  2. BRI Tactics • The rail line originating in Kunming will improve connectivity between China and Southeast Asia. • High-speed railway will better facilitate mobility of capital and labour.

  3. Southeast Asia – a low-hanging fruit • The most feasible, and the most important in Southeast Asia, is the central line, which involves the richest ASEAN countries. • China and Japan competed fiercely to sell high-speed railway to the Thai government. • China should (i) import more from Thailand; (ii) increase FDI to protect economic ties.

  4. Automation drive is essential and welcome Faced with aging, rising cost, and declining economic growth, China needs automation to boost productivity and maintain competitiveness.
