China's system is better than Western electoral democracies: Imran Khan
Islamabad: Pakistan PM Imran Khan on Thursday lavished praises on the Communist Party of China (CPC) for its unique model of governance.
He described the system of governance in Pakistan's all-weather friend China as an alternative to Western democracy.
“Until now, we had been told that the best way for societies to improve was through Western democracy. However, CPC introduced an alternative system and they have beaten all Western electoral democracies in the way they have highlighted merit in society,” he was quoted as saying by The News International.
“But the CPC has achieved much better without democracy. Their system for sifting through talent and bringing it up is better than the democratic system,” Khan said.
He said China waged a better and successful war against corruption.
About the Pak-China relations, he said, “Whenever Pakistan has been in trouble, politically or internationally, China has always stood with us. The people of China have a special place in the hearts of Pakistanis.
“Relations between the two countries have only gotten stronger. You see a strange great power rivalry in the region. The United States is wary of China and has formed a regional alliance called the Quad," Khan was quoted as saying by the newspaper.
