Abstract
This book is a first-hand account of the personal experience of a diplomat, Mohammed Yunus, who is a former Ambassador of Pakistan and has spent a large part of his diplomatic career in China during 1953-1982. Alongside he also discusses the remarkable rise of China and the evolution of PakChina relations. The book comprises two parts. The first part gives a fascinating account of China‘s eventful period from 1953 to 1982 and the author‘s role in building the historic relationship between the two countries. The second part is unrelated to the author‘s diplomatic career as it deals mainly with the rise and fall of the Bank of Credit and Commerce International (BCCI) of which Ambassador (R) Yunus was a senior Advisor.
