Most Controversial Megaprojects in the World 

sport stadium boondoggles and overruns are a interesting future topic since they waste billions of public dollars

Not to me. I unsubbed. If I want to hear left leaning political talk I.ll watch CNN.

I think that the giant Saudi projects are among the most daring, innovative, sustainable and distinguished in their idea, including: 1. NEOM projects, most notably: The Line Project, OXAGON Project, TROJENA Project, the largest solar chips project in the world, green hydrogen facilities projects Which may be the project that will save the world from global warming ( NEOM is like the city of science fiction, it is the city of dreamers) 2. The Qiddiya project to build the largest entertainment city in the world according to the latest designs and build the most exciting games to break 3 records (The site is associated with one of the most important geological features in the Arabian Peninsula ، Before Islam, Arab poets wrote many poems about the Najd plateau) (Saudi tourists are among the world’s most spenders on entertainment, and this will limit the travel of many Saudis abroad) 3. Al-Ula oases project with a unique design in one of the most important archaeological cities to build a tram linking the five oases to be the largest open museum in the world and provide a rich tourist experience by visiting these stations by establishing services in institutes, museums, academies, exhibitions, cafes, etc... that meet the needs of the tourist Project title (Discover The Journey Through Time Masterplan, AlUla, North West Arabia ) 4. The unique Red Sea Islands project in its idea of ​​benefiting from renewable and clean energy without affecting the environment for its sustainability and building very distinctive and innovative hotels in their designs The Amaala project will be parallel to the Red Sea Islands project in luxury hotel services in the field of health and recreation ، So that the two projects compete with the best international projects in island tourism 5. Al-Soudah Company’s project, which has completed the final design to make the city of Abha one of the most important tourist cities for nature lovers after studying the advantages of the most important and most beautiful tourist cities in the world ، And taking advantage of the relative advantages of the culture of the Asir region, which is characterized by Asir architecture, fine arts, folklore, etc. 6. The downtown Jeddah project, which started the rapid demolition operations to rebuild Jeddah according to the latest engineering designs and take advantage of the advantages of Hijazi architecture as a landmark that distinguishes the city of Jeddah from other cities in the world and building a civilized city that competes with the most beautiful cities in the world 7.Diriyah project: which aims to be the largest cultural city in the world and be a major tourist and cultural attraction ، Which has hosted international sports tournaments such as Formula E and the World Boxing Cup, etc. Its political symbolism is that it is the first capital of the Saudi state in 1744 AD ، The project focused on the shape of the old city in the Najdi urban style 8.The King Abdulaziz Road Project in Makkah to improve the quality of life for the people of Makkah and a main goal for Makkah to receive about 30 million pilgrims and pilgrims annually.

nice content!

Yes plz u should cover the indian dholera project it is one of the most controversial project in asia

Sorry his own narrative that it was a wall around Mexico and didn't say over 2 million that were caught this last year. Americans are not that stupid

Informative? This video provides false I formation within the first 2 minutes. Trump never called for a ban on all Muslims entering America. Just for example, people from India were never banned from entering America and India was never on the list of banned countries.

Could’ve done without the political bs…. Trump never wanted to keep all Muslims out… first off. This guys politics really turned me off of his otherwise decent videos, unsubscribe

יע

Lol no

lol

At least the wall was built while you good for nothin commies watched

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Even us republicans thought that comment was stupid

It still is one only problem is alot of people still haven't realized it

@@kiriuxeosa8716 i had a stroke reading this. is english your second language?

I love how Biden came in denounced his wall…. Then resumed construction

How was Trump not a dictator? Trump rallies were similar to Nazi Rallies. Or Mussolini's Rallies. Lots of similarities.

@@BloxyMelonio You talk about someone else not being smart? You are not the brightest. The RU-vid comments section is the opposite of intelligent.

It's OK because the US blew it up we put an end to that nord stream 2 because Russia invaded Ukraine

When I heard that I was about to state the exact same thing The new Channel will as a paid service will also have to track every ship passing through it and honestly I don't think the U.S would even want that disasterous nightmare of leaving our ships in the Black Sea it's like a sitting duck there Russia could sink it so fast.

You are 100% right but the problem is that another megaproject called Çanakkale Canal was discovered in the documents which most certainly will bypass the Montreaux Convention. As a Turkish citizen it bothers me a lot and raises a suspicion. These projects are and will be benefited by the US herself and considering Turkey’s current economic state I highly doubt that the Turkish State would be able to pay for the expenses. So how how or should I say who will be paying for the completion of the Canal... unfortunately there is only one answer and we all know it.

@@ataberk9331 No, Çanakkale/Dardanelles Kanal won't be a workaround to Montreux either. Marmara Sea itself is included in the convention. In the beginning of the agreement it clearly states 'Straits is a shorthand term used to address Bosphorus & Dardanelles straits AND the Sea of Marmara'. You can dig parallel channels to both straits and warships cannot make it from the Aegean to the Black sea since both these channels have the Sea of Marmara in the middle to connect with each other. Warships are forbidden to enter Marmara regardless if they are attempting to enter it through the straits or not.

