If you go to China you can see many of these highspeed trains are packed with people. We are talking about hundreds of millions of city people who can afford highspeed trains.
For those workers who cannot afford they can still use the older trains.
This highspeed train project will take decades to build and it will serve the country for decades more.
Highspeed trains are reducing air pollution and the reliance on cars.
Just look at Japan and Europe, they built their highspeed railway decades ago, when the income in Japan was still very low.

its good that they are building this and building that..but does it really benefit the real general public that only earn 1k a month...you can say that these trains are not for those workers...so then what's the point to build them if only the rich can afford themnews 發表於 2010/8/4 15:38
the ticket price is not that outrageous.
many urban workers can afford it
if you say that it's not built for farmers
then yes, it's not
but what's the problem?

Airports in Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou are among the busiest airports in the world. So there are lots of passengers even though the farmers can't afford yet.
mcjohnjohn, I know how you feel. But now is totally different, with the new Beijing airport terminal 3 that opened right before the 2008 Olympics. The new building is stunning in design and twice the size of Hong Kong airport.
Of course, the newly expanded Shanghai Pudong and Honqiao airports and Guangzhou airports are also very modern and efficient.
