China-Laos railway to be game changer


VIENTIANE: The China-Laos railway could be a game changer for the development of Laos but the government must have a clear plan on how to maximise the advantages offered by the railway, a businesswoman has said.

Local daily Vientiane Times yesterday quoted vice-president of the Lao National Chamber of Commerce and Industry, Valy Vetsapong, as saying that the railway will have a significant impact on Laos’ economy and will provide huge momentum in strengthening Laos’ connectivity with the rest of the region.
