WHAT  NEXT  ?

Says UAE Prime Minister, Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum :

"  Dubai's strategy is to have 25 % of the buildings in the Emirate printed , by 2030  "

LESSON  FOR  INDIA  ?

If we can send Mars Orbital Mission and a Reusable Space Vehicle , what is so difficult to " Copy / Adapt " this 3D printing technology for those 20 million ( or is it 50 million ? ) , affordable flats that we want to build by 2022 ?

As far as I can make out , all that stands in the way is  :

#  To invite WINSUN DESIGN DECORATION COMPANY of Shanghai ( the World leaders in 3D Printed Housing ) , to set up operations in each Indian State

Or is it " Fear of Failure / Fear of being Ridiculed , if things don't work out as well as expected / Too much Analysis producing Action Paralysis "  ?

Remember , Thomas Alva Edison was not " ashamed " of trying 1400 + times , before succeeding to invent a light bulb !
