Featuring the world’s biggest airport (UAE); it’s tallest building (Azerbaijan); it’s fastest train (Japan); it’s biggest shipping canal (Nicaragua); it’s greenest (UAE) and most futuristic (South Korea) cities; it’s most elaborate expressway network (China); and it’s most powerful nuclear fusion reactor (France).
Great video man. I love these kind of topics.
Alex Clark Thanks, Alex...it is a lot of fun to learn about!
Do you teach guitar by chance on a different channel? I think I recognize your voice
steven gerrard Nope. But now I'm curious, which channel?
The Daily Conversation Hey keep doing what your doing keep doing on devolping countries who are become modern like India, Vietnam, Russia, or Nigeria.
Intro: United Arab Emirates (Dubai)
2:12 Songdo (International Business District) South Korea
4:44 Nicaragua's Grand Canal
9:08 Masdar City, UAE
12:32 Japan's Maglev High-Speed Rail
15:16 Khazar Islands (Azerbaijan)
18:23 Iter (international scientific project)
20:57 Chinese Expressways
23:41 Delhi-Mumbai Industrial corridor
26:20 King Abdullah / Economic City in Saudi Arabia
Great video btw ☺️
Important comment
We live near Songdo. It's a great place to live, but the development has slowed down due to overall economic downturn. However, the parks, trash system, shops, entertainment areas, etc are as modern as the video says. The food is becoming more international too. Overall it's a welcome reprieve from the sardine-like conditions in Seoul.
+agasarang Thanks for your comment!
+The Daily Conversation hey dude when I grow up I am creating a bussness thats better than microsoft and start building the most green safe biggest futuristic place in the world my dream is a green world where peaple and nature work together
+Conquerer TV
Don't you meen peepol?
+agasarang ... it looks like a paradise.

If America's politicians weren't so busy putting the economy through the shitter and spending more and more money on the military, the USA might be able to contribute to all this advancement.
***** Why would the USA in any of its own interests want to contribute to an Arabic city halfway around the world?
Direwolf56
Not what I meant. I'm saying that America could be sponsoring its own mega projects if our politicians would actually spend money on things that matter.
qwervqwe vqwevqwev
I know it's clear that the global economic center is going to shift to the Middle East and Asia and there's no real way to stop it. I just feel that the west doesn't need to decline in order for this to happen. Especially in America with all its economic and industrial potential. It's just being squandered.
So true
MishuTaste Haha you actually think the US is gonna pay back that debt? Why do you think they've built such a huge military? It's sad but the truth is... those countries are never seeing their money again
very knowledgeable & best thing I've watched on TH-cam in a while
+Haaz Harris Thanks haaz!
+The Daily Conversation you make one of the best videos in youtube
+Haaz Harris the black man needs to secure himself in the western hemisphere through black nationalism.
+MrCollegeSmart Call Louie the Great!! Rabble rousing is his business. WHO?? You know, the Nation of ISLAM guy!
I agree
I suddenly feel much more optimistic about the future. :)
I do too
Trump
Jonatan Borowicz dont
Global warming. Rising sea level.
The-terminator Make america great again! Trump 2020
He said 2027 at the time 20:27.
Wow! Good eye.
The Daily Conversation Thanks!
what a coincidence
half-life 3 is confirmed
TJDreed ikr
finally! someone who is as informative as Wikipedia, i love the narration, it is expertly done.
i hope you create more educatiional videos like this one. learned more in 31:07 minutes than i did with 4 years of high school.
Thanks! I hope you find college more informative ;)
yeah it was good video
What did you do, crack and LSD throughout the 4 years?
26:20 - "If that's his legacy, he deserves to have a city named after him" ~ The Daily Conversation.
Aw, that was so nice of you to say of him :)
It's sad that America don't make that list. The only American project mentioned in the video is the California high speed rail, and that was only to show how unambitious it is compared to Japan's maglev. I can think of many megaprojects that America needs to build.
Meanwhile, to any megalomaniac kings or businessmen who want to build a hi-tech modern city in your image, we will give you Flint Michigan, do whatever you want with it.
America has very small Mega projects the only one that's pretty good is the California one and there's this one in Texas that is said to decrease the drought
Sigh, all of the countries mentioned were developing nations that are experiencing massive growth as they move from the stone age to the information age. We've already done that.
