Malaysia, Thailand urge construction of second bridge linking them


An agreement between Malaysia and Thailand on the construction of the second bridge that connects their localities demonstrates both countries’ commitment to accelerating regional economic growth, according to Malaysian Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim.

The PM said this at an Aug. 3 press conference following his working visit to Malaysia’s Rantau Panjang and Thailand’s Su-ngai Golok, where he also met with his Thai counterpart Srettha Thavisin.

Both nations agreed to focus on advancing several long-delayed key projects, some of which have been pending for decades.

On the second bridge, Anwar said the project is expected to take two years to complete once construction begins in April next year, but was also optimistic that the timeline could be expedited without compromising on quality.

While the bridge is under construction, Malaysia should also initiate development projects that create business opportunities, including stalls, small shops and improved commercial spaces around the bridge area to ensure the bridge not only serves as a vital connection but also boosts local businesses in Kelantan and Narathiwat, he added.

Upon completion of the second bridge, Anwar said the existing bridge, which has been connecting the two countries since 1971, will be upgraded.
