New Road Link Promises Stronger Malaysia-Thailand Economic Ties
File photo courtesy: The long-anticipated road alignment project connecting Malaysia and Thailand's key border checkpoints is nearing completion, promising to strengthen bilateral trade and ties. The project links Malaysia’s Bukit Kayu Hitam Immigration, Customs, Quarantine, and Security (ICQS) complex with Thailand’s Sadao Customs, Immigration, and Quarantine (CIQ) complex, with the road expected to open by the year's end. Ahmad Fahmi Ahmad Sarkawi, the Consul General of Malaysia in Songkhla, confirmed that the new CIQ complex on the Thai side was completed a few years back. However, the road connection faced delays due to technical complications. Once Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim assumed office, he prioritised the project's completion, leading to a resumption in 2023. With technical issues resolved, the road alignment aims for full completion by July or August. The road is anticipated to become operational by the end of 2025, fostering economic benefits for both nations. Additionally, plans for a second bridge linking Rantau Panjang in Kelantan with Sungai Golok in Narathiwat are advancing. The project is addressing final technical details, recognising the complexity and safety demands of bridge construction. Once these are resolved, construction will commence on schedule. Ahmad Fahmi emphasised the transformational impact these infrastructure developments will have on strengthening trade and tourism between Malaysia and Thailand. Furthermore, Thailand plans to enhance CIQ facilities at Wang Kelian and Padang Besar, further bolstering cross-border connections. As of 2023, Thailand holds the position of Malaysia's sixth-largest global trading partner and the second-largest within ASEAN, with trade exchanges amounting to RM113.16 billion (approximately ฿890 billion). These infrastructure projects are set to catalyse even greater economic integration and collaboration between the two countries, reported The Nation. -- 2025-02-13
