The Chinese government has spent 17 billion dollars to build the necessary infrastructure to run at speeds of over 350 km / h. While the maximum speed of high speed train in Japan, the Shinkansen, and France's TGV, is 300 km / h, the Harmony express has reached speeds of 394 km / h. The price for Class 1 is $ 115, while class II is $ 72, which is a big sum for most Chinese.

China really keeps on moving and they are doing everything to prove themselves in the world. However, they are one in the world who gave a lowest wages to their people. How i wish they will also help those thousand Chinese poor people who are dying in hunger.
