Vietnam aims to start work on high-speed rail (HSR) lines to China by 2030, prioritizing connectivity to China over a previously considered North-South line within Vietnam. This project includes two major HSR links: one from the port cities of Haiphong and Quang Ninh to China's Yunnan province, and another from Hanoi to Guangxi province. Additionally, a third HSR line will connect Vietnam's capital, Hanoi, with its business hub, Ho Chi Minh City. Japan, which lost a bid in Indonesia to China and has yet to start the Thailand line, contrasts with China's project, which is already half done. The development is part of the broader Pan Asia High Speed Rail Network, aiming for economic integration between China and ASEAN countries, including a future bullet train from Shanghai to Singapore.

Though Americans were able to finish a transcontinental railroad more than 150 years ago, California is so incompetent at building new rail that I expect to be able to take a self-driving car from Los Angeles to San Francisco before I can take a high speed train. https://t.co/bGfH9ZfuRU

Even Japan… https://t.co/y3cte8nAkA
