China-Laos Railway Boosts Laos’ Rubber Industry

The recent opening of the China-Laos Railway has been a game-changer for Laos' rubber industry, providing producers with unprecedented access to the vast markets of China and beyond.

Take Phet Jaidee, a dedicated rubber tapper. With the new transport link, Phet's income has seen a significant increase, allowing him and his family to enjoy a higher standard of living.

This railway isn't just a track on the ground; it's a lifeline that has ushered in a new era of economic growth for Laos, connecting communities and driving progress across the nation.
