Great piece of work.
Love the Chinese engineers
Long LIve Pak-Sino relationship
This tech is practiced in Europe
is this being consgtructed by the Chinese Engineers recently?? because few years back when I was going to Khunjerab, the FWO was working, constructing something similar to this one, but I am not sure whether it was the same place or some where else,
