other 50 regional, Middle East, Central Asian Republics, and European countries

sharing of benefits as well as interests and concerns of the regional and
international players are posing threats to it. The review article aims to
investigate and analyze the strengths and weakness and opportunities and
threats (SWOT) for CPEC. To analyze the qualitative data, a computer based
software program ATLAS.ti was used by
