China says it is ready to work with Pakistan to promote high quality development of China Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) and inject impetus to sustainable socio-economic development.   

At the regular briefing in Beijing, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Mao Ning said CPEC had been in steady progress with fruitful outcomes in energy cooperation, providing a positive contribution to improving the energy structure and energy security in Pakistan. 

The spokesperson appreciated Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif's remarks on the Thar Coal Block-I Coal Electricity Integration project in which he had said the project will turn the region of sand dunes into a source of power.

Mao Ning said the project would transmit electricity across Pakistan and serve the interest of local economy and people's livelihood.
