Abstract
The aim of the present study is to analyze the antithetical roles of discourse narratives on CPEC that how they create unrest or pertinence of CPEC in changing the regional ties through international print media. China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) played an instrumental role to form a close and firm tie between the neighboring countries which generated multi-perspectives about this macro cross-regional project. The researcher randomly selected one international newspaper and two journals which are famous and unbiased for their political reviews. The researcher used Faircloughian approach to analyze these multi-perspectives expressed in international print media. The qualitative results of the study revealed that countries used the international print media to advocate their state policies and stance over the mega projects like CPEC which can be the game changer for any region.
