In the realm of business and industry, a campaign is gaining traction in which the government is being urged to bolster the country’s standing as a prospective eco-friendly hub for logistics within the prominent Southeast East Asian alliance, the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN). Moreover, there is a strong emphasis on preparing businesses to adapt to the dawn of smart, eco-friendly industries.

The concept of Thailand having eco-friendly logistics is very, very humorous considering the fact that they are 70 years behind the curve when it comes to moving cargo around the nation. They are completely locked into the highways, where there are filthy diesel trucks of every size clogging the highways to no end, pouting the air, and making travel quite difficult for people in normal cars.

 

They desperately need to start building High-Speed Rail that can accommodate massive amounts of cargo. There is no way around that unless they want to build double decker highways with toll roads on top, throughout the entire nation, which would of course be prohibitively expensive. 

 

Something has to give. What they are doing now is the polar opposite of eco friendly.

Love the photo of the train...unfortunately, Thailand will never see anything like this on their rails....

Isnt it strange that the Signposts at level crossings, and a toy someone bought for my little boy, are represented by an old steam train with chimney & dome.
