    Default Port of Gwadar, Pakistan

    http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/south_asia/6469725.stm Note a 2007 report.

    This gives some focus to the discussions over the past weekend of the now in operation Port of Gwadar, Pakistan.

    Note in particular that China is or will build railroad lines to and from this port for transhipments to closest border with China...which can be inside Pakistan or across India.

    If inside Pakistan you are talking a railroad construction job akin to building the railroads through the Rocky Mountains here in the US "back when."

    Very interesting stuff.
