“…27 While the notion of China's 'debt-trap diplomacy' may be overblown, the way strategic considerations interplay with China's economic diplomacy and its incomplete approach to agreements more broadly can also be seen in its Belt and Road Initiative. 28 China's strategy of gradual expansion of limited agreements, its growing investments in Pakistan, and the increasing importance of the China-Pakistan economic corridor, has provided China with opportunities to implicitly link further economic cooperation to other issues areas such as security. 29 This can be seen in the growing strategic relationship between Pakistan and China that has run in parallel to closer economic cooperation following conclusion and subsequent expansion of the trade agreement since 2006.…”

This article contributes to discussions on why Chinese investments in Pakistan cover a wide variety of energy sectors, whereas capital allocation in Indonesia is concentrated in a narrow set of actors and energy sources (coal). While others have highlighted micro-, macro-, and meso-level dimensions, this research looks at the Chinese Ministry of Commerce’s (MOFCOM) communication as a further factor to steer Chinese project financing. By exposing a set of 281 MOFCOM statements to quantitative and qualitative discourse analysis, my findings reveal that MOFCOM publications offer more incentives for private participation in Pakistan than in Indonesia, as represented by the greater number of actors and projects listed, as well as the types of public policy instruments deployed. Besides theoretical contributions to steering theory, the study offers practical suggestions on how China can diversify investments to create more sustainable energy outcomes along the Belt and Road.
