Not only is China *building* fabulous infrastructure, it's also *maintaining* said infrastructure. Not only is China maintaining the infrastructure, it's also keeping it *clean* with meticulous cleaning crews. This is why a decades-old Chinese subway can still look pristine.

Yes, Western firms and experts made a lot of money in China. However China is developing its own expertise and equipments with time and now can provide the same for BRI.
Omg I went to the underground in london it's awful,noises the train made like it had not been oil for years, seem lot smaller, Compare to Hongkong or China And in the summertime its pretty hot inside. You can even find homeless people live inside.
I think a comparison between China and Western public transport is a bit waste of time as Western countries emphasis self sufficient while China emphasis on its people… period
I live in Portsmouth which is about 70 miles from London. I'm in my 40s and lived here all my life and got to the point of despair. I hate living in this country and wish i could leave. The UK is destined to be a 3rd world country. China is certainly going places.
To be honest even old Shanghai metro was built in 1993, London... a lot of infrastructure is from 19th century or early 20th... Also if you want to compare wealth you can compare salaries and GDP in a country, as maybe all that money that ''in the West'' goes for salaries, healthcare etc. is used up for fancy projects in other countries that maybe are useful and maybe that means something for future but it does not indicate much that there are still 10s of millions of piss poor farmers in China and overall GDP per capita in a country is at Bulgaria's level. If a huge amount of people live in one place there will be a ton of taxpayers and especially if they cannot afford cars or there is no existing car infrastructure like in USA or old railway infra like in UK, of course you will build new railways and metro... If we come back in 20 years maybe it will change and China's GDP overall is closer to West. As it is now, still way more Chinese emigrate to USA or maybe Europe, I dunno, than vice versa.
Where are you from? 1995? . Don't confuse "Wages" with cost or standard of living.... OR Quality of life. It's MUCH better in China. . (Btw, those "piss poor farmers" now have cooperatives and a dedicated 5G (soon to be 6G) comm system linking them directly to the national market, allowing them to set a LIVE auction for their products, which are despatched in minimal time for the best price. Try using the tools at your fingertips rather than guessing. (It's called "the internet") As for building infrastructure, we in the West CAN'T build at the same scale, or it seems to the same standard due to cost. Just watch over the next 5 years as China takes the same systems and techniques, building in Africa, raising THOSE countries from poverty. . What's the result going to be? They won't be buying from the West any more. . I'll misquote a line from An African leader... "When China comes to an African country, they bring a School, or a Hospital, or a Road. When "The West" (USA?) comes, they bring a Lecture" . Who do you think they want to deal with?
In the USA, a salary of 2,500 dollars is barely enough to survive, but not enough to save enough to have your own home or cover common expenses. In China, with a salary of 1,050 dollars (the national minimum wage), you can save almost 25% of your salary and thus be able to buy your own home. And we are talking about savings with a national minimum wage, imagine having the ability to earn a higher salary...
So China's infrastructure is better simply because China spends a larger percentage of its GDP on infrastructure, and not because capitalism was overthrown in China in 1949? Good to know, I was starting to worry!
@@2k42k5 Other countries don't invest more in infrastructure because they are still capitalist, but the people on UA-cam who say "China is doing great things," even though they are right, seem to be too simple-minded to offer any sort of political commentary. That was my point.
