The completion ceremony of a China-donated vocational training institute was held in October in Gwadar of Pakistan's southwest Balochistan province.

As an important project for the public's well-being under the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC), the Gwadar Technical and Vocational Institute was constructed with an aim to meet the urgent need of the locals in Gwadar and promote the sustainable development of the area.

"During its construction, the project provided more than 1,000 jobs to local people. After completion, it can accommodate 360 trainees at one time, and provide training opportunities for at least 1,000 people every year," said Chinese Ambassador to Pakistan Nong Rong, adding that the institute will serve as an "incubator" for high-quality and skilled workers for Gwadar and Balochistan.
