They might still be producing junk but the speed at which they are catching up is unbelievable.

Spend five minutes in Shanghai, now more modern and impressive than Tokyo, and you will realize very quickly that there is no stopping them.
I think that could be a bit of an exaggeration. I was just in Shanghai and while it is developing very fast (apparently some estimate that 50% of the world cranes are in Shanghai) I don't think it is more modern than Tokyo quite yet. But the speed that things happen there I wouldn't be surprised if it was withing the decade. The plans that they have for that city are crazy. If they even complete half of the projects I would be impressed but they are convinced they can do them all. And looking around at all the progress that is being made, I can't really doubt it.
