The drive to the port today was unbelievable. Mile after mile we passed complexes of half completed skyscrapers and empty high rise apartment complexes, seemingly abandoned elevated expressway projects. The scale of development is unreal. The lack of people to inhabit the development is perplexing.
Ningbo Port was equally impressive in scale. During our visit the port seemed under-utilized, yet there's several additional multi-billion dollar berths under development.
It's becoming clear that the Chinese believe in "If you build it, they will come."
