VN wants to be on China's good side; Developement of Beijing-Hanoi-Vientiane-Phnom Penh axis to come next?

May 11, 2007
Vietnam wants to foster friendly, cooperative ties with China
"China wants Vietnam to develop the rail route from Hanoi to Lang Son and another from southern Ho Chi Minh City to Cambodia's Phnom Penh capital, and that China will offer Vietnam loans for the development of the two rail routes."
Vietnam's party, state and people always want to expand and deepen friendly neighborly and multifaceted cooperative relations with China in general, and with the Guangxi Autonomous Region in particular, Vietnamese Prime Minister Nguyen Tan Dung stated here Thursday.

Vietnam supports initiatives and wishes of the two sides on various spheres, including the development of the "two economic corridors and one economic belt," key roads and railways, joint border economic zones and border committees; Vietnam's participation in the upcoming China-ASEAN trade fair; and completion of border demarcation, Dung said while meeting with visiting Liu Qibao, secretary of the Guangxi Autonomous Region Committee of the Communist Party of China.

"We support the construction and development of the 'economic corridors and one economic belt,' and we are ready to cooperate with China in researching and calculating their possible expansion to 'one axis and two wings,'" the Vietnamese prime minister said, stating that the corridors and the belt are beneficial to China, Vietnam and the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN).

Earlier, Liu said the corridors and the Beibu Gulf economic belt, which involves China's southern areas and Vietnam's northern and central ones, are a starting point of one economic axis running from Nanning, capital of Guangxi, to Singapore, and two wings that include the Greater Mekong Sub-region and the Beibu Gulf.

Dung said the key to success of the corridors and the belt is the construction and improvement of highways running from Vietnam's Hanoi capital to northern Lang Son province bordering China, and from Hanoi to northern Hai Phong city and northern Quang Ninh province also bordering the country; and the development of rail routes.

Liu said that China wants Vietnam to develop the rail route from Hanoi to Lang Son and another from southern Ho Chi Minh City to Cambodia's Phnom Penh capital, and that China will offer Vietnam loans for the development of the two rail routes.

The Vietnamese prime minister said his country supports the establishment of border economic zones in border areas of Vietnam and China, especially ones in Lang Son and Guangxi.

Vietnam will send hundreds of enterprises to Nanning to participate in the upcoming 4th China-ASEAN trade fair slated for late October, Dung said, noting that he attended the two previous events.

"The organization of the annual China-ASEAN trade fair is very practical to the development of a China-ASEAN free trade area. It is beneficial to China in general, Guangxi in particular, and Vietnam," Dung stated.

He said Vietnam will promote the formation of joint border working committees which will help boost trade and economy in border areas as suggested by Liu.

Vietnam also wants to see the process of demarcating sea and land borders and planting of border marks going smoothly as scheduled, Dung said, adding that Vietnam would like to join hands with China as well as relevant countries in finely settling outstanding issues relating to the South China Sea.

    At present more than 99% of the world leaders have praised for China economic development and her social development. Most country included USA, France, Russia are doing good business with China. China has supplied almost 50% of the world industrial products. China has ranked the world No 1 in foreign reserve with more than 10,000 billions dollars in reserve. Chinese leaders now have ranked as the world best leaders who cared very much their people and their country. In the last 10 years , China was the most economic growing country and has the most middle classes people with more 300 millions people are millionnaires. Only wise people can predict accurate future.Areak Prey

    Well yeah, but I don't think they
    got 10 trillions in the reserves.
    I think you made a typo. It should
    be somewhere between 1-1.1
    trillions. However for the
    population of 1 billion+, this
    worked out to only about 1000 USD/
    capita, nothing to be thrill about.

    Anyhow, yes, China will eventually
    become the economic superpower
    also as many expert forecasted.

    However, the thing to notice here
    is that the experts did not
    praised India as much as they did
    China. In order words, experts
    started to recorgnized the
    advantage of Autocracy government
    more and more. I mean the
    government ability to pass law
    extremely quick ... and to get
    thing done much faster to meet
    their need than Democracy government.

    As for China has 300 millions
    people who are millionaires, I said
    you made quite a big typo, buddy,
    but I will let you do the math
    yourself, if you don't mind, hehehe.

    Well, they knew that after Hanoi
    has been pounded by Chinese
    bombers in the late 70's. However,
    as usual, the vietcong is no push-
    over, so we shouldn't be fooled by
    this case.
