#1 That 1000 MWt was thermal NOT electric but even a 300 MWe heavy water reactor is probably beyond Pak capability.

China itself bought their 700 MW heavy water CANDU units from AECL Canada. They don't seem too happy with them, choosing not to buy any more. Future reactors will be light water.

#2 Their reactors just don't seem too bright.

#3 I think they meant to say 1000mW. May be just a English-Metric conversion issue, like the Hubble Tele.

#4 No, 1000 MWe is a pretty big reactor
