>>Actually, most buildings constructed in the last 10 years in big cities

what cities? In China? I hard about that but frankly in Eastern European countries the aim to last 100 years. Same in USA AFAIK. Properly prepared concrete last quite a long time, if protected from the elements.

These are buildings put up by migrant workers, so properly prepared is relative. They make a trade off, it works for them.
