Shanghai: Head of the Dragon
Dragon is the most significant national symbol in China, and with the river Chiang Jiang flowing in a dragon-like a shape and Shanghai being at the end of the river so is the name the head of the dragon. The video covers the development initiated by the Chinese government supporting policies that encourage extended scale developments such as the Shanghai Open Coastal line. It is worth noting that transport network is vital for the progress of the city, and, therefore, the government has to get what it takes to bring prosperity to Shanghai. The river provides for the access of fair labor that is vital for the continuity of trade and with the enterprises in the area seeking foreign investments to thrive.
The part of the video that caught my attention is the shape of the river and the city of Shanghai being at the tip of it and the possibility of navigating the river to promote economic activities. It is possible for materials and products, and the labor to flow downstream to Shanghai promoting the growth of the city and its development. The part is of significance since it brings about the critical aspect of the meaning of the town and its role in the country in general. The most interesting part of the video is the navigability of the river and its potential to promote international trade and business activities within the area, supporting the movement of materials, goods, and labor to and from the city.
The video made the topic come alive, being that Shanghai is the largest city in China and one of the biggest cities around the globe, its presence at the tip of the river presents a head. The city is supported by the China’s policies that promote foreign trade and the deep-sea port being developed to support the economic activities. The changes in the city bring about a new town and with lots of infrastructural and economic development and with the opportunities presented, the city will continue to grow as the head of the dragon, China.
