I don't need to be sold on China and their incredible achievements. Have visited, enjoyed my time there.
It was meant as lighthearted snark, since the bridge collapse only just happened a few days ago. I'm sorry it didn't come across right.
- Cookingboy 9y agoYeah no problem, that makes sense, to be fair I've personally seen Chinese companies cutting corners as far as safety goes. I don't know what's more impressive, their capability to achieve super high quality at low cost or their capability to achieve unsafe quality at even lower cost...
- seanmcdirmid 9y agoThe fenghuang bridge collapse a few years ago caught my attention. Definitely corruption that took it down with 40+ workers. But I've travelled on these bridges and don't think they are unsafe. The expressway ones at least seem to be supervised much more closely.
