The Asian giant is investing in infrastructure as one

In the next three years, the Chinese government will invest over 300 billion dollars to expand the rail network in more than 20,000 kilometers of which 13 thousand correspond to fast trains that will travel over 350 mph on average.

This fabulous investment will impact not only on various travel times, changing even the concept of “travel day” but that will drive the integration of poor areas, sparking  greater mobility of the workforce  shrinking  by up to 70% the time transfer, further moderating the economic  and  social imbalance.

Cities such as Wenzhou in southeastern China, the capital of many major garment production industries have experienced, in the past, some anarchy in the mountainous coastal area will now be back with the connection of high speed trains to the port of Ningbo.
The high-speed rail will help medium-sized cities are developed and become more productive poles cutting the massive internal migration.

People in Shanghai will no longer have the problem of living in Jiangsu province whose travel distance is now between 20 to 40 minute journey, and where housing is much cheaper.

With the enormous investment the Asian giant becomes “small in distance” and very quickly will be again a world leader, perhaps the most important of this century.
