NanLaew Posted September 1, 2022 Share Posted September 1, 2022 That was quick. It was only maybe ten days ago that some Thai government wonks were off to meet with their Chinese counterparts to see if this on-again, off-again project could be kick-started. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Check out the families of any recently bought land. In civilised countries this is known as insider dealing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jingjai9 Posted September 2, 2022 Share Posted September 2, 2022 If the Part of the megaproject has yet to be built from the Thai border with Laos, then what is that construction for in Nong Khai Province.? It looks like a huge overpass being built over the main road just outside the Muang district. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still dragging their heels on this one. Anyone would think they have changed their minds but no-one has the guts to tell Xi. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
