It's the same with everything. Look at this: China built more 5G base stations in 3 months than US did in 2 years. Staggering. The PRC puts it's mind to something and there's nothing that will get in it's way. The may be delays. There may be hiccups. But the progress gets made.

We can't even provide 3G in some places in my country and it's supposed to be a 'developed' one.
