Stores with various Chinese mobile phone brand logos are common on the streets of many big cities in Pakistan. Behind these logos is the great enthusiasm of Chinese enterprises to participate in the digital construction of Pakistan. 
For a long time, Pakistan mobile communication is mainly based on 2G access, facing many shortcomings, such as low transmission efficiency, signal instability, and so on, which cannot meet the needs of Pakistan’s domestic market. In the era of pursuing high efficiency, a "digital revolution" is inevitable. 
In May 2018, the Federal Cabinet of Pakistan approved the first “Digital Pakistan” policy submitted by the Ministry of Information Technology and Telecommunication (MoITT), which aims to create a fast and innovative digital ecosystem of digital services, information applications, and science and technology services for Pakistan, thus setting off a wave of change, and the development of Pakistan’s digital economy has entered the fast lane. 
According to data from the Pakistan Telecommunications Administration (PTA), as of March 2021, the number of mobile users in Pakistan has reached 183 million, with a penetration rate of nearly 85 percent, of which 3G and 4G users have reached 98 million. Chinese enterprises have played an important role in this process. 
"We have taken the lead in laying out the 4G network in Pakistan and have been at the forefront of the digital age in Pakistan," Wang Hua, CEO of ZONG, told China Economic Net(CEN) recently. 
ZONG is an international brand created by CMPak, a 100% owned subsidiary of China Mobile Communications Corporation in Pakistan. By this year, ZONG has built more than 14,000 4G base stations in Pakistan and provided high-speed mobile broadband to rural areas of Baluchistan, which will cover 227 unserved areas of Jaffarabad, Naseerabad and Sohbatpur.
