Due to the state’s restrictions, researchers have ignored the measurement of
democratic behaviour, perception and attitude in China. Present study is
taking the advantage of China Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) in
order to fill this gap. In this regard, Chinese labour working in various
cities of Pakistan were selected as the respondents. Participants were given
three choices (income, occupation and self-perception) to declare their social
class. Present study finds higher democratic attitude towards democracy in
those respondents who belong to middle class as compared to the upper and
lower classes. Besides, the study highlights that people who have
experienced new occupations, showed attitude towards democracy.
Adversely, the participants, who were satisfied with government’s
performance and their income, were found inclined towards the
authoritarian system. Furthermore, new occupational experiences and
attachments increase the democratic desire, which ultimately enhances
attitude towards democracy.
