News Story: CPEC's concept of "one corridor with multiple passages" realized - Chinese envoy

GWADAR, Pakistan, Nov. 13 (Xinhua) -- Chinese Ambassador to Pakistan Sun Weidong said here Sunday that the concept of "one corridor with multiple passages" under the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) has been realized as the first bilateral joint trade convoy reached Gwadar port from China's Kashgar.

Addressing a ceremony celebrating the arrival of the co-organized trade convoy, Sun said this is the first time that a trade convoy successfully passed through the western part of Pakistan from the north to the south. "It proves the connectivity of local roads, and realization of the concept of 'one corridor with multiple passages'," said the ambassador.

He added that the trade convoy is the best reflection of the spirits of mutual consultation, joint construction, mutual benefits and win-win cooperation, and the spirits will serve as the solid basis for the future construction of the CPEC.
