An educational event dedicated to the 35th anniversary of the newspaper 'Xalq Sozi', which began publication, took place at the center of the regional library of Abu Ali ibn Sina in Bukhara.

In a 12-part journey with Daniyal Khan, CGTN showcases a route through Pakistan, stretching from the majestic Karakoram mountains in the north to the Arabian Sea coast in the south. The series highlights infrastructure projects, industrial sectors, and local communities that form the core of Pakistan's development, as well as the growing cooperation between China and Pakistan.

In this episode, Daniyal follows the Indus River, which is the cradle of the ancient Indus Valley and a source of life for the Pakistani population for millennia. Today, the waters of this river remain critically important for agriculture, ensuring water security, and providing energy to the country.

At sites such as the Diamer-Basha Dam and the Dasu hydropower project, he meets workers from Pakistan, China, and other countries who are joining forces to harness the river's potential. The journey covers construction sites, underground tunnels, laboratories, and project camps, exploring the engineering challenges, international cooperation, and human stories behind these endeavors.

Furthermore, the episode examines how hydropower can shape the future of clean energy in Pakistan, as well as the contribution of women to these efforts.
