SRT meets Thai Ambassador to boost Thai-Malaysian railway cooperation
“During the visit, discussions focused on strengthening cooperation in rail transport, particularly the progress of the rail link project between Thailand and Malaysia. This includes the ASEAN Express project, which will facilitate the movement of goods from China, through Laos, into Thailand, and onward to Malaysia. This initiative aims to enhance economic competitiveness and efficiently support the regional supply chain.”
“Additionally, the two sides discussed the development of international train services, particularly the route between Bangkok’s Krung Thep Aphiwat Station and Butterworth Station in Penang, Malaysia. The goal is to create a seamless travel connection between the two countries, marking a key strategy in advancing rail systems within the ASEAN region.”
