Laos needs to seize opportunities offered by Laos-China railway
VIENTIANE (Vientiane Times/ANN) – The government has acknowledged that it needs to be well prepared to provide transit services in an effort to benefit from the Laos-China railway.
Minister of Planning and Investment Dr Souphan Keomixay told Vientiane Times recently that the government is encouraging private enterprises to develop infrastructure and other facilities along the rail route.
These include the development of tourism sites and industrial parks as well as trade facilitation-related projects to capitalise on the potential of the US$5.9-billion project.
