It's nearly impossible for illegal or legal Africans to get a green card unless they are top technicians, scientists and investors. Only several thousands foreigners are issued with a green card for the last decade. One American professor in my school have to renew his work visa every 2 years since his submission has been denied for many times.

Ha ha. This is the Chinese way to keep out the unwanted trash.

If the potential migrants are not good enough to meet your Chinese standards, sorry, they just don't get in.

We may not like it, but this is the reality.

Your country, your rules.

Well i know most Chinese students willing return China to develop, few stay in overseas. Many Chinese scientists in China ever studied in West Universities, they with advanced techs & skilles from West back to China and build China, since 1949 PRC established 1st group of our Chinese scientists just came from West Universities, today Chinese students still go outside and back inside no changed.

That history is very touching, those top-notch Chinese scientists were willing to go back to China which had literally nothing at that time.

The first number is the number of stations,
the second the number of all lines.

Top3 remain the same, Shanghai, Beijing and Guangzhou.
Top5-10 are reshuffled.
14 metro systems are in Coastal China, including HK, Taipei and Gaoxiong.
Central China, Western China and Northeastern China all have 4 metro systems respectively.
The newly opened metro systems of 2015 are, Nanchang and Qingdao.
The cities with a new line in 2015 are, Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Dalian, Wuhan, Chengdu, Hangzhou, Ningbo, Nanchang, Qingdao, etc.


I can't believe that with a fourth line opened in my city, she is not even Top10 in China, one rank lower than 2014.

Over 3000km all together!
It won't be soon to reach 5000km.
Every 2nd tier and some 3rd tier cities need metro!
Big one!

In the first half of 2016, Fuzhou Metro and Dongguan Metro will open!
