This is hilariously wrong. Yes in a country of 1 billion people there are dodgy apartments, but then again in my country of 26 million people an estimated 60%

This is hilariously wrong.
Yes in a country of 1 billion people there are dodgy apartments, but then again in my country of 26 million people an estimated 60% of new apartments have flaws, big ones in the middle of Sydney have been deemed unlivable only a few years after being built.
China overbuilds entire cities and everyone mocks them for it, but a few years later those cities fill up and people conveniently forget about that.
Even the commentator who coined the term Ghost Cities admits they have become functional economic powerhouses.
> Reporting in 2018, Shepard noted that "Today, China’s so-called ghost cities that were so prevalently showcased in 2013 and 2014 are no longer global intrigues. They have filled up to the point of being functioning, normal cities"
