Analysis of Lao's Interests toward Kumning-Viantiane High-Speed Railway Project with China

This paper talks about an analysis of Lao's interest in working with China
on the High-Speed Railway (HSR) project between Kumning, China, and
Viantiane, Lao. Using a method called "foreign policy analysis," this paper
looks at four factors that Lao considers when deciding whether or not to
work with China. The first is that Lao is close to China and has a similar
climate. Second, China's strength in the economy. Third, the stability of
China's political system. Fourth, China's population, which has to do with
the tourism industry and improving Lao' human resources. The authors of
this paper say that the results show that a number of indicators make it
possible for Lao to connect to the rest of the world through the HSR
project, make more contributions to the region, and become more
competitive on both the regional and international levels.
