Are going to see a new era of Western concessions? Now that people are becoming increasingly aware of China's huge progress and success (with its high speed train networks being a very objective example), I wonder if this is the start of a new pressure on Western countries to deliver infrastructure and welfare, much like the kind USSR created in the last century.

The west should thank its lucky stars THIS is how the global south is getting its revenge. It’s like that SpongeBob episode.

lenin-rage: “FINALLY! I’ve been plotting my revenge against you fascists for ages! Now that I finally got you where I want you…”

lenin-laugh: “I want help you build high speed rail!”
