Abstract
nted smoothly under the Belt and Road Initiative. Some significant energy and transportation projects are at their final stage, with visible impacts on Pakistan’s economic development and on Sino-Pakistan relations. However, it is found that during this process the cultural understanding and exchanges between the two countries are not given as much importance as the cooperation in other areas. This paper, thus, focuses on the cultural cooperation between China and Pakistan. It argues that to implement the CPEP, and deepen the all-weather bilateral strategic cooperative partnership and further boost a comprehensive and healthy development of the bilateral relationship, China and Pakistan should significantly improve their cultural exchanges. Therefore, a more efficient mechanism must be established, and some appropriate and practical measures must be implemented to increase the bilateral cultural exchanges at different levels. This paper will then accordingly provide some constructive ideas to deal with the issue mentioned above. Amongst them, there are two primary directions to be focused on. Creating a community of cultural industries and building up a cultural ecosystem which could be shared by both countries, are the two possible solutions. Through these methods, the "China-Pakistan Shared Destiny” can be constructed and can also be presented to the world as a model of cultural cooperation between two civilisations.
