Dirty Great Machines

WOW. I kind of get the picture. Potential for injuries and dare I say it fatalities...

I would have said that I imagine it paid well but no doubt they used Philippino labour...

I was in charge of a gang of HK-born Pakistani workers.

Chinese either wouldn't go down there because of superstitions, and when the govt did send some on a work programme, they were either lazy so and so's or just couldn't cope with the (surface) work. None would go down the tunnel.

We did have some very capable Chinese engineers and the odd fitter/welder, so I won't rubbish all the Chinese staff.
