Walking into the construction site of the new Gwadar International Airport, a huge metal frame structure comes into view, which is one of the main building terminals of the airport. According to the Chinese personnel of the project, the steel structure of the terminal building weighing more than 4,000 tons is in the process of intense construction. At present, dozens of building units of the project are being completed one after another, and it is expected to complete the enclosure in the first half of 2023.

Construction of the new Gwadar International Airport in Pakistan started in 2019 and is a key project under the framework of the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor. As a landmark project in the Gwadar region, the new Gwadar International Airport will also become a new engine for local economic development.Editor/Ma Xue
