Countries with the Longest High-Speed Rail (% Share Since 1996) 

China: US is trying to jeopardize our economy by making lies about we stealing their technology with no evidence.

@@Jason-wf8yg china doesnt need the help of USA anyways lol

America is not building something as useless as that. And the Chinese situation is special. They are literally creating themselves a bubble and if burst it will hit them very hard

Where would people use it from, and where would we put it? I think Japan has one of best because they pre planned it

No my country also 😭 Even though it's 2nd most populated

Idk how it became so peaceful. The HSR in China is one of the most useless megaprojects in the world and it is one of the biggest bubbles in the world

No this is not a market competition scenario. The fact that China builds more HSR doesn’t really stop other countries from doing so… Other countries might get inspired/motivates to catch up. China would probably be the one that build their HSRs

If they are stupid enough.

Even the freeway system is in bad shape, compare to the Chinese.

Not auto makers but the oil and gas industry.

There are no conditions in US to build High Speed Rails

is it very hard to think of "rest of the world combined"

Rest of the world except europe

it would be insanely stupid for empty nation like canada and australia to have but america should have tho

@@strange8628 I agree, but I'm sort of curious where we'd (and a lot of other countries) would put the damn things. because planes can go around and boats can go over, but trains like roads have to go through and even some of the people who wanted them are going to complain, And the point is to have them in places like Canada or Austraila because although they go about 1/4 of the speed of a plane bring more stuff and act like a bus to save tons of gas and make trip cheaper instead of needing 3 planes and people taking all the annoying ass detours to sit and wait. It's more like speeding car to travel somewhere. I think they might be a pain in the butt too but people like my wussy friend who's scared of planes would like that.

im suprise to see they are not even in the game🤔

@@user-dx7yh4ij9q I don't think we will in 5-10 years. I don't live in a state that's going to be in the 1st ones to get it. I don't know if any state is close.

The rest of the world

India is building its first HSR line that is scheduled to be fully built by 2028. And your assumption that India should have the world's second largest network isn't correct. For sure, India can have such a large network. But at present, such a network won't be viable commercially and will incur massive losses. The reason for that is the fact that Indians are nowhere as rich as people from the countries shown in the video and HSR costs a lot of money to build and run which the passengers need to pay for. The government is beginning to build HSR lines on routes that are expected to be commercially viable. It will take quite sometime before we have a large network.

​@@shivampatnaik2000 I think you're underestimating the economic returns of basic infrastructure. India should not even be considered that poor. You'll see in the video that China started building its first HSR in the mid-2000s, and the most economically important Beijing-Shanghai and Beijing-Guangzhou routes were complete, I think, in 2007. It's been 15 years. How far behind is India compared with China? The gap is probably 15-20 years if we look at GDP per capita figures and assume 7%-8% growth for India. Another data point is that India recently passed France and the UK in total GDP, something China did around 2004 if I recall. So India should now be doing what China was doing in the mid-2000s timeframe. On some things like access to the Internet, the software industry, India is doing better than China at a comparative GDP level. But on other things, infrastructure, total exports, etc., China was doing better.

@@pineapplesareyummy6352 I believe the government recognises the fact that many routes have either become viable or will become viable in a few years and is thus building the first lines. We will hopefully have our first lines around 20 years after China had its first ones. Not unreasonable, I think. For India to have a large network, we probably have to wait for another 20 to 30 years.

​@@pineapplesareyummy6352 Here is a simple comparison of China and India's GDP (in billions) in the past 20 years. In 2001 India's GDP accounted for 37% of China's GDP, but in 2021 that number dropped to 18%. It looks like that gap is getting even bigger.

your logic： China 1.447 billion have the world's largest HSR network India 1.403 billion should have the world's second-largest HSR network(?) USA 334 million should have the world's third-largest HSR network(lol) Mate No "should" in this world for obvious reasons oh my

USA doesn't have any, most people travel by car

@@angelzavala2254 idk about u. I been to euro many times. It was good to have high speed train because u can travel anywhere so easily, and again you don't have to drive 3 hrs and stuck in the traffic or what not.. I would rather sleep for 3 hrs then driving 3hrs.

