The Chinese are Coming
An apartment building in two weeks at minimal cost – this is what the
CEO of the Chinese construction company Everbright is promising. The
company, located in Beijing, is one of five construction companies from
China and another one from Portugal, which the Ministry of Construction
and Ministry of Treasury chose out of fifty companies from all over the
world, to build in Israel. Saudi Arabia, Ghana and Malaysia are just a few
of the countries the Chinese Everbright has already built in. Everbright’s
construction method – the Lego method, slabs (they) make in a factory and
just assemble at the construction site – can give a cheap and quick solution
to Israel’s housing problem. If this project will succeed, the Ministry of
Construction will let other companies enter the Israeli housing market too.