David Welge
I don't usually comment on videos, but I think your opinion needs correction. If you think that France or Japan are living, as you say, in the stone age, you might have a problem. Yes, the Azeri project is a bit too much for their economy, and it is probable they won't do it actually. And I don't believe in India's project, also.... But China's Junk project seems realistic, which, by the way, isn't, as you say, in the stone age.
OSHO ITER (and DEMO, which they forgot to mention) is probably the most important of all of them and is being built near Marseilles in southern France, so don't feel too left out (:
David Welge You're extremely ignorant. A little travelling and exposure will do you good sir.
I wasnt expecting to see that anti Chinese propaganda in there I just wanted to see cities of the future and mega projects
what did you expect? it's an american making the video. no matter how unbiased they try to be, they live in america so are hugely influenced by it.
What anti-Chinese propaganda? The only mildly negative thing about China's project was that the expressway system is mostly made of toll roads. The video spent far more time slamming Azerbaijan and Nicaragua. Don't know about Azerbaijan, but I *completely* agree about Nicaragua's canal being an awful, awful thing.
EDIT: Ah, you're talking about the Nicaraguan project. That's less of a criticism against China and more criticism against Nicaragua's government. The Sandinista party is a left-leaning party, which makes that canal project akin to Fidel Castro allowing McDonald's to set up shop in Cuba.
danixdefcon5 Well said, thanks for your clarifying comment.
Well said noticed that myself there was not a word about how the dam will be built and absolutely everything about the political background and who accompanied China. An absolute shame I was more interested in seeing future projects than political propaganda
danixdefcon5 the Panama canal is near it's use by date, with the surge in the post panamax container ships who are too big to go through the panama canal it presents the golden opportunity for Nicaragua to be the center of trade in the western hemisphere.
i wonder if one day some of todays technologies would be forgotten by people of future, like how the cultures and technologies of the ancient times are unknown for us. i hope i made sense :)
This is the most informative video I have ever watched!
***** Wow, thanks!
The Daily Conversation same for me, this makes me feel like I've been living under a rock I'm 15 btw
Jerrad Rashliegh he's ignorant so therefore I jus ignored his comment. Many kids my age won't be on utube watching videos like this hence their lack of knowledge compared to mine.
***** Hey man I didn't mean it that way
knowledge doesn't have to do with skool work only.
I'm pretty sure the things in this video won't be coming on a test
***** ignore that guy
he's a weirdo with no life that trolls ppl on the internet 😂😂😂
This has to be one of the best developed videos in the whole TH-cam.
After all these projects i cant even imagine what future technology holds for us....
Really glad to be born in this era
This is what I like about China: It's an ambitious country and it's not afraid of undertaking colossal endeavors. I'm not Chinese, but for some reason, their tremendous levels of ambition give me goosebumps, and frankly, make me proud to be human again. We need more countries that are willing to take such risks for the sake of moving humanity forward if we are to reinvigorate a sense of purpose and pride within our species. Somewhere throughout the middle of the 20th century, "we" (mainly the West) lost our way and started focusing on celebrities, fleeting pleasures, and vapid entertainment rather than inspiring acts of human bravery and ingenuity. We need a sense of purpose if we are to get out from the moral rut we're in now. At least, that's how I feel.
You forgot to include lego castle im building for my hamster.
I've climbed one of the volcanoes on Lake Nicaragua and that's pretty sad that the beautiful tranquil lake will get bisected into a shipping lane. I'm sure the locals won't be happy about that.
Aunt Jemima I wonder if the project is still happening because for such an ambitious thing, I haven't heard a single whisper from the US media.
Alex Boyer Not much on the Wikipedia article. Geographically, if it has to happen that's probably the best place for it but I think environmental groups will have something to say first.
It's unlikely that it'll go ahead, at least for the foreseeable future.
22:20 so you take a picture of São Paulo's traffic jams to talk about the increasing number of cars in China?
Could you do another video on this topic?
***** Sure!
The Daily Conversation You are completely bias, you mention the negative impacts of Nicaragua and Azerbaijan, but you dont say anything about the slavery and human rights abuses used to create those cities in Saudi Arabia and the UAE. You completely ignore about the fact that so many millions of Indians would be evicted out of there homes and face gentrification when megacities are developing. This video is so bias and pathetic..... you really need to pick it up
Mahtlahtli I see your point but that's not what the videos about.
