Chinese outfit moots two new railway lines
A Chinese engineering firm has proposed adding a pair of new railway lines to Cambodia’s fledgling rail infrastructure, with the Ministry of Transportation saying they’re interested – if the company can pay for it. Representatives from Jiangxi International (Cambodia) Ltd met with Transportation Minister Sun Chanthol on September 12 and expressed interest in conducting feasibility studies for two new lines – one running from Banteay Meanchey’s Sisophon town to Siem Reap and one from Phnom Penh to Bavet in Svay Rieng.
