It's that little piece of Afghanistan that sticks out at the top and stretches eastward. That part borders China. it's actually part of the ancient Silk Road, though currently the main pass is closed on the Chinese side.

JetPunk considers the illegally-occupied POK as mostly legal Pakistani land and hence it does border China.

By the way, I agree with you. :)

Unfortunately, most of the world considers PoK and CoK as legitimate Pakistani and Chinese territories.

Illegally occupied is crazy work. Btw the people living there wanna be a part of Pakistan, and I don’t understand why (as a Pakistani, the government is corrupt). Anyway, it belongs to Pakistan, as pakistan controls it
