Do you think that "belt and road" is a short term plan?
Of course not. Building trade routes and railways to span Eurasia is thinking 50 years down the road.

You said "But as often China is capable of drawing a plan over 50 years and to execute it over that time frame". Can you give (multiple since you said "often") major 50 year plans, that China announced and then delivered on? I don't know all that much on that topic, and as I said before their most famous efforts at planning/reforming didn't turn out too good.
