High-speed Chinese train kicks French, Japanese butt
UK, US not worth mentioning

Free whitepaper – Patch management
China's new high-speed passenger-train service broke world speed records
on its maiden run over the weekend.
According to a report in Monday's Financial Times, the Harmony express
train travelled from Guangzhou in Guangdong province to the
central-China city of Wuhan - a distance of 1,100km (684mi) - in under
three hours.
The previous rail service between the two cities took about 11 hours.
The Harmony has a top speed of 394kph (245mph), and during its inaugural
run it averaged 350kph (217mph), well faster than the 300kph (186mph)
"maximum service speed" of France's TGV and Japan's Shinkansen, aka
Bullet Train.
By contrast, the FT points out that it takes the US's Amtrak Acela
Express three and a half hours to traverse the 300km from Boston to New
York City - although that train has hit 217kph (135mph) in time trials.
China's Harmony express train isn't a mere demonstration project - it's
scheduled to make the cross-country trip 56 times per day.
"Expressways are not suited for China, which has large numbers of people
but little space to spare," government adviser Zheng Tianxiang told the
FT. "China should learn from Japan and Europe." By which he meant more
rail, and fewer expressways and freeways as exist in the US.
The Harmony system wasn't cheap. State reports have put costs at $17bn
over the system's four-and-a-half year construction period, but
government officials declined to confirm those numbers to the FT.
There are certainly unaccounted ancillary costs, such as the $2.4bn that
the city of Wuhan sunk into its new train station - which, like the new
station in Guangzhou, is an inconvenient hour-long drive from the city
center.
Tickets aren't cheap, either. First class runs 780 Yuan Renminbi (£71,
$114) and second class 490 (£45, $72). Also, the FT points out, the
state-run China Southern Airlines has responded to the competition by
dropping ticket prices to as low as 250 Yuan Renminbi (£23, $37) for
advance reservations.
But despite stiff price competition and inconvenient stations, Harmony
is a good bet. As Zheng implied, the inevitability of future fuel-cost
inflation and increased congestion make China's new high-speed rail
system a smart investment.
the High Speed Harmony train is better than High speed High
way
because High Speed train uses electricity .
but the strategy for the Chinese High Speed train is
to connect Taiwan with Fujiang province
through undersea rail tunnel double the length of
the EuroStar 's under the Channel between France and the UK.
With High Speed train tech goods from Taiwan can reach
the eastern province of China in quick time and in mass
volume . .
the benefits to the Eastern Chinese provinces will be great ,
given the high quality of the Taiwanese tech products , which
will be re-assemblied for exports.
the High Speed train is a Chinese strategy to gain Taiwan
's
production work forces spreading to eastern China .

Well, you see Mormon shirt 'n' tie gay-duos everywhere in Asia, yet how
many people really flock to them? Or Falun Gong proselytizers even in
Hong Kong? Again, think practical. Sure sure a few may grab their
pamphlets (I did actually, out of curiosity, in both cases, hahaha). How
many actually convert?
I agree though we should not underestimate religious menace and malice.
And for that reason China is doing a good job limiting religious freedom
and guiding its people even if superficially it may seem like overkill.