Alex Ogden if its not the video's objective to discuss the negative impacts of megaprojects, then why did he mention them in Nicaragua and Azerbaijan?
Ya i guess he shou
This was very interesting! Subscribed !! You have great content TDC!!!
Yusuf Omar Thank you Yusuf.
The Daily Conversation
Same, this and one of your videos I've watched previously is just amazing. I really liked it. Subbed.
It's too expensive to live in Dubai and not enough White Collar Jobs.. I couldn't imagine how simple people can make a living there.
farhan Yes I know.. That's what I'm saying.
Joey Mantka im in dubai and its hard took us yeahs to live in dubi
Joey Mantka dentist
Joey Mantka They don't
with the money you currently earn do you think u can afford a lambo or ferrari?
Welp, I'm moving to Songdo
Let us know what it's really like ;)
Songdo & Masdar are the most interesting cities in this doc.
AndroidDoctorr
Ditto!
I not believe it 😱😱😱😱😱
At first I thought: "Meh, just another Top X vid about stuff, mediocre.." But then I was really surprised! Well done, guys! Nice information!
Manachtron Sweet! That's much appreciated...
Manachtron very true indeed.
The Daily Conversation , you just get another subscriber :)
Amazing video. Professional and yet very engaging. Nicely pace as well. 2 thumbs up.
This really makes me think about what the world will be like in 15 years... I'll still be young by then and I really do look forward to all of the technology we'll have.
My god if and when all these idea's/cities are built god, this just makes me happy to be born in this generation
WE are going to have:
-Amazing MegaCities
-(going off topic but) Technology going beyond our imaginations
Wonder what my life will be like by 2025 when I'm 26 years old.
I'll comment back on this when It's 2025
cya till then people.
Hopefully it will be s good time to be in our 20s XD especially for those graduating from university
TheRobofriend Then again, megacities might by definition not be 'amazing' to live in - the skyline crowded by huge monoliths of banks and corporations that look as if they could be built in any place on earth - everywhere looking the same due to globalisation - streetlife that is replaced by 'malls' and indoor mega centres. It appears we are heading towards a future of less valuable human interaction, more worship of money and then, hiding around the corner, the unimaginably terrible effects of global warming that was produced by all of it.
We certainly live in interesting times, but I think we'll be in quite a bit of strife sooner or later if this is the outlook. People like feeling human, and the environment likes being conserved.
TheRobofriend
And even with this new technology, these new Amazing Megacities™ (which would be bursting from overpopulation), flying cars, high-speed internet, and more, humans will be killing each other, nations will be at war, etc... Nothing can change the fact that humans are animals and that their primary goal is the continuance or survival of their identity, whether genetic (e.g: animals killing each other over mates) or other (as with ultranationalism).
Don't worry, be happy! LOL
At least you're born in a time where the economy is good enough to provide sufficient food for even the lazy and laws are enforced efficiently enough to maintain good social order. As for me, I'll have to wait some more until I become 26...
TheRobofriend Technonolgy going beyond our imaginations... could be our worst nightmare. COULD be... just research a little in Artificial Intelligence and youll know what I mean.
I will be 24
I've been to Masdar I like it XD
Jay Jay Puskas Quaresma Nice!
***** You should move back I honestly believe this Country is incredible!! No Tax also it's a very diverse, modern, and beautiful country.... and what's amazing is Abu Dhabi and Dubai are so different they attract different types of people!
***** I'm sorry i didn't realize you were a young Kid... but not to worry everyone can always achieve the goals they have in life no matter what those goals are... so just keep your chin up and take steps to achieve your goals, dreams and ambitions :) everything is possible !
I really value the time it takes to put one of these together. Great info and visuals! Subscribing.
My fiance and I almost vacationed in Dubai.
However; when researching hotels and which area to stay in, we realized that (considering our heritage; Brazil & USA) most likely we would be better off going to Australia or the Caribbean.
The freedom to kiss my fiance without the fear of being incarcerated, whipped or the uncomfortable act of our beheadings was the main factor. But there were several other factors; like the possession/consumption of alcohol, my fiance operating a motor vehicle (which apparently can even include turning on a stereo) female head-scarfs in public and restrictions on public dancing).
