imageISLAMABAD: Senator of PML-N Dr. Ghous Muhammad Niazi has said that Pakistan-China Optical Fiber Cable (PCOF) project between the two countries would be a milestone in the telecom sector aimed at boosting communication services through this modern system.

Talking to Radio Pakistan, the senator said that the Optic fiber project would help in providing alternative telecommunication route between Pakistan and China as the China Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) would transform Pakistan into one of the world's leading economies.

"Our government is committed to end the darkness of the country by serving the nation and would discourage agitational politics and those again want to disrupt the democratic process in the country", he said.

In the same programme, Director General Institute of Policy Studies Khalid Rehman said that Gilgit Baltistan was an important part of CPEC route and would uplift the area by providing employment opportunities to the youth and connecting it with rest of the country.

"The civil and military leadership is committed to protect and complete this project as it will be a guarantee for the peace and prosperity of the entire region not only Pakistan", he added.
