Japan is offering Thailand and other Southeast Asian nations financial and technical assistance to develop logistics infrastructure, aiming to help Japanese companies operating in Asean to lower their logistics costs by half within five years.
The financial aid would be provided in terms of soft loans for Asean countries to build infrastructure such as roads, bridges and tunnels to develop intra-region links, said Techa Boonyachai, who chairs a capacity-building committee for drafting the national Logistics and Supply Chain Policy.
Most of funds would be located to Cambodia, Laos and Vietnam, while Thailand would receive a smaller portion of the supports he said.
