Yes this is what I'm curious about as well especially with their high speed lines. I guess there are a few that were built in hopes of it helping certain cities but they are bleeding massive amounts of money for lack of use. Then you have all those ghost cities. We only hear about Chinas successes fot one. Their government controlled media doesn't exactly talk about the bad. Like the Three Gorges Dam leaking. Also since they way they take statistics a lot of statistics are suspect or outright lies. Since the local governments have such large incentives to flat out lie for their own gain... Like them being eco friendly - literally have entire fields of rebar with cotton on top spray painted green to look like plants are being grown to aircraft that survey them! At least that is the theroy on why they are doing it, but I've seen the videos.
