Imagine a network so vast it spans across mountains, plains and cities—connecting people with the lifeblood of nature. At a press conference on Monday, the Chinese mainland’s Ministry of Water Resources revealed that the region has built the world’s largest and most comprehensive water infrastructure system, benefiting millions of residents and industries. 🌊🏗️
Unveiled as part of the 14th Five-Year Plan period (2021-2025), this mega-project combines dams, reservoirs, canals, advanced monitoring systems and flood-control measures to ensure reliable water supply for agriculture, cities and ecosystems. From record-breaking reservoir capacity to smarter irrigation networks, the system is designed to tackle challenges like droughts, floods and urban growth.
CGTN Graphics has captured these achievements in a stunning visual summary—showing how each piece of infrastructure plays a part in strengthening water security and boosting sustainable development. For young investors and professionals, it’s a reminder of how large-scale planning can reshape entire regions. 🚀
