That is the lowest in australia, but that's good!![]()
actually, africa only has 1,200 something skyscrapers. most of the countries in africa are generally too poor to afford skyscrapers.

I have a feeling that Africa will change within two decades from now. We will see about that.
Let's get back to the topic.![]()

You mean only South Africa, like johnnesburg?

cairo and a few others have skyscrapers in africa, too.
What about the opposite? The rich? I bet it would be China!
please do not tell me its impossible. research is your friend, dude. I did not estimate it and the web link I gave you has the info buried on the site.
I guess australia has a different way of grouping suburbs and the city. I read somewhere that sydney only has 145,000 in city with metro of 4 million. I don't know their way of classifying the city limits and stuff. Australian cities have a confusing system for their metro area classifications.
Tokyò is much worse how their metro system, they divide it by districts, there are no real suburbs there.
Hong Kong just beat New York City by number of skyscrapers in one city. Plus China has over 1.2 billion people compared to USA's 303 million people. Both countries got many big cities too. China is running out of room to grow which is why they're being forced to build skyscrapers to make room for everyone. USA still have plenty of lands to grow on. Some part of USA like Seattle, Bellevue, New York, Miami, Chicago, Portland, San Diego, Las Vegas, Sacramento, Austin, and some more US cities that I am not aware of are experiencing huge high rise booms right now. Most of these US cities I listed are not really forced to build skyscrapers but it is becoming a trend now because more and more Americans are tired of commuting and want to live in the city to be near their workplaces, stores, restaurants, and everything within walk-distance.
I was wondering what about Eygpt?

Yupp I have been in Tokyo, ya know, whoaaaa... I NEVER see any building that are just one story. Every street are walled with varies of buildings, and only trees you will see is on the middle of road or few parks, or maybe you can see mountain but probably won't at the most of the times because you are too down INTO city. I am quite starting to understand why Japan government disagree that Tokyo is a "city", but a greater metro.
cairo is in egypt. :P
I'll see that for myself, when I am going there for Christmas in 2008 with my family for a month.
Ooops, my bad!
China's economy is generated by manufactured goods, so their skyscraper constructions boom for the offices for the companies of china.
China unseen workers earns 10 cents per hour jobs that boost China's economy.![]()
Do you have the approriate source?
Huh?
I watched documentary movie about china factory ... "China Blue"
