied.

the problems always come once you start sticking your nose in other people's affairs. We get s**ty when China tells us we should do XYZ.
what right do we have to go into a country, invade it and install our puppet government in there.
When are we going to learn that going into countries and forcing our values just does not work.
Now in time of cronavirus we are letting in thousands of Afghans, all while 40k plus Australian are stranded overseas, in some cases without any income, parents and children separated, children from 1 year to 60 year old
