      As of the end of February this year, the China-Laos Railway has cumulatively transported over 29.5 million passengers and more than 33.5 million tons of freight, with over 7.6 million tons of cross-border cargo, worth over 30.1 billion yuan. The effect of the international golden corridor is increasingly evident, injecting new vitality into regional economic and social development, and becoming a path leading to development, happiness, and friendship for the people of both nations.

  Passenger traffic and quality have improved. The Chinese section of the China-Laos Railway operates an average of 51 passenger trains per day, with a maximum of 103,000 passengers sent in a single day, sending 24.9 million passengers. In the Laotian section, an average of 10 passenger trains operate per day, with more than 10 passenger cars in normal-speed passenger trains, reaching a maximum of 12,580 passengers sent in a single day, totaling 4.66 million passengers sent. Since the operation of international passenger trains on the China-Laos Railway, 148,000 cross-border passengers from 87 countries and regions have been sent.

  Transportation safety and stability have been ensured. The railway authority has strengthened infrastructure inspection, maintenance, and management, continuously ensuring the quality of equipment and facilities. It has withstood the severe tests of busy passenger and freight transport, as well as extreme weather conditions such as heavy rain seasons, earthquakes, etc., ensuring the safety and smoothness of international transportation channels. Furthermore, efforts have been made to train local railway talents in Laos, with about 1,556 railway operating personnel in the Laotian section, including 930 Laotian employees.
