At any rate, we currently have mechanisms in the works to provide billions of dollars in aid to help Pakistan fight insurgents (Link Aid Scenario). The problem is that once the dollars leave our hands there's really no tracking them.
Since the goal and focus of Pakistan seems to be nuclear arms production (Link Arms Buildup) I'm fairly confident that most of the aid provided will be funnelled into that endeavor.

All of that being said China is not in a good position politically or socially to intervene directly, and drying up the sponsorship well only means that the Taliban has a less well-equipped enemy to fight. When has taking money away from a government under attack made it easier for that country to defend itself? I'll look into backing this assumption up later.
In fact, if you look at the Pakistani reaction to kidnapped Americans as to kidnapped Chinese, you will note the immediate and ruthless response by the Pakistani Army.
