Will Thailand\u2019s plan to connect the Pacific and Indian Ocean revolutionise shipping? Or is it a desperate bid to gain foreign investment for a stagnant economy?<\/p>\n

When Thailand\u2019s Ayutthaya-era ruler Narai the Great wanted to establish a maritime silk road between Thailand and the rest of the world in 1677, he envisioned digging what would have been the world\u2019s first mega-canal.<\/p>\n

A manmade waterway on the narrowest part of the Malay Peninsula, between Chumphon on the Gulf of Thailand and Ranong by the Andaman Sea, would slice through 50 kilometres of land, bisecting the Tenasserim Mountain Range that runs from Tibet to Malaysia, and bringing trade into Thailand that would otherwise need to navigate the Strait of Malacca between Malaysia, Sumatra, and modern-day Singapore.<\/p>\n

For nearly 400 years, numerous Thai administrations have fixated on the idea of creating a shipping route through Thailand\u2019s Kra Isthmus. And current Thai Prime Minister Srettha Thavisin is no exception. He has made a USD28-billion land bridge that would bypass one of the world\u2019s busiest shipping lanes central to his first year in office. Indeed, the premier spent November and December of 2023 travelling the world in a bid to raise investment.<\/p>\n

\u201cI believe this presents an unprecedented opportunity to invest in this commercially and strategically important project that connects the Pacific Ocean and the Indian Ocean, connecting people in the East with the West,\u201d he said during the 2023 APEC Leaders Meeting in San Francisco.<\/p>\n

Srettha\u2019s estimates say that the land bridge would create an additional 280,000 jobs for the region while boosting Thailand\u2019s GDP by 5.5 percent. For shipping companies, it would potentially lower transportation costs by 15 percent in addition to cutting four days off journey times, according to Thai authorities.<\/p>\n

On the ground, construction is set to commence in 2025, with a completion date in 2039, although the first phase of the project\u2014which will see the construction of deep-sea shipping ports in Ranong and Chumphon\u2014is slated for completion in 2030. Other developments include a onemetre gauge railway line to connect ports with the existing southern rail track, a motorway, and a gas and oil pipeline.<\/p>\n

Any infrastructure will bring with it new commercial and industrial real estate opportunities. The government has said that it\u2019s studying to establish new industrial estates in Ranong, Chumphon, Nakhon Si Thammarat, and Surat Thani. It has also announced plans for a Special Economic Zone Act that would ease regulations on global goods travelling between the Gulf of Thailand and the Andaman Sea.<\/p>\n

Investors in the corridor may also find themselves beneficiaries of concessions for shipping and logistics. Speaking to the heads of nearly 30 Japanese companies in December, transport minister Suriya Jungrungreangkit raised the prospect of a 50-year concession for any successful bidder for the land bridge project. The Industrial Estate Authority of Thailand is currently investigating where any new industrial estates might be located<\/p>\n

If Srettha\u2019s land bridge is successful, it would eat into the trade that runs through the heavily congested Strait of Malacca, which sees 90,000 ships pass through it every year, or 40 percent of the global shipping trade, according to Reuters. Any economic benefits that the land bridge would bring to Thailand may come at the expense of its neighbours, Singapore, and Malaysia, where the maritime industry accounts for up to 40 percent of the gross domestic product (GDP).<\/p>\n

Thailand\u2019s inland logistics for shipping companies are notoriously inefficient. It currently takes at least a day to freight goods from Thailand\u2019s main deep-sea port, Laem Chabang, according to Piset Rittapirom, chairman of the Bangkok Shipowners and Agents Association. Even the Thai government concedes that its best-case estimate of 15 percent transportation-cost cuts could be as low as four percent for some countries.<\/p>\n

Most concerning to Thailand might be the lack of interest from China. In the past, China has looked favourably on a canal linking the Gulf of Thailand (and by extension the South China Sea) with the Andaman Sea, thereby alleviating China\u2019s over-reliance on the Malacca Strait, through which it imports up to 70 percent of its oil from the Middle East. But it may see less strategic and political significance in a land shipping route.<\/p>\n

\u201cChina is not convinced [of what] it can expect from the project,\u201d Lu Xiang, a senior researcher with the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, told the South China Morning Post, explaining that the cost of offloading and reloading cargo is likely to be complex and potentially no more cost-effective.<\/p>\n

The project has also alarmed local environmental rights campaigners, who submitted a letter of opposition to the Transport Ministry in September. The Srettha government has yet to carry out any serious environmental impact assessment (EIA). What is known is that the land bridge will run within three kilometres of Mu Ko Ranong National Park and Laemson Marine National Park.<\/p>\n

The president of the Tourism Association of Koh Samui, Ratchaporn Poolsawadee, expressed his concern to the Bangkok Post. \u201cTourism has been a major income provider for people across nearby islands such as Koh Samui, Koh Phangan, and Koh Tao. The revenue generated goes to the local community. Each year these areas earn more than THB100 billion in revenue from tourism,\u201d he says.<\/p>\n

So far, any outside investment into the land bridge remains speculative. Though the Thai government has spoken of interest from foreign investors in the US, Germany, and Japan, nothing is yet certain. In December, it released the national fiscal budget for 2025, which lays bare a huge deficit as it increases public spending by 9.3 percent. The government needs foreign money, but foreign money for the land bridge is unlikely to come without a thorough environmental impact survey and the due diligence needed to improve Thailand\u2019s land shipping infrastructure.<\/p>\n

As Srettha focuses efforts on gaining investor support, many observers believe the new Thai government is putting the cart before the horse.<\/p>\n
