SRT Directed to Expedite Sino-Thai Railway Completion by 2024
The State Railway of Thailand (SRT) has been instructed to finalise the Sino-Thai high-speed railway project by the first quarter of next year. This directive, targeted at newly appointed SRT Director Veeris Ammarapala, was announced by Transport Minister Suriya Jungrungreangkit. Veeris, endorsed recently by the Cabinet, will present his policy framework to the SRT by early next month. His immediate tasks include tackling the SRT’s overwhelming 230-billion-baht debt and transitioning logistics transportation predominantly from road to rail, aligning with governmental preferences. Additionally, the SRT is tasked with expediting the selection of a private bidder for the 298-billion-baht second phase of the double-track railway project covering six routes. Another significant goal is to hasten the construction of the 356-kilometre Nakhon Ratchasima-Nong Khai section of the Sino-Thai high-speed railway, valued at 341.35 billion baht. This section's completion is targeted within the first quarter of next year, after which a private operator for the railway concession will be sought. “In 2025, Thailand and China will celebrate 50 years of diplomatic relations. Therefore, the SRT must complete both phases of the Sino-Thai high-speed railway project swiftly,” emphasised Suriya. The first phase connects Bangkok to Nakhon Ratchasima over 250 kilometres, while the second phase includes the Nakhon Ratchasima-Nong Khai section. Both phases are scheduled to be operational by 2028, enhancing Thailand's rail infrastructure significantly. File photo for reference only -- 2024-09-19 -

Former Army Chief Set to Lead Neo-Conservative Party
In common parlance (call it woke, call it PC) it's ageism. It's not generally tolerated in the West. On this forum, all forms of bigotry are tolerated. Just read the American election threads! The unwoke call it free speech. -