He's also wrong in saying Trump called for a ban on ALL Muslims entering America. That's false. This video is bs with minimal research done.

@@minimonkeyplay Russia couldn't sink a stone... 🤣🤣🤣

Australia, South Africa, NZ - it's called soccer

@Yvon Q. They can do it but let's just say Russia and the US won't be pleased with them if they do

It's like you block the only hallway between 2 gangs and ask them for money They won't beat you for sure

And thats how you start a World War

At least they shared their opinion Einstein

@@sallybugs1695 That's not a good thing. Dofus.

I often read the comments before watching the vid in order to know if the video is worth watching😎

@@andybilakshow260 Thats a very bad mindset, because the collective intelligence of the people tends to be dissapointing, as well as their recommendations. Give it a try to watching a video blind and make your own opinions, don't let the masses do it for you.

Now we have a drive-thru thanks to Brandon.

@@user-it6cj9yo6w no it’s not. We put major surveillance and AI tech for border security during Obama Administration but most of it amounted to a “waste of money project”.

all politicians are fake as fuck.

Best part is "And mexico will pay for the wall" 😂🤣😂🤣

@@ayush_ayush that would actually be pretty easy to do. Mexico relies way too heavily on the US to deny paying for it if it came down to it. Even if they didn't though, a wall would be cheaper for taxpayers. Illegals cost taxpayers over $100 billion a year. A wall wouldn't.

It’s a literal joke

@@thatone1280 For american and western bots..

You didn't see the video where it says there's another one for free right?

@@AM-ud4xf the waiting time will be a lot. So that will cause problem for them.

@@orionemperor5319 Any upside you would get from faster services would immediately be eaten up by the fees for transportation through it. You also gotta remember that Russia, the largest and most powerful nation around the Black Sea, wouldn't be too keen on having a non neutral canal that could deliver ships to their front door.

U poor man

Honestly, moving capitals sounds like a waste of money by bureaucrats and politicians. Instead of building ports and power plants to drive manufacturing prices down, they focus on what would make themselves comfortable.

@@phoenix5054 no it is relocated because of environmental issue you can see many video on it

Actually relocating the capital isn't a bad idea at all. Jakarta is already overpopulated and the nation's growth is mainly centralized on Java island, relocating the capital to a less populated and developed area could solve those problems

where did you find his source for the Qatari numbers? In the video it only says "preparation for the cup", so one could assume that the year span is similar.

@@gladitsnotme I would assume it's from an article in The Guardian (Feb 23, 2021), since there's nothing in the video description. Edit: the analysis compiles data of deceased migrant workers in Qatar 2011-2020.

They're not irrelevant, and its absolutely disgusting that you think they are. Your second paragraph cotradicts your first. Way to support human rights violations!

So true but also if they continue its like Germany betraying the EU and helping Russia

theres no use crying over spilled milk when theres blood being spilled elsewhere my dude, war has never been a net positive for anyone, not russia, not ukraine, not the EU, its all a giant waste of resources

"correct" yeah sure buddy

Nah it's stupid. It goes to show the ignorance of Trump ways by having tunnel vision. There are far effective ways than to build walls and he just can't see it or not wish to see it. He's a fool that thinks he smarter than everyone yet he still can't figure out why he lost.

@@kvm1992 yea because asking illegal, dug dealing, murdering, rapists to just stay in mexico works great huh? If people come in legally, and are accounted for, than ok. This is obviously not the case, ask the people who have to live with it every day, the people who have lost family members, and live in fear of these people walking right into their back yards everyday, all hours of the day.

Recent reports show that Trump's wall has been breached literally thousands of times since it's construction. It's pretty easy to cut a hole in the thing with a $200 SAwzall from Home Depot if you are really determined to get through. And this doesn't even account for the sections which are literally falling over due to poor engineering. The Great Wall of China it ain't. If you want to secure the border, there are far better, less invasive (remember, the Feds had to take thousands of acres of privately held land by eminent domain to build the wall),more cost effective, and ore high tech solutions to accomplish that end.

@@WolfinWolvesClothing713 Um aren't you missing something here? Isn't that already happening in the US. What difference does it makes? They can come and if they do the crime they do the time. What makes you think there wouldn't be any justice if and when there's no border wall and they happen to do the crime on US soil? This argument for a border wall just isn't adding up. Only bad leadership can form a reckless solution such as border walls. I mean it seems like Trump didn't know how to build trustful relationships with our neighbors which led him to walling the US off. His whole presidency can be summed up as incompetence, difficulty working with others thus turning people against others.

@@kvm1992 worked wonders for Israel

That is shocking coming from an east european 😂😂

Ukraine government and Biden regime are crooked.

Keeps it nice and toasty

The US is playing dirty geopolitics while they can bomb everywhere in the world.

