China's nuclear reactors are getting built for about US$2 billion per gigawatt of reactor. Nuclear skeptics have a tough time believing that China, South Korea and Asia in general can build for far about half cost of Europe and the USA.

I will also compare the situation with bridges. The cost and schedule of the Bay bridge with China's bridges. More at:
