if you want to get rich, you must first build roads. this saying is indeed timeless. in southeast asia, many countries do not have sufficient funds and technology, so they look for china, the infrastructure maniac, to cooperate in building roads. after the project is completed, china will obtain a certain proportion of the operating rights for a certain number of years according to the agreement, so that the investment will not be wasted.

not long ago, two china-related cooperation projects in cambodia and vietnam were launched. cambodia is digging a canal by water. after opening, it can not only save money and avoid unnecessary detours, but also effectively avoid being blocked by vietnam. vietnam is a railway, and china provides it with standard-gauge railway project planning and feasibility study report support. after completion, this will be conducive to vietnam's trade with china. the time for loading and unloading trains is eliminated, and naturally the transaction efficiency is higher. it can be said that these two things are of strategic significance to cambodia and vietnam respectively, and the cambodian and vietnamese officials are vigorously promoting this.

perhaps because others are working hard, on september 9, according to the bangkok post, thailand's deputy transport minister surapong said that he is actively pushing thailand's new prime minister petunthan to approve the final construction contract for the first phase of the china-thailand railway project.
