The ribbons don't look to me like bamboo. Another commenter here (alexpotato) says the ones he observed up close were nylon.

  It's nylon, and safety measures are a joke. You will see often workers shirtless/no helm/no safety harness up there.

    I think safety measures always end up like that for things that can go well for years before having someone crash down. Most workers would probably go their entire career without experiencing a fall, with or without safety equipment.

      And life is cheap in China and India - the 2 most populous region in the world. There's also the work culture where workers will actually protest against safety measures - some safety measures like helmet or vests in construction are disliked because wearing these on hot and humid climates make the workers extremely uncomfortable. Some workers also see it as "molly coddling for sissies" because "in their experience they've only seen very few work injuries or death, and those who do get injured are 'idiots' who don't follow instructions".
