Print Edition
When the China-Laos Railway is complete by the end of this year, people will be able to travel from Shanghai to Vientiane, the Laos capital, in a day.
At the Shanghai Institute of Technology, a center for people-to-people exchanges between China and the Mekong region countries, including Laos, was established yesterday.
The 鈥淏elt and Road Lancang-Mekong Railway Connectivity Center鈥 was initiated by the institute, which has a rich history of participation in the construction of the railway and education exchanges with Laos.
From 2018, 25 students from Laos鈥 Souphanouvong University have studied engineering at the institute to become railway experts serving their country.
This year, 12 of them will qualify as railway engineers.
The China-Laos Railway, extending about 420 kilometers, will connect to the railway system in China at its north and to Thailand at the south.
It will become a part of the railway from Kunming, capital of southwest China鈥檚 Yunnan Province, to Singapore.