We were married almost 8 years ago, so I'm sure things are different now.
Please be careful and plan accordingly so you can fully enjoy your vacation!
Wow, inspiring. I feel like this single video expanded my view of the world immensely.
Thank you! That's what we were trying to do: expand people's worldview a little bit.
It's good to see Asia rise again. We've been the dominant figure throughout history, and I'm extremely happy to see development to this extent become a reality within a few decades. I'm especially happy for the likes of Dubai and India.
Who knows maybe America will stop funding their damn army...
+Mughal-e-Azam Africa was actually the first dominant figure since we all came from there.... 4000 years ago, The Ancient Egyptian Empire was the most dominant empire of the old world.
Cell Jr. True dat.
+Cell Jr. Ancient Egypt was the most dominant empire of the old world? I'm not refuting the genius and architectural masters of the ancient egyptians, but there have been larger empires, ie; the persian empire in the ancient world. However it is just an objective fact that Asia dominated as a whole in terms of economics, overall wealth and commerce etc
Mughal-e-Azam I'm not saying there hasn't been "larger empires" in terms of size, but when was the last time you heard people talking about Ancient Persia in such high sophistication and esteem?
Ancient Egypt is one of, if not The Greatest Ancient Civilizations that we currently study and learn about today. They are also responsible for a lot of things we use/do today. That was my initial point....
Ancient Egypt was a large super power, long before other Greek, Roman, and Persian civilizations sought to invade and take it over.
the creativity named “azerbaijan tower”, thanks for this late night content
Can you explain why americans use the imperial system even though they're the only ones in the world that use it?
i cri evry tim someon us imeryal systm.
Sierra Leone also uses it plus one other country, I think it's Burma but still it's ridiculous for anyone to use imperial.
***** Maybe t it could also boost trade and other professions to make more because they are using a simpler measurement system.
***** again greedy corporations ruin people's lives.
+tim patin Not simple enough to do without using a calculator. And a completely unneccessary hurdle to international communication.
tim patin there's an even better sollution: ADOPT METRIC ALREADY! welcome to the XXIst century!!!
The middle east is kinda weird. It's either like Iraq or Syria, a war-torn third world country, or it's like the UAE or Dubai, a petrolocratic billionaire city donaldtrumpopolis.
JmmiP 20 Dubai is a city in the UAE. You should’ve said the UAE and Qatar or Saudi Arabia or Kuwait.
Yee Yee that’s disgusting
either “dog” of usa or not
@@UberAl2008 are you DUMB?
U guys got me hooked on this video. Thank you great documentary, :) SUBSCRIBED
Thank you, welcome to TDC!
You forgot to mention China's development/revival of Silk road network.
My Syrian friend said his father lived in Dubai for working. He was so much lucky that he gained a large profit due to their impressive technology.
This is excellent. Thank you.
Thank you!
The Daily Conversation america got no type of plan for the future they all money whoring
Ave Boii KB - Sure the US has plans, the right will have us using more oil, more coal and poorer workers to make the rich richer and the continued imports of everything from China and more costly and unfunded wars! More religious coercion and more guns!
Ave Boii KB In the Jews pockets. You guys have sooo Much debt that you can't even thin of a bright future. Germany was in the same situation about 80 years ago, with a lot of debt and jews> after war Germany paid all the expense of the war and now is one of the greatest countries in the world. You put all of them in the high ranking positions and now you can't even think of the future, except paying taxes and wars with all the nation of the world. I am not antisemittic but this is the truth., Wars, wars wars. Every american is targeted as long as he leave the US. You can't win all the wars all the time. One day US will be a forgoten empire, justlike Italy and Greece these days. Probably not in our lifetime but not far away...
This video was truly amazing! But I wonder one thing.. Why is no western country, mainly thinking of Europe and North America throwing money into this kind of megaprojects? (Apart from the fusion research that is)
Two reasons;
1) We have much empty space like the middle eastern countries have. They have vast empty deserts, most of the west doesn't, so it would mean building over natural habitats.
2) We don't need to. Most western countries are already developed, therefore don't have a booming population.
3) Most middle eastern countries have a small population, so they don't need to focus spending on health care or similar expenses.
