Ridiculous demolition

Can we call it development or growth when a newly rebuilt school will be demolished to make room for the construction of a central business district?

To improve the condition of this old primary school, the local district government in the city of Fuzhou, East China's Fujian province, invested 15 million yuan ($2.2 million). The new school now has more than 30 classrooms and other modern teaching facilities. Beside the building is a huge sports park. On Sept 9, 2008, a grand ceremony was held to inaugurate the use of the new building. The construction of the sports ground and other facilities were completed in September last year, when the local government made the decision that the school would soon be demolished.

This case is typical of the visionless urban planning and waste of resources by some local governments.
