The group also had a long ride through world famous Megapolis city of Guangzhou to see its vast infrastructure including airport, metro, buses, roads, flyovers, markets and of course beauful skyscrapers. A few other observaons of delegaon are:- China being bigger country with hardworking people has more manufacturing units with quality products, probably due to the supporve government policies. Delegaon felt that quality of most of the products is beer than India perhaps mainly due to top class modern factories with latest and fully automac equipments and above all dedicaon of the masses towards their jobs. More females are working as compared to India. Discipline on roads is much higher as compared to India. Meeng in China Welcome in Mall
