>Skyscrapers are not an indigenous lifestyle. I suppose that's not okay to bring up in this context?
If people are going to oppose this project, don't do it on the basis of some vaguely bigoted notion that "these skyscrapers don't match the indigenous lifestyle". As if that's the reason the project's opponents are opposing it. It's clearly a smokescreen being deployed because they actually dislike the project for NIMBY reasons (e.g., "it'll block my view", "it'll reduce the value of my nearby properties").
(Whether the commenter I'm responding to actually believes this is immaterial. The article quoted a local government official who basically said the same thing.)
