how did they choose those so called top 8 yet totally nonsense candidates?the OP did their stupid comparison and everyone can see it's wrong,that's why people come to this thread and give their version of the comparison.that's a forum is all about.it's not a news page here.

again true Chinese IQ shows through. Even after being told repeatedly that it is an article from CNN that the OP posted AND that nobody compared anything to anyone- just a mundane article of about big infrastructure projects. You keep going after the OP. It is you Chinese who flipped out...and started comparing.

everyone else is happy to see a project from their country on the list, never bothered to compare till you imbeciles started trolling with comparisons!

Btw , spare us your B-s charts, any figures from china are now known worldwide to be suspect.

the OP posted this article which is a comparison and open to be discussed.it's an article but also a comparison,the article compared all constructions and chose 8 of them which are totally nonsense,i m not the first person to point that out in this thread.again this forum is not a news page,people don't come to read news or articles,people come here to voice their opinions.and on your previous post you brought out IQ issue which I think has nothing to do with this thread.if you like to talk about this irelevant issue ,you can open a new thread.

In 2012 the presidents of Kenya, Ethiopia and South Sudan came together to launch the ambitious LAPSSET (Lamu Port--South Sudan--Ethiopia Transport Corridor) project.
The plans include an oil refinery, pipelines from South Sudan, transportation hubs for rail, road and air vehicles, plus a giant port for oil tankers. A number of tourist resort cities are also expected along the development's path.

Costs are set to come in at around $25 billion although concerns remain over the impact on the local environment. Lamu Port is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage site and the surrounding area is home to protected marine reserves and forests.

The Kenyan government has set aside $23 million for the Lamu section of the project while Reuters reported that a Chinese company had won the first tender to build three berths at the port in April this year.

Nice, best of luck to African nations.
