Now Lets discuss about today's topic.
You know,  traditionally for Export and import land locked Afghanistan has been dependent on Muhammad Bin Qasim Port in Karachi to get access to warm water of Arabian sea.
Afghanistan has always preferred Gwadar port over Qasim port in Karachi due to shorter distance. The longer distance of Qasim port and  shipment inspection related procedural delays  have already forced Afghanistan to shift 40 percent of its business to Cha bahar port.

Hence, Gwadar port was the hope for Pakistan to regain the lost business. But its effectively Chinese port. Even if Afghanistan shifts transit trade to Gwadar port, the income and benefits will go straight to China.
You know, The strategic Gwadar  port is leased to china until 2059. The question is still open, if Pakistan will be able to service the $62 Billion Chinese loan to regain the control of this port in future.

Now look at this, to finalize port charges of Gwadar port, Afghans are in talks with China not with Pakistan the real owner of Gwadar port.

Right now, Pakistan has control over 95% of market in Afghanistan. you know, Afghanistan's wheat flour is from Pakistan. this over dependence has been heavily exploited by Pakistan over last decades.

Apart from this, The Afghanistan - Pakistan border is open and smuggling from Afghanistan to Pakistan is rampant. The goods intended for Afghanistan market end up being sold in Pakistan's market.
There are well documented examples of Afghans importing TV sets and Black Tea, more than its population needs. Its possible excess goods are being smuggled into Pakistan's market

All these goods are negatively impacting the domestic industries of Pakistan.

Now consider this, The distance in between Gwadar Port and Cha bahar port is just 100 Kilometer and Iran is charging minimal rates for port usage.

Hence, Afghanistan prefers Cha bahar port. While Afghanistan  has increased size of total import, Significantly the share of Pakistan in the total Afghan import has decreased.

Right now, Indian government is  opening Afghan market, but once the trade route is fully functional, Indian business can play smart game, moreover it will not be hard to sell good quality and cheap goods in Afghan market.

You can recall, Once Pakistan denied transit route for Indian wheat. The day has come, when Indian wheat will reach Afghanistan, but Para thas in Pakistan will be made of Indian wheat flour, due to smuggling of wheat across the border.
Friends, We dont support smuggling, Nevertheless, Pakistan will have  to spend more money on increasing vigil on the border and building a fence to  close it.
Basically, a short  time is left to end the Monopoly of Pakistan over Afghanistan market.

More importantly, The struggling economy of Pakistan will end up teaching it few lessons of peace and friendship, that it has  consistently refused to learn till now.

To grow trade first thing you need safety and security, Gwadar Port is located in turbulent Baluchistan province. Hence, safety of shipment and traders will remain concern.

On the other hand, there is no such issue with Cha bahar port.
With America giving thumbs up for Cha bahar port, there is no need to look back. Let the power of economics play role in Afghanistan.
The market in Afghanistan is good and it will grow further. Hence future is bright.

As far as we think, in the game Cha bahar port is going to win easily over Gwadar port.
