I agree completely with the given statement, and I will present you a proof that it is right. The attached picture I show you is from Palmira-Colombia. It is the construction of a new hangar for the International Departures at the airport Alfonso Bonilla Aragón (CLO). This will be the second biggest airport in Colombia, and it's located 15km away from the third biggest city of Colombia: Cali. The government decided it was time for this airport to grow because of several reasons. One of them is because almost all the international air traffic right now has to be handled through Bogotá. Other reason, I guess, is because Cali is the third biggest city in Colombia, and it stimulates the economy in all the South-Western region of this country. You should know that here in Colombia, the pre-colonial construction was done by the standards and methods from the natives, and there were several groups and tribes, who definitely did not build their constructions the way presented in the attached photography. The colonial (Spanish) construction from 500 years ago was also different from this kind of construction presented in the photography. So, for me it is obvious that this kind of construction shown in the photography is definitely a heritage from a globalized concept of construction and economy. A concept that was not born here, and that has it’s roots in a different continent. Having made this analysis, I think it is safe to say that Colombia has had to learn about construction processes and materials the way it is done right now throughout the world, in order to make this new airport, which is also a foreign concept. Finally, I would like you to notice that if you zoom to the image, you would see two logos of two companies that are building this construction. One of them is a colombian company called Latco S.A. The other is Opway, a portuguese construction company.
