Dutton Series Overview This China Maritime Report on Gwadar is the second in a series of case studies on China’s Indian Ocean “strategic strongpoints” (战略支点). People’s Republic of China (PRC) officials, military officers, and civilian analysts use the strategic strongpoint concept to describe certain strategically valuable foreign ports with terminals and commercial zones owned and operated by Chinese firms.1 Each case study analyzes a different port on the Indian Ocean, selected to capture geographic, commercial, and strategic variation.2 Each employs the same analytic method, drawing on Chinese official sources, scholarship, and industry reporting to present a descriptive account of the port, its transport infrastructure, the markets and resources it accesses, and its naval and military utility. -

Syed Mumtaz Ali Shah Managing Director Sindh Technical Education and Vocational Training Authority (STEVTA) the Present Governme
STEVTA Employment Through Skills Syed Mumtaz Ali Shah Managing Director Sindh Technical Education and Vocational Training Authority (STEVTA) The present Government is committed to promote Technical Education and Vocational Training in the province of Sindh. The efforts of Government are noteworthy and appreciable especially its contribution towards restructuring of TEVT in the province through establishment of Sindh TEVTA. Sindh Technical Education Vocational Training Authority (STEVTA) has been established to streamline and strengthen Technical Education and Vocational Training under one umbrella, I am confident that inefficiencies persisting in the domain of TEVT will now be done away. STEVTA is committed to developing qualitative and skilled workforce through our institutions around the province by focusing on demand driven training programs. During the first year of inception, STEVTA has taken major initiatives such as curriculum up-gradation through German experts, institutional infrastructural development, and faculty development through Technical Trainings at National Institute of Science of Technical Education (NISTE) that will go a long way in improving the learning environment in our institutions. STEVTA offers best opportunities of skill training through several institutions around the province. I hope the youth will prefer the track of Technical Education and Vocational Training for becoming part of the blue-collar workforce of Pakistan. In recent years, role and importance of Human Capital around the globe has changed due to advancements in technology, changes in political, social, & economic environment. Globalization has created vast opportunities for skilled workforce in the domestic and international markets. Reducing unemployment and poverty is the fore most challenge of the present Government. This challenge can only be met through enhancement of skill levels of the youth through Technical Education & Vocational Training. -