US is helping Ukraine to defend the country, while China is supporting Putin and and ONLY those 2 countries recognized Taliban as a legitimate government. Let's PRAY to China NEVER becomes the most powerful country in the world. As for high-speed rail, in 50's, the American government bet in highways to cars - today, it's visible it was a HUGE MISTAKE, but now, as the United States is a REAL DEMOCRACY, if you want to build a high-speel rail, the price is astronomical... while Chinese government just says "get out from the way, because I want a high-speed rail where it was your house". It's very simple.

@@lokyinphotography some Chinese HSR travel faster than 400km/h, half the speed of airplanes

I read the fastest train in the US does go up to around 150 mph (240 kph), which would normally meet the criterion for HSR, but as this is only over a short section of track, and not over any significant distance on a major route, the US is not considered to have HSR.

Bruh, we're only have Jakarta-Bandung.

yes ,success belongs to a san!

We are much smaller and more densely populated. Far less worth in getting a lot of it. We have HS2 coming which will connect our big population centres but any more is pointless.

India will never has high speed train, to much corrupted, japan already win tender in india but failed because stupid corrupt goverment..

That's never gonna happen in such a pace.

Maybe in 20 years lol, by that time China will have a maglev network comparable to its current HSR network.

The best in Europe in infrastructures and the foutht in the world, roads, airports, ports, metro cities, train...

人家又不喜欢你，贱

India does not have high speed rail

🤣🤣🤣

well....

India high speed train is in progress

In progress.. but it will take a lot of time cuz we're facing a lot of issues in Land acquisition >

Japan is understandable. It is a compact country where half the population live in a line from, say, Tokyo to Hiroshima. And given the geography, it may not be that worthwhile to try to build a Shinkansen on the west coast, or expand into Hokkaido.

@@pineapplesareyummy6352 also, japan is not as huge as china..

@@pineapplesareyummy6352 They are actually expanding into Hokkaido though.

china is a developing coutnry with the some of the best infrasutures , 5G network, in shenzhen one city along, there is more base station than whole europe combined , china's cities are more oganised and clean than most developed coutnreis, china's social safety is less than none other countries. china's unique development model is making china's growh strong and robust,

I am not trying to be biased because I am Chinese, but I would not really consider China as a "developing country".

The first goal of China's government is to keep its people happy. The first goal of the US government is to maintain the number one position in the world. A weak RMB is good for export, which will keep prices lower and improve people's living standards all over the world. Although a strong RMB may make China's GDP suddenly surpass that of the United States, and its per capita income will also reach the level of developed countries, but it will not improve Chinese people's lives much, because to be honest, prices are almost calculated according to the standard of RMB，instead of dollars today. The terms GDP, developed, etc. sometimes don't conform to real life

@@user-yc8yu8qv3q China was able to grow because it finally allowed it's ppl to make money.

@@Racko. if that is the main reason, then ,there should be no poor country in this world.

China is not like Europe, most of the land is plain. China has a large number of mountains, plateaus above 4,000 meters, karst landforms, Gobi Desert, and densely populated. Building high-speed rail in such a country requires strong technology, huge output of building materials and high-tech materials, a huge team of engineers, advanced geological investigation and planning, advanced materials and large-scale equipment suitable for various geological and extreme climates, and also It requires the mobilization and deployment management ability of a large amount of social resources. Since China can make these things now, more things you can't imagine in the future China can make

@@lovefromhuang All that is true but all that is neither unique nor is it only in China. And besides that doesn't change the fact that most of the HSR in China is running on debt

@@davout5775 when you make one piece of pasta at home and make 10,000 pieces of pasta, the equipment, raw materials, manpower and space required are not of the same order of magnitude. Before, you might only need two people to do it, but now you need a separate small workshop, hire people, and even involve financial and tax issues. The high-speed rail project is loss-making, but it improves social efficiency and drives the overall economic development by many times the order of magnitude. You can go to the river to fetch water by a bucket every day, it's free, but why spend money on tap water every month? Because tap water is not only convenient, but also enhances your overall quality of life, you don’t need to store water and spend time and effort fetching it. Would you consider tap water a debt trap?

The country with the largest debt is not China. Have you heard how much China owes other countries? Got a giant bubble? Do you buy Chinese government bonds?
