The article discusses how China is using foreign investment to control countries like Pakistan, following the United States' lead in neo-colonial practices. It looks at the history of colonization in the region and how China is continuing this legacy. The research shows that neo-colonialism is just a modern form of colonialism, with China now playing a major role. Pakistan is shown to be a victim of this new form of colonialism. The article suggests ways for Pakistan to lessen the impact of Chinese control.
