How wrong you are. The quality of your everyday goods is a good example of a nation's poor standards and lack of manufacturing capability.

Having been to China on a number of occasions (Nantong, Ningbo and Luwan), with my work as a Ships Officer, I have seen the poor standards and complete lack of quality control. For example you buy a set of drills and they range from being quite acceptable to absolute rubbish all in the one set.

It will take far more than your say so to change my mind.

Because off this dam, the day cicle is 0.6 microseconds longer!

If it keeps on rainin, levees goin to break,

When the levee breaks Ill have no place to stay.

Mean old levee taught me to weep and moan,

Lord, mean old levee taught me to weep and moan,

Got what it takes to make a mountain man leave his home,

Oh, well, oh, well, oh, well.

Dont it make you feel bad

When youre tryin to find your way home,

You dont know which way to go?

I think that comparing chinese products with chinese engineering is absurd. But, that being said I also feel that this project has disaster written all over it. Though I do take my hat off to the chinese for taking on such an ambotious project which (if successful) will provide clean (renewable) electricity to millions.

There is a difference between the incapability of a nation to produce high quality products and a nation choosing to produce low standard products in order to reduce the cost of production. A dam is not equivalent to a toy car or a shirt if this is what you're thinking. The lives of millions of people depend upon the quality of the dam and since we know that China is perfectly capable of high quality production we can safely assume that they're not too stupid to not realise that either.

@dycarbon1 I never said anything about scrapyard materials, but if that is the case, that's another nail in the coffin. What I said was that the materials were not upto world standards and having witnessed the complete lack of quality control in Chinese products plus seeing the work standards at some Shanghai ship repair facilities, all I can say is that I pity for those living downstream.

@ozzirt

Then by god I am proud of my country for being able to send people into space by using nothing but scrapyard materials.

@dycarbon1 do you have the slightest idea about the poor workmanship and complete lack of quality control in the manufacture of Chinese articles? Multiply that by a billion, and you will start to see the possibillities for a monumental disaster at some time in the future.

Like many Chinese things, it looks great on the surface.

I only hope for the sake of those living downstream, that I am wrong. But if I were a betting man I'd keep my money in my pocket.

[ozzirt]

It's a massive project, and it looks great, but all I can think of, is that I hope their workmanship and concrete quality is far better than much of the rubbish that they export to western countries, or else the people living downstream have a lot to worry about in the future.
