The Chinese ghost town depicted above has been a recent topic and mystery. Considering the staggering amount of capital and resource necessary to develop these complete cities there must be more to it than poor management or GDP manipulation.

Thank you for taking the time to click through and read the article. The "Ghost Town" label was coined prior to myself being aware.
