No other country is building new airports as fast as China. By 2035, their number is set to rise from 241 at present to 400. The government sees a need to catch up, especially in smaller cities.

Kein anderes Land baut so schnell neue Flughäfen wie China. Bis 2035 soll ihre Zahl von derzeit 241 auf 400 steigen. Vor allem in kleineren Städten sieht die Regierung Nachholbedarf. Auch das Zugnetz und die Autobahnen sollen stark ausgebaut werden. Werden die Infrastrukturpläne umgesetzt, bleibt der Bauboom ungebrochen.
