    A bridge is a nice gift. Soviet Union tried giving Warsaw a metro but they failed to built it so they gave them this building instead:

    They built seven more in Moscow.

      You can criticize China for many things, but building infrastructure… is a bold choice.

          Those are private (or whatever goes by private with the ccp) developments, which cut corners for profit. Same happens in Italy for instance, on a lower height.

          Their public infrastructure (bridges, rail, hospitals) are not bad at all.

        They have had a ton of infra failures that never should have happened. Definitely fair criticism
