by 2010 gwadar will be quite established with its industrial and export prossing zones developed and highway to china complete which should make exports hop to $50 billion for gwadar alone and then when gwadars fully established by 2015 the exports for only gwadar should jump to over £100 billion, but more then half will be west china exports.

Not at all. If anything the $25 billion expectation in 2 years is a very realistic target.

In fiscal year 2001/2002 Pakistan's total exports were just $9 billion.

At the end of this financial year (June 30 2006) we are approaching almost $18 billion.

If exports have doubled in just 4 yrs, and trends continue then we are well on our way to reach the $25 billion target in 2008.
