I used to think only the West can create such wonder, until the Chinese Fast went online. Now CHINESE children dare to dream and hope for a better homeland. Its an omen, when we landed Chang'e-5,their dish collapsed. The government is in such decay that they can't even afford to repair Arecibo. Such a pity.
I actually went there while on assignment in Puerto Rico many years ago. Quite a sight. The Puerto Ricans are very proud of it and their rain forest, kept asking me to visit their rain forest but I got plenty at home.
scientific installations like Arecibo are wasted now on cultures that discriminate against Chinese applicants on the basis of race, and which persecute Chinese researchers and scientists.
The Chinese should offer some assistance for its repair.
From whom you gathered the information about the importance of infrastructural investment, or about the strategical important areas ?
Who approved the purchase order for the expert broadcasting his view in the official/oligarch connected news channels ?
It is easy and comfortable to leave the thinking to others, and accept the ideas fan our nationalistic / egoist feelings.
Harder to see the reality.
It's basic human decency to leave things better off for those behind you, wouldn't you say?
As for who manages the infrastructure work, that would be the CPC, and they're doing a good job. Many people at the time were against the HSR and Beidou projects when they first started because they lacked the strategic view that CPC leadership have. And yet now that Beidou is complete and China has more HSR than rest of the world combined people come to appreciate them and praise CPC for their foresight. Imagine China in the world today if she was still relying on GPS.
Given CPC's track record on these sort of thing, is there any reason why we shouldn't trust the CPC?
