- crop_rotation 1y agoYes the current government is doing some things well and that does include road development which has been extensive.
- luckylion 1y agoIsn't 100km per day their goal while their record is at 37km on a single day? That's impressive by itself, but it's not quite the same (and those 5 year numbers would take them less than one year at that speed).
