Large-scale initiatives under the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) have expanded road networks, power generation, and port facilities. Financing relies on public spending, external borrowing, and foreign investment, particularly from China. Fiscal pressures, debt sustainability, and governance reforms remain central to long-term infrastructure outcomes.
