Until these muppets start charging for use of the poles the same dangerous over-crowded situation will arise again and again 

 

You don't have this overhead wire problem in the West because vendors have to pay to use the pole, and if the customer stops paying them they have an incentive to remove the unused wires.  Unfortunately the squatter mentality is alive and well here so there will just be more of the same in the future 

 

The only advantage of underground cabling is that every Somchi with a ladder can't add their wires to the mess  

Overhead wires are common in parts of the USA . Lack of local government investment combined with poor planning laws.

Which they often don't. A new start with them underground is just what is needed.

 

 

So there's a quick and cheap solution - employ people to tie up wires all over town for the next 50 - 100 years, until they get them under.

 

oh, yeah.... and take out unused wires which I estimate make up about 75% of the spider webs we see.

As roads will probably be torn up, new drains laid, and resurfaced in the next few years put the working cables underground at the same time. Don't have to wait 50 or more years, 5 to 10 should do it.
