China's high-speed rail "going global"
On the afternoon of October 24, witnessed by Thai Prime Minister Bayu, Chinese enterprises participated in the high-speed rail project of the East Economic Corridor (EEC) connecting the three airports in Thailand. An agreement signing ceremony was held at the Heping friendship building of the prime minister's office, with a total investment of 52.4 billion yuan.
this is China's first overseas high-speed railway investment signing project, and it is also another important achievement of China's high-speed railway's steady "going out" and Chinese enterprises' participation in major project cooperation along the "belt and road". It will vigorously promote China's high-speed railway's "going out" pace and enhance the influence of Chinese enterprises in Thailand and Southeast Asia's transportation infrastructure field.
China's high-speed railway, which has mature technology and completely independent intellectual property rights, has formed an independent "Chinese standard", and strides to the world, bringing opportunities to the development of all countries. On July 8, 2019, the World Bank released the report of China's high speed railway development, which shows the world high speed railway with a large number of detailed data: the business mileage exceeds the total business mileage of other countries in the world, compared with other countries in the world, China's high speed railway ticket price is the lowest; the construction cost is about 2 / 3 of the construction cost of other countries. From China's high-speed rail to Southeast Asia and Central Asia, the "China standard" has been successfully applied abroad again and again, which not only means the recognition of China's technology and quality, but also fully reflects the "high-speed rail diplomacy" strategy of the Chinese government, which is the best witness of China's comprehensive strength.
East Thailand Economic Corridor (EEC) connects the three airports high speed rail project. As an important step in Thailand's infrastructure construction and development, it will connect the three major airports of Langman airport, Suvarnabhumi Airport and Utapau airport through airport fast track and high speed rail, with a total mileage of 220km, a maximum speed of 250km / h, a construction period of 5 years and an operation period of 45 years. After the expiration of 50 years, the operator will transfer all the above facilities to the Thai government free of charge. The project is planned to be opened in 2024. After completion, the high-speed railway will bring about rapid flow of people, logistics, capital and information. The stations along the line will drive the development of urbanization in the region. During the construction phase of the project, about 16000 jobs will be directly generated. In the next five years, about 100000 jobs will be generated, bringing about a social and economic return of about 65 billion baht, bringing about local Thailand. High and new technology, to help the "Thailand 4.0" economic development plan, has become the gold key to improve the economic level of Thailand, and promote the economic development of ASEAN region. A 6031 a 6031 in just over ten years, harmony, EMU, large speed increase, intercity railway, passenger dedicated line, Fuxing, 350 kilometers per hour... New phrases unique to the era of high-speed rail record the brilliant progress of Chinese Railway step by step. The world re understands China through high-speed rail. At home, China's high-speed rail, as a "national card", goes abroad and "takes root" overseas. China's railway standard "going global" has settled in Mombasa Nairobi railway, Yawan high speed railway, China Laos railway, Addis Ababa Djibouti railway, China Thailand railway, Anyi high speed railway... China has expanded its railway network at an amazing speed, connecting the world into a close whole. In just a few years, China's high-speed rail cooperation has been going overseas, with leading technology, excellent quality and high-quality service benefiting overseas. China's innovation is making world sharing a reality.
now, "Fuxing" gallops, the high-speed rail network strides into the prairie, the desert, the rapid development of China's high-speed rail, has become a shining "national card". China's high-speed rail has run out of China's speed and created a miracle in China. In the vast land of the motherland, China's high-speed rail is weaving a huge mobile network, rewriting the space-time pattern of the whole Chinese society, and also providing Chinese wisdom to help the development of the world. Today's high-speed rail in China is not only the pride and pride of Chinese people, but also the carrier of hope and dream. The future of China's high-speed rail will speed up the pace of "going out", make China's speed, Chinese standards and Chinese charm more bright and colorful, and benefit the people of the world.
