They should consider getting out of the dam business.
My first thought was just this...but then I read where they have 94,000 dams....repeat, 94 THOUSAND dams.
Seems like they do a good job, just the law of averages catching up with them

In Inner Mongolia, there isn’t much water there. This isn’t directly going to kill many people. However, good luck getting their cities water. The good news is tons of people in Inner Mongolia still live like their ancestors minus the mass rape and pillaging, they just go to market for batteries for their radios to get information. So at least they’re largely self sufficient. The people in the scattered cities around there are fricked though.

Seemed like a lot, dam failure last year in Michigan was more.

One video, the dam looked like it was made of prefab crap.

Feeling good about my upcoming move to Outer Mongolia.

I spent considerable time in Inner Mongolia, and it is pretty neglected. Theres a lot of money there to be made (if you are Han Chinese and move there), but the ethnic Mongolians live pretty roughly. Beijing doesn't care much about them. Not surprising that the infrastructure is crumbling.
