Speakers also called for all members to make full use of the exhibition platform and new SSACEIF initiatives to promote win-win outcomes.
At the launch ceremony, guests were updated on the latest progress in construction of the China-Laos Railway via video streaming. They also witnessed the launch of a trial train at Lincang Station in the China-Myanmar Economic Corridor, as well as the signing ceremony for a pilot regional administration for cross-border animal diseases, and a provincial operating platform for China-Laos International Freight Trains.
