Is China using China Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) to colonize Pakistan just as the British East India company colonized India centuries earlier?



Will Pakistan be caught in a massive Chinese debt trap and eventually become China's colony? What are the terms of Chinese financing and investments in CPEC projects in Pakistan?

Are Pakistanis required to pay exorbitant interest rates on infrastructure loans and unreasonably high return on equity on power plant investments?

Is there an IBM-like organized campaign of fear, uncertainty and doubt (FUD) being waged by CPEC's detractors to convince Pakistanis that it's a zero sum game in which China's gain is Pakistan's loss?

Is there no possibility of win-win in CPEC for both China and Pakistan?

these are the key points I got from video as follows :

-interests rates are lower
-create around misely 700,000 jobs inside Pak
-the documentary clearly says countries not happy with CPEC want to on purpose make uncertainty for Pak China relationship in past,future
-they don't want CPEC to succeed
-It also says India want to create fear in the minds of all pakistanis
-This is coming from inside pak who primarly are foriegn agents
-In the future China won't be there for Pakistan as assistance of any kind
-In future China Paksiatan economic situation will be win win(which is present now)
but in future it will be win lose (China Pakistan ) economic situation becuase of Nawaz blunder in agreement made for CPEC
-Silk Belt road & initiative
-World bank has $1.7 trillion debt & IMF or something has next 10 years budget increase to $45 billion loans where China has created its own infrastru ture of loans in their own terms
Stop at 10.11 minute mark..please watch video for yourself from here onwards to save time :)
