The economic viability and cost for middle and lower income groups of China's high speed rail network
06/13/2006
The huge infrastructure investments -estimated at $300 billion- planned for China's high speed rail network began with a decision in 2004 and were accelerated with stimulus investments after 2008. The cost is about 555 yuan o($86) for the cheapest ticket on the 300 mile Beijing-Shanghai route or 9% of monthly disposable per capita income for urbanites. This creates questions of affordability and access for the majority of Chinese. Rail revenues will not be sufficient to pay for the investment and operation of the lines.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
