Thailand Advances Southern Land Bridge Amid Hormuz Tensions

Thailand's government is optimistic about the economic benefits of developing a southern land bridge, aiming to enhance regional trade and reduce reliance on maritime routes near the Strait of Hormuz. This project could reshape trade flows in Southeast Asia by providing an alternative corridor for goods, potentially boosting Thailand's role as a logistics hub. The move comes as concerns rise over security and stability in the Hormuz region, prompting countries to seek safer trade routes.
