VIENTIANE (Agencies): China aims to scale up infrastructure construction in uniquely strategic Laos to accelerate trade and investment throughout South-East Asia as Chinese businesses scout for space to grow offshore, analysts said.
China Premier Li Qiang said during a four-day visit to the South-East Asian nation earlier this month that he would work with Laotian officials to turn Laos from landlocked to “land-linked”, according to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