4) Cheap labor law are strict in western countries. Not so much for Eastern countries.
***** Thank you, really wellput answer! I think you're right about everything except your third point. Yes for example Saudi Arabia and United Emirates have small populations but China and India?.. Not so much.. I it's more a question of how much of the countires budget goes into a health care system. And I think many of these countries spend less money on healthcare systems than countries in the west do, counting in percent that is.
+MACK
VERY simple! The west is on there way out!
1 Look at manufacturing.
2 Look at our corrupt government, they have stolen every penny our citizens have.
3 They have regulated our businesses to the point they can't afford to do it competitively!
4 If our government is left as is we will be blown off the earth by some one!
I could go on and on..
+MACK this was super interesting for sure! We don't have that much money to throw at that stuff because we waste it all policing the world, helping other countries, not taking care of ourselves, and overspending on welfare! We have space to spread out people also as Emilo stated below! They have to build these tall, high buildings where we can spread out not up!
+MACK It's like asking, why are no western countries getting more optic fiber? Because to upgrade the infractructure to latest models, you have to tear out the older infrastrucutre.

Excellent video! , Just suscribed
Thanks Franklin, glad you're aboard!
The world needs this new canal period !!!!!!!
1. no
2. this was made in 2014
3. the canal was cancelled
I want to live in a beautiful, varied, cultured mega/super city. It would be so cool to have the city centre ('The Core') comprised of different areas and city styles - e.g. a section of this core being like Las Vegas and parties/raves down every street, shopping/cultural section of the centre, an area of the centre with mansions and parks, an area of the centre for key industrial functions, and new 'types' etc. I don't know, obviously it's pretty much a fantasy, but it would be so damn cool.
I would say that's like las vegs mix with Dubai mix with los angles
I don't like city life anymore because of the high stress living with crime, violence, congested traffic, increase rents, lack of suitable jobs for mature people and overcrowding transport system. And I don't like noisey parties or crowds either.
Iran Mountains and forests are amazing in this year because we have a lot of rainfall ,So if you are a backpacker try to travel to Iran
Look, I'm only 11, so don't critizise me about this, but future cities will probably never come true until like, 2037? Well, cuz you see, our world is getting very technological. And I feel like we've just ended an era. I'll call it, the Megadream Era. I call it that cuz, it's felt like, a megadream. Anyways, by 2019, we'll probably enter the next era, the Technological Era. We've made like insane cities, impossible breakthroughs and etc. We've felt like we're back in the 1920s, where nothing is impossible, for a while. By 2043, we start to enter the Second Dark Era. I say this because, corruption, politics and war. Our world will enter extreme risks of global warming. Oil, will almost be drained. Overpopulation, starting to absorb entire countries. Revolutions, breaking out like wildfire cuz, fears. And by then, you realize it, it's been almost 100 years after World War II ended, and guess what Hitler said. He said: By 100 years, a new threat, will arrive, and we'll start to enter the next era, the Nightmare Era. Entire countries, devastated. Wars, causing hundreds to panic. Genocide, thousands, dead. This point, humanity now needs to work, because that's the only way to save them, from this crisis..........
Pls, do not hate, this is just a theory, a depiction or something like that. History is always a surprise. Don't hate, pls..
Filipino Mapper in other words, modern depressions?
I spotted something in the documentary that kind of is misleading when you talk about the difference in the cost for the maglev train in Japan and the high speed rail system in California you show that the prices are clearly different but not the exact reasons for the project being so much more expensive. I haven't done any intense research or anything but I do think that the high cost of the maglev project in Japan is because they have a much more mountainous region that they are probably making new tunnels for in order to get their train through to all three of their cities. When I looked up the map for the project for the California high speed rail it seems that they are following already developed land ( like following along highways ) so there wouldn't be much in the way of the environment in their way. They may just be using already laid out tracks which could significantly lower the costs for construction and just putting a new high speed rail car on them. In the case of building a completely new track to show the technology to the US I imagine it could be well worth it to have maglev trains. Thank you if read this btw TDC really love your videos
-From a Nerd
+Fox Good point, the topography has also caused Japan to have some of the longest railway tunnels in the world (which don't come cheap)...
