I'm currently living in Naypyitaw, Myanmar. 80% of the small population of Naypyitaw, including me, live in the urbanized areas which were villages about 500 years ago. More than 90% of the city were teak forests before 2000. Naypyitaw is six times larger than the city of New York. Now, Myanmar is in a military coup, and more people have left the capital to hide in forests in remote mountainous areas, as we are under high risk for being arrested by the military. After we win this revolution, we warmly welcome you all to pay a visit to Myanmar.

As someone who lives in Hawaii, I can say the H-3 is far from "useless". It's the chosen route for most people to get from one side of the island to the other.

As someone who lives in the Andromeda Galaxy, I can confidently tell you that the H3 highway in Hawaii is far from useless.
@doycechu6074
Hawai’i Resident and Native Hawaiian here, no idea where you got the “cursed” thing from, the only superstition we have is taking pork over that mountain for reasons relating to cultural deities. But the H-3 is definitely useful. It’s the fastest way from the east side to downtown Honolulu and the airport. Going right down the middle of the island is definitely faster than going around; that being said, the military definitely uses it. Like the video points out, it leads from MCAS K-Bay to Pearl Harbor, that’s still super useful; the national guard uses it all the time! Just recently it was used during our massive surge testing for Covid-19.

As a Kānaka Maoli and someone who grew up in Hawaiʻi, the H3 is the furthest thing from being a "useless megaproject." It is such a vital route to get from the North side of the island to Central , East, and West Oahu.

Imagine building an entire city in secret and hoping it just flourishes. What were they thinking?
@lettuceplus01
My family briefly lived in Naypyidaw in Myanmar for about 2 years after it's construction. We came from a smaller neighboring town in hopes that it would soon become a bustling atmosphere, and for the first year of living there, we were full of hope. The architecture and landscaping was gorgeous, there were many places you could visit, and the transit was built to be incredibly quick and efficient, only being quicker due to the fact that near nobody was using it. My family really wanted to love it, but with the lack of people, we came to realize one very important thing. Despite all of the beauty that had been built, constructed carefully by hand with the grand expenses of both our money and time, we finally learned that the H3 highway in Hawaii is far from useless.

I do like living in Naypyidaw, pure silence, solitude and tranquility, the air is fresh, the roads are always empty and well lit at night but the problem is traveling great distance to a nearest supermarket and basically a quite place vibes
@JadaDesiree
I used to drive H3 every day to get to work, not sure how it’s useless it’s used every single day lol. The views even while it rains are beautiful, the mountains are so tall they make their own waterfalls. Definitely the most beautiful drive I’ve ever been on
@TsukikageOz
These gigantic, nearly empty roads would make a perfect setting for a zombie apocalypse film.
@AmazingAwesomeAlaska
I love how all the comments are roasting this guy for not actually doing his research when it came to H3
@BellicV
As someone who doesn’t live in Hawaii, I can tell you by the comments that H3 is far from useless.
@Taxi_for_takeoff
I lived in Hawaii. The H3 is an extremely busy highway, often bumper to bumper during rush hour. I never heard of anyone not using it that lived there. And it is the fastest way from the east side to Honolulu (H3 to H1) unless the Pali is empty. Far from useless.
@whyiseverysinglehandletaken2
The problem with Naypyidaw is that it was mostly built in secret in the middle of nowhere. If they hadn't done that then more companies would have tried to invest and stuff. Building your capital in secrecy is idiocy.
@poppythedogofwonders
As an alien from a planet in the far off reaches of reality itself who has never set foot on Earth's crust I can absolutely assure you that the H3 is far from useless.
@andrewzimmerman2115
I'm Hawaiian, have never once heard of H3 being cursed. But not only is the H3 used often, you can literally see plenty of cars using it in the video. How is it useless?
@DeadWhiteButterflies
Don't forget literally anything that the Saudi Royal family builds.
@RandomGuy37
If I had $1 every time Top Gear has featured a useless megaproject, I'd have $2. It's not a lot, but it's weird that it has happened twice.
@luca7311
as someone who has lived in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, all my life, I can tell you with absolute certainty that the H-3 is far from useless
