China has invested hundreds of billions over 20 years to develop a new city, Shikoni Town, just 70 kilometers from the Indian border. This video explores the significance of this investment and the current state of Shikoni Town. Located in the southwest of Ali Prefecture, Tibet, near the disputed territory of Barrias, Shikoni Town has transformed from an uninhabited desert into a modern city, highlighting China's strategic and economic ambitions.

The Sherwan River Valley, once a harsh and desolate region, now hosts the flourishing Shikoni Town. This town, covering 1,040 square kilometers, serves as a crucial barrier between China and India. It has improved transportation links, connecting to the rest of China via the Tibet Highway and several other key highways. Shikoni Town also plays a vital role in boosting the border economy, fostering cross-border trade cooperation, and enhancing the quality of life for its residents with modern infrastructure, including schools, hospitals, and communication networks.

Despite challenges such as natural disasters and a harsh climate, continuous efforts and investments have turned Shikoni Town into a thriving hub. The region now boasts valuable mineral resources, a developed tourism industry, and efforts to protect the local ecosystem. The construction of Shikoni Town demonstrates China's national strength and strategic vision for border development.
