Under the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC), 1,000 new jobs are expected to be created in Pakistan over the next few years.
According to state-run news agency APP, the new job roles will require a skilled workforce capable of meeting the demands of a modern, technology-driven economy.
The next phase of CPEC focuses on business-to-business collaboration and industrial development, aiming to place Pakistan’s economy on a sustainable growth path.
The government is adopting China’s successful vocational training model under its “Uraan Pakistan” initiative, aiming to prepare the youth for the Fourth Industrial Revolution.
The joint effort by the public and private sectors seeks to empower young people with future-ready skills and convert Pakistan’s large youth population into an economic strength rather than a burden under CPEC.
