Meanwhile, back in the UK... unable to build a runway, let alone extend an exsting airport...

英国连一条跑道都修不起，更别提扩建现有机场了。

Cairene1, London, 2 days ago

So it's OK for China to build a massive, new, 4-runway airport on a massive scale, but not for the UK to add 1 runway to an exsting airport...???

新建一座拥有4条跑道的大型机场都不成问题，而英国在现有机场上加一条跑道都做不到。

Kontributor, Kirkintilloch, 1 day ago

So they can build a massive new airport in 5 years while UK politicians squabble about an extra runway at Heathrow or Gatwick for 15 years and end up doing nothing at all.

他们能在5年内建造一座大型机场，而英国政界人士却为希思罗机场和盖特威克机场增建一条跑道争吵了15年，最终一事无成。

SnafuonLex, New York, United States, 21 hours ago

China's progress is astonishing. To build this in 5 years is incredible. The UK is a embarrassment. The UK cannot even build a much needed extra runway at Heathrow. Pathetic.

的进步是惊人的。在5年内建成这座机场，真是不可思议。而英国就尴尬了，连在希思罗机场增建一条亟需的跑道都做不到。可悲。

Beiing opens one of the largest airports in the world at a cost of 13.5 billion pounds, yet a simple High Speed railway in the UK will exceed over 60 billion pounds.

斥资135亿英镑就建成了世界上最大的机场之一，而英国修一条高铁就耗资600多亿英镑

I was at this airport in May this year it was an amazingly swift and efficient. Well done to all involved.

今年5月我去这个机场看过，他们的施工效率太高了，令人瞠目结舌。

At least they get things done unlike our dithering, useless politicians.

Not much on DM impresses me but this is an exception. Looks like a pretty cool airport.

China builds the largest airport for little more than 14b while the UK has already spent 3b on consultations for HS2, also heard the other day it may cost 106b to build it! Taxpayers money going too waste.

建造全球最大的机场只花了140亿英镑左右，而英国光是商量修高铁HS2就已经花了30亿英镑，前几天还听说可能要花费1060亿英镑！纳税人的钱都被浪费了。

Built from every dollar store product you buy. Stop buying their junk.

是用我们的钱修建的，大家一起来抵制货啊。

Meanwhile, Heathrow's third runway is still being argued about. Twenty years on.

形成对比的是，希思罗机场增建第三条跑道仍在争论中，二十年都过去了。

The US has no money for such infrastructure projects. All the money, trillions of $s have been spent in lraq and Afghanistan and now they want to go into Syr1a and lran.

美国没钱修建此类基础设施项目。所有的钱，数万亿美元都投入到伊拉克和阿富汗了，现在又想要进入叙利亚和伊朗。

Sam, England, United Kingdom, 1 day ago

China goes full steam ahead while this country is getting further behind because of our dithering useless politicians. Makes our airports look like dumps.
