'China's enemies are Pakistan's enemies'
 ISLAMABAD: People trying to destabilise China using the "Tibet card" and "religion card" oppose regional peace and stability, and as such are Pakistan's enemies, said Mushahid Hussain Sayed, the Pakistan Muslim League (PML) secretary general, on Thursday.Mushahid said the PML felt a healthy relationship with China was important for Pakistan's economic development and regional role. He rejected fears that Beijing was a "regional threat to Islamabad", saying China was a peace loving country with good relations with Pakistan. He praised China's economic progress, particularly in lessening poverty. "Pakistan should take lessons from China, which has brought 300 million people living below the poverty line into the economic mainstream," he said. The PML leader hoped both countries would continue their long friendship. "We believe our all-weather friendship has been reinforced in several areas despite the changing regional scenario," he said.
