    Pretty cool. What does the planning and construction process look like that enables them to build out so quickly?

      As far as the motivation for these large projects, its noteworthy that the most common profession in the NPC, the highest governing body in the PRC, is civil engineers.

      I’ve seen a few shorter documentaries about how these massive projects are carried out, and it’s fascinating.

      by keep building them, instead of contracting for a single project and then shelve all the engineers for years, so every project is baby’s first project.

        China builds something like any other country on earth, but it’s china so it must be done in a bad way? Go back to reddit.
