I speculate that not-in-my-backyard-ism is much less of an issue in China, because people living nearby do not get as much of a say in whether to allow it.

With strong private property laws, fairly transparent government accountable in elections, employees with voices, and lawyers ready to do battle for any side of an issue, then there are many more considerations needed for any large project. That said, there's a whole bunch of other good explanations in this thread. Very informative.
