Islamabad: Planning Minister Ahsan Iqbal announced on Friday that a security review meeting would be held every month on China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC). Iqbal urged the need to build a “safe and secure environment for CPEC and to effectively tackle kinetic and non-kinetic challenges”. “CPEC is a flagship project of Pakistan & China Economic Cooperation which can enable Pakistan to become an industrial economy. It is unfortunate that the momentum of 2013-18 could not be sustained,” said the minister.
