PHNOM PENH: A Chinese-Asean delegation of 25 journalists is embarking on a tour that aims to explore the potential of the Laos-China Railway link. The railway line connects the Asean nations with China, by turning land-locked Laos into a land transport hub.

The week-long media tour is being organised by the Chinese Mission to Asean and China Daily, and intends to demonstrate how the railway, which began operations in December 2021, benefits the flow of people, goods and capital, boosting industrial development along the route, along with people’s livelihoods.