+The Daily Conversation I just think that trains could play a much bigger role in public transportation and cross state transportation in the US, that's not just subways confined to only the biggest cities. It could become a huge business and create some good jobs with a decent road for it going through the country so I would love to see something like maglev trains start to become popular in the US and help us to move away from cars that aren't needed on the roads for short travel across cities so we can be a bit cleaner in our fuel consumption ( because the world's second worse emitter of greenhouse gasses is still really bad in my eyes) . Its just a dream but maybe the world might like what they see when Japan finishes their chuo shinkansen
+The Daily Conversation also just saying the Elon Musk's hyperloop is something truly amazing that could improve this technology even more. Possibly making a trip across the entire US a 3 hour trip one day. Can't wait for the future
+Fox Japan also need build the most stable railway because the land is very risky for the earthquake. Japan has to double the safety when compared to others.
Andsen Phren, I LOVE the look of the trains. I hope that we get some sexy looking High speed trains coming down to Downtown Miami when they complete that project in South Florida.
The UK is not as bad off in the technology stride as many think. London is well on the new rise of looking futuristic. I do miss London's complete historical nature but the futures the future and the populations growing faster than it ever has. Super cities will be a norm in the next decade.
All this technological advancement and they're still wearing sheets.
[Insert hate comments below]
***** The reason they are wearing sheets is because it's extremely hot there! The sheets are thin, so that it doesn't get hot; it covers their whole body, so that they won't get sun-burned; they wear white, so that the sun is reflected and they remain cool. It's not that they aren't improving their wardrobe, it's cause they literally live in the desert and this is the best wardrobe for such a climate.
***** i think wearing sheets are really cool。

Best video ever.
I swear china embracing the car seems really dangerous
lol
The traffic there is no joke though. I've been there. It is really beautiful country, but once you step out on the streets you'd wish you had more eyes xD. It is really surprising that there aren't that many accidents.
I think there is a scope for a large empire to form in Africa.
An update on these projects on the eve of 2020 would be really awesome!!
Dubai is not the entire UAE
And only 3% of all Dubai's revenues come from the oil industry
Dubai is always first!

Let's say you are puting trash in the bin.. and accidentally lose your wedding ring or phone in it.. drop it if you may.. and it's gone!
and wtf why is iceland yellow its so corrupted government it sickens me..
+Gaui VEB (Ixiuz) i think you'd have to flush the trash away, like a toilet. so you could recover it
+Gaui VEB (Ixiuz) Iceland isn't corrupt at all...
Good point. Something that would need to be addressed. Or a dumb kid crawling into the bin.... Lol
+Gaui VEB (Ixiuz) lol Iceland is the most safest country in the world
Whos watching 2017? Its new years in japan c:
the modern city idea thing is exactly what happens in watch dogs, if someone were to hack into the system, they would have control of the city
Noe Horowitz just got back from game theory
MEANWHILE, BACK IN THE GOOD OL' USA.... we can't even keep our infrastructure from crumbling. Long gone are the days of the massive projects like the Hoover Dam, the Interstate Highway System, and giant urban subways. FAR FROM IT - funds are lacking just to pave the ever-growing number of potholes in your neighborhood streets. AND, if you ARE lucky enough to get Federal dollars for a project, it takes double the anticipated time and triple the budget ! WASHINGTON DC needs an enema !
+Mary A I'm sorry to say this, but in the near future, the USA will no longer have this image of strenght, it's government is bankrupt, it has so much debt and it did nothing but the opposite to help it, taking part in wars and foreign conflicts funding different countries and organizations for its own alliance agenda forgetting about its own internal huge problems. Managing a landscape as vast the united states is HUGE and requires a vast attention and constant funding, funding that was and still is wasted elsewhere.
I'm sorry but the good old'USA has outlived its days, and is ruined by its leaders. Americans will say that they had nothing to do with the decisions of their leaders, but what have they done to change them anyway ?
thanks for showing me the beautiful places

Can anyone explain to me why Asian and Middle Eastern skyscrapers seem more futuristic and advanced than European and American skyscrapers? I'm not trying to be racist if you think I am but it's weird
it's not weird，the ecnomic of far east（china korea and japan） =（even larger than）europe=north america，middle east country have lots of oil under ground，but the gdp is far less than the far east
Countries focusing on their EDUCATION - esp. kids & so on, LEAD for the future. Look at China, Asia, S-Korea, Russia, Singapore & those in the highest comparisons. Obviously THAT will determine a country's future success unless shot down by corruption. Have a great Dec. season & holidays - all religions please!
