Now they are looking for foreign investors to take us they don't give us anything just because as I said just because they want to help a lot.
I know there is a commercial plus political interest in there so the problem is we need the money we need to invest and no one comes to Sri Lanka for the world's top economists and that has a huge impact on.
speeding through the highest mountains in the world to the Karakoram highway in Pakistan more than 4,600 feet above sea level Garage Pass is on the border.
Between Pakistan and China, the border gate looks like it could be part. of the Great Wall of China but that is far from the border here gives the impression of inaccessibility.
We compare our watches mine shows Pakistan time Chinese troops China China Time. Time difference of three hours
with just a few security measures in place here, China believes it should protect.
Itself from Islamists from Pakistan but Chinese officials cross the border here as it is clear that the Chinese transport official says they have no obligation to cross Chinese VIPs
They want to be photographed while in China the Chinese from Pakistan do not arrive until in the afternoon this should be the backbone of the main trade route.
But New Silk Road looks unsafe in terms of its value we do not return the container.
That was full of clothes and electrical items now empty is a dangerous way to get back less than the dangerous places.
Where there are strong curves along the way where our containers eat the pieces sometimes there are falling rocks it is dangerous bears trace of road accidents of Karakoram truck continues to China.
We live in Pakistan with police escorting us as we continue to the main construction site as the first Western television crew allowed to record here is a long-distance away.
A very difficult route on New Silk Road. stones that often damage a road that needs to be repaired in January 2010 A massive landslide killed 20 people.
The town of Audubon closed the floodgates of a river that forms a large lake part of the Karakoram highway and ended up under a rock and waterway.
It was moving again 'add to the mountains before heading out to cross the Alps with the elephant team Hannibal reportedly said I would find a way or build his goal was to conquer Rome as a new part of the Silk Road.
Of today's victorious system of the past, only the most courageous travelers tried to cross the Karakoram mountains even today.
It seems to stand in the remote areas of the Hunza Valley for many traditions are kept alive here but residents fear that when the highway is over.
Their way of life will be in danger. We don’t see much trade along the way and what we see is more reminiscent of the caravans of ancient Silk Road than a few trucks on the road, many painted and decorated as is the custom here.
The tunnel is unstable and the risk of falling rocks is always a hard time sleeping especially if something unexpected happened then I can't sleep the same way for all other people here on the construction site.
Our managers in Beijing 7,000 Pakistanis work here and 1,200 Chinese are their Chinese food at the canteen on Chinese television but their families are present.
Thousands of miles away and unreliable internet connection hello you are not sleeping you hear me connected, yes, I miss my home but there is nothing we can do I will not be able to go home till now.
I'm finished here The superintendents in charge of this massive construction project live and work in a hotel that has been turned into a castle.
The Pakistani government is concerned about Chinese safety this morning. it's a timed race we never get any rest so we work from early morning till 11:00 at night and never get a day off Chimay Isuzu.
Them all we want to show us a special the construction site is where we finally see why China is suffering carving a road in the mountains.
They built a tunnel in the middle of Pakistan a senior engineer brings us to a 60-meter-wide bridge over the earth this section of the imported bridge weighs 140 tons and eventually.
This bridge will be part of a new road bridge in china approaching its goal of direct access to the Arabian Sea just as the Roman empire combined.
Its power with state roads china builds its empire the view from this rise is confusing as it is a strategy to build a road on top of others.
The highest mountains in the world one day I will show my son and daughter where I am.
I have fought and struggled and built this road and I will be very proud. In the second part, we continue our journey on the New Silk Road from Kyrgyzstan to make spork.
