China begins construction on 1,213km railway worth $6.15bn
6 January 2015 | By Joe Quirke
China has begun work on a 1,213km railway that will link the two western regions of Qinghai and Xinjiang. The project is expected to cost $6.2bn.
Both provinces are sparsely populated by Chinese standards, but Sun Faping, the deputy head of the Qinghai provincial academy of social sciences, said the line was important owing to the oil and mineral resources in the area.
The railway will reduce the travel time between Golmud in Qinghai and Korla in Xinjiang from 26 hours to 12.
China is spending $25bn on five new railway lines and a total of $113bn on other infrastructure projects.
The railway is scheduled for completion in five years.
Ha ha. You must have forgotten the other South China Sea islands.
These islands - Yongxing (Woody), Yongshu (Fiery Cross), Chigua (Johnson South), Huangyan (Cuateron), etc are being developed and still work is in progress to increase their sizes.