Must really appreciate all that beauty in architecture globally but cannot answer your question - probably more MONEY available in Asia & mid Eastern parts? Racism would be VERY short-sighted I think. Great discussion, thanks. The imbalance in military spending seems to be a constant REALLY BAD human folly - when will leaders & us humans learn & GROW? - REALLY heartbreaking
jack i have a question why do all Chinese on youtube say west evil and China is aryan? ?? like always where ever I watch video there is Chinese (buthurt)guy saying how west is bad and China is good.
I think because the West focuses on more important things such as education. And education determines the future of a nation in many respects, not high rises.
In 2004 Dubai was literally a plain desert in 2009 it's like seeing a different land
Getting to airport fast is amazing, I was in Miami and live in NYC and you can get to the airport in 10 minutes in Miami while it is absolute hell getting there in NYC.
HOWEVER, i think the future is for airports to be away from the cities because it will be possible to build a very fast train from airport to the center of the city. Not now but say 30-40 years from now it will probably be possible to get from JFK to Mid town on a train that runs pretty fast (you can not do it now, you can get there on a train that is slow and runs thru an area where you can get stabbed or mugged).
Saudi Arabia is doing mush to be a successful country
Thanks for this video
When I think social progress, the first country that comes to mind is Saudi Arabia.
Are women allowed to go around like that without covering their face/head in King Abdullah's city? Something I was wondering about...
Perceiz yes of course, its just a rumour that foriegn people spread and think that women should wear hijab, thats actually false.
PG3600 A foreign woman was arrested few days ago because she twitted a pic of herself without a Burqa/Hijab.
Rohan Shinde Are you muslim?
Such a knowledgeable person you are. Great video, that kept me watching from start to finish. Had no idea the video was half an hour long until after I finished it.
So where the hell is America in all this?
In Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, etc....
+Enigma Seeker Helping lead the world in propagating and advocating violence and environmental destruction for profit. Working on our consolidation of wealth problems... Wondering how the government is gonna stay in business through the end of our fiscal year... holding some of the most moronic elections on the planet... The usual.
+Matt Redman haha you're a funny guy
America is too busy making out with a mirror.
+Enigma Seeker Yeah...there twerking
I am Indian in 2016 on 25.00 that project exists under Delhi-mumbai industrial corridor and dholera city, fintech city.
Great video! Subcribed
Incredible.
Thank you for sharing this information with us.
"Donald Trumps fantasy", if only he knew what was to come in a couple years

you mean peace between north and south korea?
my trunk triple in length
PhotoGeorge I hope you are joking. Shut off the "news" and pick up a history book.
Weird. This is 4 years old now and it is the first time I ever heard of the Nicaragua Canal project.
Great video. Very well done and very informative
"Supposedly democratic". Yeah, and what does that make the US ? Cheers from Oslo, Norway. an _actual_ democracy.
+Jan Hansen
I caught that too. The US is an oligarchy now. It's not even a constitutional republic anymore and my guess is that it will never be one ever again. The US is now fated to be some sort of totalitarian Imperium masquerading as a 'democracy'.
Spot on. Sadly.
Central America is on a whole other level. I understand you're trying to criticize the us, but saying it is no better than these countries is ridiculous.
@Grug Crusader it’s been two years i hope you get this notification, come back to see what you wrote and cringe
Great video, You need more stuff like this...it's the reason I subscribed
That ITER thing sounds like the cause for the end of the world.
well then you quite obviously don't know physics ;)
The Common People I apologise if it came off as assholish at all, I didn't mean for it too :/
Those roads are like my roads in cities skylines
best documentary i had ever seen!!
22:20 That's in Brazil, São Paulo, not China.
Miguel Angelo Santos Bicudo Exactly.
hey I forgot kuwait's silk city
These videos are fantastic! So full of knowledge and future ideas I didn't even know existed. I could watch them endlessly!
Wong Jing needs to brush his teeth and check out that red part of his hand
That ITER project is the one truly global. "Harnessing controlled fusion energy", sounds wow. If successful, major energy need of whole Earth can be solved.
