With cheap labor. You can build anything. Impressive nonetheless.

At these poverty rates they have been paying workers here we should have a totally rebuilt infrastructure if it was all about labor cost.

1.4 and a 1/2 billion shovels in the ground...all need to be fed
 
Wow, that's pretty cool!

When you don't have to ask for your population's permission to build something, it's amazing what can be done. Whenever I go to China, I'm blown over by the construction projects over there that would NEVER EVER get approved over here in the US.
