Thailand and Malaysia have agreed to build a new road connecting the Sadao border checkpoint in Songkhla to Bukit Kayu Hitam town in Malaysia’s Kedah state to boost ties between the two countries.
The Southern Border Provinces Administrative Centre (SBPAC) deputy secretary-general Chonthun Sangpoom said on Thursday that the SBPAC and state agencies joined the second meeting of the Expert Working Group (EWG) between Thailand and Malaysia to discuss the transborder road on Tuesday.
Mr Chonthun led the group that was greeted by Muhammad Haizul Azreen bin Usol Ghafli, deputy undersecretary of Malaysia’s Ministry of Works.
The working groups focused on resolving pending issues in construction, such as the uneven width of the road connecting border checkpoints on both sides.
