RAIL FREIGHT TRANSPORTATION — A PROMISING DIRECTION IN LOGISTICS

On November 15, the Vietnamese Embassy in Russia held a conference on «Exploiting the potential of the Vietnam-China-Russia international route». 

Mr. Truong Hoang Minh in his welcoming speech noted the positive dynamics in cooperation between Vietnam, Russia and China. Cooperation in rail freight transportation, including intermodal transportation, plays an increasing role in this.

According to forecasts, the volume of rail freight transportation will increase 3-4 times in the coming years.

At the end of the conference, Mr. Dang Minh Khoi summarized the results of the conference, noting the potential of rail freight transportation between the three countries and the development of the Vietnam-China-Russia corridor, and called on entrepreneurs and government officials to exchange relevant information on logistics, economics, and amendments to regulations of the countries, and to hold seminars on trade and economic relations for entrepreneurs.
