“Strengthening International Cooperation in GMS’s Rail Industry”
The railways in the GMS have developed independently over the course of a century and are today, with the exception of a connection between the PRC and Myanmar, a collection of national railway networks that do not interconnect. Each national railway has developed into a unique system with its own standards and procedures. In view of escalating subregional trade,growing concerns over climate change and, more recently, sharply fluctuating fuel costs, the GMS countries have accelerated their plans for upgrading their national railway networks and for interconnecting these by constructing new railway connections.
