    Thank God The benevolent Chinese investors who have our best interest at heart have decided to purchase.

    Hey, the Chinese know how to build houses. They built so many houses they crashed their property market. Maybe we could use some of that.

  3. I would love to see those CGI images of future developments without the blue skies and sunshine. Show what it looks like in the rain and grey skies. That’s how it will look 90% of the year. Make that still look like its resident-friendly and livable and you’re doing a good job in planning terms.

    Chinese developer or Irish developer, fooling yourself if you think that part makes any bit of difference. 

  5. In Australia, if your try to look for rentals, about 99% percent are handled by Chinese agents. Hate to see that happening here.

    I was saying to my mate the other day, that its really sad that the Chineae oligarchy are not profiteering from Irelands housing crisis.

    What do you expect them to do with all the money they are making from the shit they produce for us!

    China is on the verge of being declared an adversary by EU

    China supports Russias invasion and China is the backbone of Hamas/iran.

    China threatens to invade Taiwan and to take it by force and has publicly ordered its military to be ready for this by 2027.

    PRC China like its unlimited friend (their words, not mine) Russia in relation to Ukraine do not recognise the people of Taiwan. They see it as theirs, even though it’s not.

    Taiwan is a free and fair democratic country, a much better democracy than many such as USA, France, uk, according the the global democracy index. China cannot allow this on its doorstep so it will murder many thousands of people in Taiwan to get rid of the ideas, just like Russia needed to do with Ukraine.

    Chinese overseas money tends to come from corruption and crime. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Red-Roulette-Insiders-Corruption-Vengeance/dp/1398509906

    Chinese influence weakens countries and increases corruption- this should not be allowed in Ireland

    This is how the Chinese government is taking over the world – at an insideous pace

  10. They’re building train lines in Eastern Europe at a rapid pace currently.

    We need drastic solutions to fix the infrastructure in this country.

    And if a company has the skills and capabilities to build housing and public transport quickly and cheaply it’s a no brainer.

    Its a private investment fund. Doesnt matter where they are from. Its not like Irish developers are looking out for the average Joe looking for a cheap place.

    Best of luck to them. We need every house we can get.

  12. Just add in a few of the official / not official CCCP police stations and Limerick will clean up nicely

    I mean look, this is an extraordinarily risky investment. Once they’ve built housing they are going to have to sell it, and in this country they will really struggle to offload housing. Anything could happen. Everyone in Ireland might leave in the next few months and then these eejits will be left hanging.

    No no. It’s much better to offload high risk strategies like building housing in Ireland to those brave enough to take precarious positions.

  14. When the government say X amount of houses built each year, do housing built through investors count towards that number?

  15. I’m sure the ultra nationalist, country loving, God fearing, immigrant hating, true Irish’ing marble brains will react to this land grab!?

    Right?
