High-speed train on track for 2015
Click to enlarge
The high-speed train project linking Thailand, Laos and southern China’s Kunming province could start in 2015 in time for the launch of the Asean Economic Community, people with knowledge of the matter said on the sidelines of the Asia Europe Meeting in Vientiane from November 5 to 6.
The project envisions a train capable of speeds of 200 km/h running from Yunnan province to Laos and Nong Khai in northeastern Thailand. From there, passengers and cargo can travel to Bangkok and Thailand’s industrial province of Rayong as well as south to Malaysia and Singapore.
Work on the China-Laos route, which will cost $7 billion, is expected to begin shortly. The project will be financed by the Export-Import Bank of China under a 30-year loan, with China responsible for construction.
Plans to build a train link from Kunming to Singapore were initiated by Chinese and ASEAN leaders at the seventh ASEAN summit in 2001. Construction on the project, ultimately covering 3,900 kilometers, began last year with the China-Vientiane link, with the entire line expected to be fully complete in 2020. Work on the Kunming-Yangon line and a larger project connecting Kunming with Vientiane, Bangkok, Kuala Lumpur and Singapore is expected to start later this year.
Laos is now also developing a railway link to Vietnamat costs of $4 billion, the Vientiane Times reported on November 6. The construction will take five years to complete.
The master concession agreement has been signed between the Laotian government and Giant Consolidated Ltd, a Malaysian company, to develop the 220 kilometer track from Savannakhet to Lao Bao, near the Vietnam border.

One river, one land: The fourth Thai-Lao bridge is about to take shape to furtherexpand trade volume among six regional countries by Phitsanu Thepthong
The newly proposed fourth Thai-Lao Friendship Bridge, to be built across the Mekong River in Chiang Rai soon, will further increase trade and travel not only between the two countries but also among the six countries in the Greater Mekong Subregion (GMS).The third Thai-Lao bridge linking Nakhon Panom with Khammuan is now 70% completed and will open for public use in November this year.
The GMS comprises countries sharing the Mekong River: Cambodia, Laos, Burma, Thailand, Vietnam and China's Yunnan province and Guangxi Zhuang autonomous region.
The bidding for the construction contract of the new bridge over the Mekong River was held last year, according to Viroon Kumpilo, president of the Chiang Rai Chamber of Commerce.
"The cost of the bridge is estimated at approximately 1.4 billion baht, and will be equally funded by the Chinese and Thai governments," he told the Bangkok Post.
The project, part of North-South Economic Corridor International Bridge Project, will link Hueisay of Bo Keo in Laos and Chiang Khong district of Chiang Rai.
"It will connect with Route 3A (East), running between Bangkok, Chiang Rai and Kunming in South China and wouldbenefit commercial traffic between the two countries through Laos's Laungnamtha province," he said.
The new bridge is expected to be completed by Dec 10 next year, and will be located at Ban Don Maha Wan, Chiang Khong, and Ban Don Khee Nok, Hueisay, Bo Keo. Mr Viroon expects that the trade potential of both lignite imports from Laos and Thai consumer goods and commodities will be stimulated by the new route.
Meanwhile, he noted that a second, larger port is now under construction in Chiang Rai's Chiang Saen district in order to link Mekong River routes between China, Laos, Burma, and Thailand. The original Chiang Saen port is nowoverwhelmed by the increase in cross-border traffic.
The construction work of the fourth bridge, is going to start soon around March this year, said Mr Viroon, adding that the date of the foundation stone-laying or ground-breaking ceremony was being worked out.
Meanwhile, the Vientiane Times newspaper quoted Thaworn Worabutre, the deputy director of the bridge construction project, as saying that the construction work for the 480-metre-long bridge, linking Hueisai and Chiang Khong, will take about 30 months to complete.
