Eagle # 1 User ID: 29216719 United States 12/07/2012 03:58 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | HE SAID " A Canadian company was building these large cities, NOT the Chinese government ! They are for Chinese AND outsiders who wish to live there. He said there were 100,000 people living in the 'complex' where he lives, and they have their OWN hospital, stores, etc. Mentioned about the GLP 'rumors' that they were built in the mountains, because there might be a Tsunami that displaces millions from coastal cities. Said YES, that was quite possible. Also said it was very cheap to live there. Eagle |

Eagle # 1 User ID: 29216719 United States 12/07/2012 04:03 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I speculate that they are looking forward to the population increase, since they are 'allowing' TWO children per family, instead of ONE ! Could help balance out the 70 -30 male to female (?) problem they now have, as they MIGHT stop Killing most of the female babies, BECAUSE the family wants a MALE HEIR ! Eagle |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 29247816 Hell why would China need to build another city?? They already have 60+ million empty houses. Indeed, build a few more homes fair enough... but to build a whole new city... why socialism, is the answer. |

futuremaverick (OP) User ID: 28589921 United Kingdom 12/07/2012 04:09 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | As growth slows, China's huge investment in infrastructure is looking ever harder to sustain, leaving a string of ambitious projects - towns, shopping malls and even a theme park - empty and forlorn. "We have spoken a lot about these ghost towns in Ireland and Spain recently [but China] is Ireland and Spain on steroids," says Kevin Doran, a senior investment fund manager at Brown Shipley in the UK. Surely it's time? |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 27827860 France 12/07/2012 04:11 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | According to one of the country’s biggest construction firms, 700 mountains will be flattened at a cost of £2.2bn to make way for the new city. Quoting: futuremaverick Five hundred square miles of land in the Lanzhou New Area, 50 miles from the city of Lanzhou, will be developed into a massive new development zone. [link to news.sky.com] Anyways, who needs those mountains ? They serve nothing, right ? WRONG. Mountains have a very important function on this earth. Like trees, or the ocean. Last time we removed whole mountains on this earth was some more thousand of years before Jesus was born. The result was, that large inondunations occurred, and land moved under the sea level. The Aral sea still exists and part of the indian plate are now under water, LOL. |