He misspoke. We should arm them to defeat Russia.

@@f-86zoomer37 you should do some actual research before you make yourself look like idiot. Oh wait too late for that. The war in Ukraine started in 2014 when the democratically elected Ukrainian government was overthrown by Obama in an illegal coup and replaced with an anti-Russian poppet-client state regime that would go on to commit daily war crimes against ethnic Russians in Donbass, in clear violation of the Minsk agreements! Where was the international community then?! This war would have been avoided by one simple guarantee, for Ukraine to be a neutral nation and not join NATO, which is already a 30-country-strong military alliance knocking on Russia’s doorsteps! Russia’s attack on Ukraine is illegal and unwarranted, but you can not deny that it was the US who provoked this conflict. Did Russia not try diplomacy? Not for days or weeks, but for months and years, since 2014 to be exact!? Was this special military operation necessary for Russia to perhaps avoid an inevitable and inescapable WWlll if the US continue insisting on pushing NATO eastward?!! Isn’t it also exactly what US would have done had Russia done to Canada what US did to Ukraine: pledge hostile military alliance membership; back a coup; pour in weapons used to attack civilians; and thwart diplomacy. What the world needs to do is to negotiate this peacefully and not give in to the US advocating the war and sending more weapons to Ukraine to prolong the pain and suffering! By Johnny Achi

No

With an order of Karelian stew?

@@gljm hugh !

Norwegian the wall instead

From what exactly? I didn't see troops or tanks crossing. Immigration isn't an invasion. Yes there are some drug trafficking but that shouldn't be the reason to penalized the majority with good intentions. There's other ways to handle the problem than building a wall.

Defending against humanity or what? :D

To people on the other side of the political spectrum to Trump it was. That still means it was, in some form, a controversial project.

@@reyalfa18 they did when trump was in office 🤗

@@kvm1992 what about sex traffickers?

i think its stupid to ignore reality, its not like you can prevent them from arriving in the first place, so you could at least take control of the situation by letting them legally migrate and pay taxes and then deport them if they're super bad rapists or whatever, its kinda hard to enforce stupid laws if you refuse to be realistic about it

@@Crosshill sorry but that was such a stupid comment.

@@Crosshill that won't work XD

Yes

@@Crosshill Please go to a credible educational facility and start over. You obviously didn't learn anything from the 1st time around.

That my mate, is not racist I agree with you in that, what un my point of view is racist is to portray the majority as rapists, drug dealers and trouble makers while it is not the case, there's more good than bad people, the bad examples are what usually takes more attention from the mainstream media. Hope you're having a good day.

well, it fake news, cnn already admit it. only 67 death since the stadium built 10 years ago

I know that you didn’t mean it that way, so please don’t take my comment the wrong way. But to say that those workers sacrificed their lives for the Qatar government, so that they could host the world cup, seems to be very very disrespectful towards them. That is because to sacrifice yourself, that would mean they would have done so out of their own will. These workers haven’t sacrificed themselves, they have BEEN sacrificed by their own government in hopes of new global popularity, through these different mega projects.

As I said, I know you didn’t mean it that way, but for the future, if you want to honor those who habe left their life for something. ALWAYS make sure to get it right, why those people have died for said causes. (Because of external forces/ out of sheer will/ and so on…)

Sorry english is not my first language, so my comments may not make to much sense. Otherwise im fully on your side, these peoples lives were taken and the least the world can do is to remember them and their efforts.

God bless

You buy into all the BS that comes out of that man's mouth. Walls never work historically, the great wall of China got breached the Berlin Wall the same, they slow down the average person but the truly determined ones always make it in, and for the record we have had some form of wall or fence for decades. All he is selling is fear to the weak and if you vote for him he is the only one who can fix your fears. keep drinking the Kool aid

@@LornaMoz you confused Indonesia with India, mate. India also has a massive Muslim population though

@@savioblanc you're right. My mistake. India is actually 3rd behind Indonesia and Pakistan. Indonesia wasn't on the ban list either though lol. Pakistan was. Rightfully so though.

@@LornaMoz I have to say though, you seem to be arguing two different things. So Trump did call for a general ban on Muslims to the US because his reasoning was that too many in the Muslim world found the US to be evil and he didn't want people who had a general hatred for the US to be allowed into the country, without first being vetted. He never mentioned how this could be enforced or even that he could do something like this. It was hyperbole during the 2016 campaign. When he became President though, he enforced an Obama administration created list of countries with a potential high risk to American citizens and banned the citizens of those countries from entry to the US, regardless of their religion. This list was mostly Muslim majority countries but also included countries like Venezuela on it. Also, the ban included even non-Muslim minorities from those countries, since the list wasn't based on religion. This ofcourse didn't stop the media from reporting that Trump had enforced his "Muslim ban", despite Indonesia, the largest Muslim populated nation on the planet, not even featuring on the list.

@@savioblanc Trump never called for a ban on all Muslims entering the US.
