Earthquake recovery construction may boost China's economy
China has already transformed the location of this year's devastating earthquake into a construction site. The government is expected to spend 25% of a $580 billion economic recovery package on quake reconstruction, and it hopes the effort will help boost the country's ailing economy. The stimulus package includes roads, railways and 4.5 million homes.
