Laos, Cambodia to develop land links, trade and investment
Laos and Cambodia have agreed to continue to strengthen cooperation and to develop land links to enhance trade and investment between the two nations. The plans arose from a meeting between Prime Minister Thongloun Sisoulith and his Cambodian counterpart Hun Sen when Mr Thongloun visited Cambodia from June 27-28. Another plan supported by both countries is to build a 145-metre bridge across the Xe Lam Phao River in Mounlapamok district, Champassak province to connect to Cambodia. A 78-kilometre road linking Mounlapamok district to the Xe Lam Phao bridge is also planned.
