According to western MSMs, Xinjiang Uyghurs are being genocided, oppressed and millions are being put in camps, so why would CPC build a multibillions dollars modern airports to promote tourism and trade? It doesn't make any sense, JFK and LAX don't even look half as good. Somebody is lying who is it?

Yay China! I lived at 7,600 feet elevation and worked in forestry at 10,000 feet elevation at the highest points. High elevations are exciting and wonderful. With China's new airport hopefully many people will get to have the experience of high elevation environments. Congratulations China.
