It's AEC! AEC is on!
AEC is the ASEAN Economy Community. The purpose was to apply the Euro concept on ASEAN member states. Likely. Not entirely.
Land Bridge, in our context is to connect two countries (member states) via land border. Like what we have with Thailand.
When I first heard of land bridge, I visualized it as the physical land bridge, like what we have with Singapore... nope. To think of it, we don't have land border with Singapore!
But we do have with Brunei, Philippine and even Indonesia, I don't really sure (must do more study!).
Okay, back to land bridge, it's actually a concept of company to company or maybe government to government. It's a mutual understanding between two member states' company. Like right now, we have a good land bridge with Thailand's rail company, I mean our KTMB and the Thai Railways. That is one of the examples of land bridge, that we can be moving seamlessly from Malaysia to Thailand via land border.
This concept also applied to the cargo movement.
