No one took on the $40B African project. Why did Japan lose face after China completed it?

More than a decade ago, China took on a $40 billion highway project in Algeria that no one else dared to attempt. Despite facing numerous challenges, China completed the project, which spans 1,216 kilometers and traverses harsh desert terrain. Japan, which initially managed part of the project, abandoned its section due to difficulties and high costs, leading to a loss of face when China successfully finished it. This achievement underscores China's commitment to infrastructure development in Africa and highlights the benefits of the Belt and Road Initiative.

China is gaining a reputation as the infrastructure maniac, and decidedly deserving so. China has worked well with African states and that cooperation has spread to the Middle East, South East Asia, and Latin America.

China has made the collective west, Japan included, unworthy as it's defeating all of them, on the global development front, single handedly... informative channel❤

The instability in Algeria has always been caused by foreign countries, especially France, the ex-colonial contry. France has never forgotten its shameful defeated by the Algerian people. France and other countries still have their eyes on the wealth of Algeria. Remember that the French army has robbed and filled its pockets with tons of gold from Algeria in 1830 and has not stopped from exploiting the resources of beautiful and rich Algeria until 1962.

Japan, notorious blocking and sabortaging China bid for engineering Projects. Japan failed to complete most of its project incapable to resolve the rough terrian obstacles, fled leaving the project uncompleted. The owner begged China to reinstate it and reconstruct to completion.

Many years ago, China is not capable of doing any intrastructure projects but they work hard and thru many
attempts and risks, took up the challenges and determine to succeed.in the end, their efforts paid off !!!

Same as Vietnam, before VN worshipped Japan and Korea so much, they didn’t wanna let China do any infrastructure project, only early 2000s they had a small Chinese company to build a short railway In Ha Dong-Catlinh, but had many issues that delayed years(which caused by VN’s red tape/corruption) but they blamed only Chinese side, and refused to cooperate with China, …but now after many failures in negotiating with Japan, also the completion and functioning well of 2 high speed rail lines in Laos and Indonesia has made VN government changed it’s mind, and started let China in

China is Algeria's first partner today

[caryandrae]

When it comes to mega projects, while other countries attempt to take, it mostly end up in corruption and abandoned once the corruption money stops. But with china, at the very least it gets completed.

[revelmedry]

Good this country is not with west specially with france.

[Justice-Zcjh]

How can Japan just forsake the last 84km!!?? That will waste the entire highway right? So irresponsible and undependable. Anyway it proves again that China is more capable of infrastructure construction.
