2010 to 2022 for 13km. That's very slow for China speed. What causing the slow of construction phase?

从2010年至2022年，全长13公里。这对中国的速度来说，非常慢。是什么导致了施工如此缓慢

Terrorism in that vicinity. Land disputes etc etc.

该地区的恐 怖主义。土地纠纷等。

@Strong Challenger terrorism is the the northern part of Nigeria so that's not even as excuse, but I think funding is the main issue

尼日利亚北部才有恐 怖主义，所以这不是借口，我认为资金不足是主要问题

Lack of funding by the Lagos state government

拉各斯州政府缺乏资金

This is just for demonstration I think. It hasn't really opened to the public yet. It was just commissioned as being finished, but they are still doing some trial runs to get ready for daily use.

我想这条轻轨只是为了展示。还没有真正向公众开放。刚刚完成调试，仍在进行试运行，以备日常使用。

Newstage

@Martinem Drillla no. There is no terrorism in Lagos. Hopefully that won't change. I believe this is just a demonstration.

不，拉各斯没有恐 怖主义问题。希望以后也没有。我认为这只是一个示范项目

​ @Strong Challenger Woh, please always confirm your info before commenting. There's no terrorism in that vicinity. The delay was due to politics and slow funding.

哦，请在评论之前确认信息。那附近没有恐 怖主义。延迟是政治问题，是资金问题

Strong Challenger

@smanslam1 Sorry. My comment is not meant to hurt our African brothers. I thought there were terrorism in Nigeria hence I thought it could be one of the main reasons.

很抱歉！我的评论无意伤害了非洲兄弟。我原以为尼日利亚存在恐怖主义，所以才会认为这可能是主要原因之一

How is it possible for poor nations to afford brand new Mass Transportation, even New York don't have these. What is going on?

穷国怎么修得起全新的电力轻轨，即使纽约也没有啊。发生了什么事？

Loan from China obviously, theres a reason why Nigeria is in so much debt

显然是中国贷款给他们的。尼日利亚欠下这么多债务是有原因的

New York uses metro which is 5x more expensive than the light rail Lagos got and the Lagos light rail is fully funded by Lagos state not borrowed

纽约地铁的造价比拉各斯的轻轨贵5倍，拉各斯轻轨完全由拉各斯州提供资金，而非贷款

@President News correct. The transit system in NY is quite old and extensive, although it stands in varying states of cleanliness, repair and renovation. While other US cities also have mass transportation systems, they are not nearly as developed or utilized to the same extent as those in Asia. Many major cities in China alone built extensive subway and train systems. Cities in China are also heavily connected by bullet train and passenger rail. It seems there is a difference in development philosophy, with Asian cities focusing on high density development, while North American cities gravitate toward low density suburban development, which affects how mass transit is established.

说得对。纽约的公交系统相当古老，有的需要维修，有的需要翻新。

虽然其他美国城市也有大众运输系统，但他们运输系统的发展和利用程度远不及亚洲城市。

仅中国的许多大城市就修建了大量的地铁和火车系统。

中国城市也通过动车和客运铁路紧密相连。

发展理念似乎有所不同，亚洲城市侧重于高密度发展，而北美城市则倾向于低密度郊区发展，这影响了公共交通的建立。

Nigeria is not poor.

尼日利亚并不贫穷。

I am not sure if NY sub is five times more expensive, but rather 5x more profitable (for some people).

我不确定纽约地铁的造价是否比纽约地铁贵五倍，但赚钱可不止5倍（对某些人来说）
