    b) Reliable transport enhances daily life for people by ensuring accessibility, connectivity, and
    timely services.
    c) Textile and cement exporters benefit from smooth transport, enabling timely shipments and
    maintaining competitiveness in global markets.

    Q3) How important is good transport for imports and exports? Explore the transport infrastructure
    of Pakistan?
    Good transport is crucial for imports and exports as it facilitates efficient movement of goods,
    reduces costs, and enhances trade competitiveness. In Pakistan, transport infrastructure includes
    road networks, railways, ports, and airports.

    Q4) What is CPEC and what benefits does it bring?


    CPEC is the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor, promoting trade and infrastructure development. It
    brings benefits such as enhanced trade, improved infrastructure, job creation, energy security,
    strategic cooperation, and regional connectivity.

    Q5) What is meant by the term “21st century Maritime silk road?
    The "21st Century Maritime Silk Road" refers to a strategic initiative under China's Belt and Road
    Initiative (BRI). It aims to establish a modern maritime trade route connecting China to Southeast
    Asia, Africa, and Europe, fostering economic cooperation, infrastructure development, and maritime
    connectivity along the route.

    Q6) Why are deep-water ports really important for world trade?
    Deep-water ports matter for world trade because they accommodate large vessels, reduce shipping
    costs, enhance global connectivity, handle higher trade volumes, offer strategic advantages, and
    function as transhipment hubs.

    Q7) compare the usage of different modes of modern transportation?


     Road Transport: Flexible and accessible, suitable for short distances, but limited in capacity
    and has environmental impact.
     Rail Transport: Efficient for long-distance bulk cargo, environmentally friendly, but less
    flexible and slower for short distances.
     Air Transport: Rapid and global, ideal for time-sensitive goods, but costly and limited in
    capacity for large-scale shipments.
     Maritime Transport: High capacity and cost-effective for long distances, essential for global
    trade, but slower compared to air transport.
