The Silk Road during Ming times was traversed by caravans sent by Muslim
kingdoms and variant merchants. The products which they brought to China
increased trade on Silk Road. The Muslims who settled in China also actively served
the Ming government; they functioned as interpreters, envoys, officials or
intellectuals. At the same time, Muslims also reconciled the conflicts of the regimes
and maintained the smooth flow of trade on the silk road. The ancient Silk Road
provides a rich context to the ongoing developmental projects in the realm of One
Belt One Road initiative. The rich historical context will prove helpful in enhancing
Pakistan’s participation in international trade, carrying out cultural exchanges and
making use of geographical advantages.