Now, this is how countries should come together and help grow World, instead of individually. So, proud India is part of it.
To harness the energy of a star. That's the type of stuff you see a super villian do.
Why is he talking about miles when in these countries they use km? Another documentary made for Americans only.
+Johnny Hopefully that changes soon. All we need to boost the metric influence in the US is to override the law that makes metric only packaging illegal. Once all of the companies start removing the imperial units it's game over.
I'm an American and fully understand the Metric system. If you're not American and don't get the Imperial system, than that's your own fault. Quit bitching.
+jacobdot456 Good for you. I am not bitching. I live in Canada and I fully understand both systems. I am just thinking about all those people in the rest of the world who do not understand the imperial system. And they don't have to. The USA is pretty much the only country in the world who is not metric.

great work! thank you for it
I think I'd love to live in China or the UAE type countries if there was more freedom and more western world influences. As well as less corruption and government power/control. They just seem like really nice sounding/looking places to live in the upcoming years of world advancement and technology development and everything, while places like the US, Canada, and Europe as well as smaller places like Japan and Australia seem to have nothing going for them and are stagnated.
IDK, what are you guys' thoughts? {{especially my fellow Americans}}
TBH the UAE is very western in many aspects. Trust me, it's a very great place for a foreigner to live and there's many Western people already living in the UAE. Check it up. And yeah the Gov does have control but again, its one of the most awesome places to live in and I believe the future will be a testament to that. And UAE nationals are also very welcoming to Western people so yeah man, do try moving there, if not stay for some time.
Quilliam Attari But what about the women? And what you wear? Do they police that or anything or oppress women with it and stuff? {{I'm not trying to discriminate or stereotype, I literally don't know.}}
Hazardous-Nebula Lol it's OK, and I think you're getting mixed up with Saudi. The UAE is very liberal and open when it comes to women and women have bigger roles in the UAE too. And I believe, women are not allowed to wear bikinis in open apart from at the beach. And kissing in public, that's all.
Just check up on some videos and you'll see for yourself. Never just read on the internet, its very misleading and usually comes from people who've never been to the place they're cussing.
And no, the police does not harass women. Again, if search about Western people living in UAE, just listen to what they say.
And lastly, even Saudi is changing. The old-school kings are dying and now the younger princes are taking over who are a lot more liberal. Some have even called for abolishing the restriction on women driving so I'm very optimistic about the future of Saudi as a place where foreigners can chill.
There's great freedom in UAE, but what about South Korea, I'd love to live there. Also liberal and with great emerging technologies such as the "Eight City" not mentioned in the video but 100% worth watching in the project presentation video!
+Quilliam Attari yeah, I'm an athiest and from America and went to dubai, I was very welcomed there in July when I went there. The UAE is america on steroids. Saudi Arabia is a million times worse with their Salafist views.
BEST VIDEO EVER I LOVE HOW OUR LANDSCAPES AND CITIES ARE CHANGING ANYONE AGREE
22:25 This is from Brazil, not China...
Go UAE Go Saudi Arabia Go Azerbijan
Trafic jam depicted in 22:19 is in São Paulo, Brazil. Not China.
and of course pretty much 90% of all these are way off east. reep i live in the u.s.a. i would like to see something crazy and new and futuristic here.
mate you're $19 trillion in debt lol
Nicolas, Just move to Dubai if you want to see crazy and futuristic stuff. U.S is 19 Trillion dollars in debt
sasha jean lol so true
The west is already built up, so there's no need for something gigantic. There are still big infrastructure projects in the US but they're not as gigantic as in this video.
LOL
that so great and very educative..thanks for your time
Amazing video, great job.
I trust all the projects except Indian project. I know my people and government.
As you don't like modi
Bhanupratap Singh I wonder why you think that? 🤔🤔
i wonder which mega project is more important? the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor [ITER] or the Azerbaijan city?
Tail finz I'd say the Azerbaijan City most definitely
I hate Azerbaijan
@@michaelburgarino worst terrorist country
By far, this is the best video I have ever seen here on YT. Great job, I was impressed with your knowledge of the topics as well as the fact that you expounded on them with your own views and opinions. Thank you for your efforts!
