For as long as I've been hearing about massive oil deposits in Pakistan which will make every Pakistani an oil sheikh, I've also been hearing about Gwadar being the next Dubai, Gwadar being the future of Pakistan, Gwadar making Pakistan rich and powerful. None of that has happened and it stays a tiny little town in the middle of nowhere with no drinking water.
The reason the Anglo-Hindu establishment has been promoting Gwadar is because they could not transfer Karachi Port to Rawalpindi. They tansferred the Capital, and everything else they could carry but they could not transport Karachi Port, so they started having wet-dreams about Gwadar. Hasn't worked so far.
Despite some Chinese members posting encouraging reports, as far as I know, the reality is that the Chinese govenment is not too happy with the doublecrossing Anglo-Hindu establishment and most investment is at a standstill.
