For information, the plant has been built. The building is there, just empty.

Nope. The plant that was promised was never built. They did build some storage warehouses and started a propaganda program where they hired dozens to hundreds of locals to come in to the warehouses, sit around, and do nothing to appear like they were doing something.

The machines inside a LCD factory are dramatically more expensive than the building itself. The "plant" has not been built in any meaningful way.
