An excellent article once again Aditi. I knew about SL but had no idea about Gwadar and Kenya. Also since I am working on the East Africa region I know that trucking is their primary mode of transport. Port access is limited to Mombasa as you mentioned and Beira, Maputo, Dar es Salaam after which the land route is the only option left.

And trucking is a very important business owing to these geographical circumstances.

Loved the Infographics specially the one showing projects in Pakistan. If something is not done soon enough they will lose lot more than just a port to China. Plus Pakistan is also experiencing some inhouse conflicts with their own military.

Would love to read about your views on alliances in the event of a major war(military or trade).
