Plans for construction of a 5th Thai-Lao friendship bridge across the Mekong River, between Bung Kan province of Thailand and Pak Sane town of Bolikhamxai province if Laos, will be raised for discussion when Transport Minister Chadchat Suttipunt visits Laos on Feb 21.
Mr Chadchat said he will meet Vietiane's Minister of Communications, Transport, Post and Construction, Sommat Phonsena, and discuss the bridge plan.
The proposed bridge would not only connect the transport networks in the region but also boost the expansion of trade and investment between neighbouring countries.
