China helping Pakistan

Hina Latif:

I do not know how I feel about china helping Pakistan rebuild 2 nuclear power plants, providing an additional 680 megawatts of power. But I do not think its a good idea at all. Pakistan needs to rebuild its government and country first before they build this expensive project, I mean the country is listed as one of the poorest countries in the world, why is a nuclear power plant on the top of President Asif Ali Zardari things to do list??..

On the other hand Pakistani military killed 60 Taliban members in the northwest of Pakistan. The Pakistani military were trying to save a Chinese engineer who had been kidnapped by the Taliban. The Swat Valley, where this occured, was a famous tourist site, and it has been in the use of the Taliban since 2007.
