Thailand’s $36BN Mega Land Bridge Project
The Kra Canal could have transformed global shipping. Yet, despite being revisited over the centuries, it remains unbuilt. Now, however, the Thai government supports the $36 billion Mega Land Bridge Project, which features two new deep-water ports in Ranong in the west and Chumphon in the east, acting as major international shipping hubs. In this video, we explore why the Kra Canal never took off and consider whether a land bridge might be a better solution.

Very nice. But - poor pronunciation of French terms. (The French will not appreciate that.) And the purported depiction of Bishop Sully was all wrong! (Some dude in whiskers and the uniform of a Second Empire military man or aristocrat.) I don't believe there are any depictions of him since he lived more than 800 years ago!
Correction on a lot of subjects but one is Melbourne is not second largest city in Australia but the largest city in Australia by more than 150,000 people.
Heh Boondaberg
Then China is done.
What do you think the immediate consequences would be if the Three Gorges Dam collapsed?
This reeks of AI. Thumbs down.
It took Victoria the year 2015 and after to have initiative to build the majority of road and rail infrastructure? what where all the previous governments preoccupied with?
What’s with the repetitiveness?!
Waste of time. Just rename the video "ChatGPT making a painfully repetitive 8 minute script out of one paragraph of information"
And it's still much more informative than most of the videos on youtube.
Ikr!!!!
You haven’t seen the mess in Malta 🇲🇹
Is there really a solution in sight? We've been hearing whispers about a new bridge proposal, but we're skeptical-could this actually happen?

Thumbnail is clickbait. Sydney Metro is Australia's biggest transport project, and construction project in general, not North East Link.
Yep and Sydney Metro is also going to be bigger than Melbourne's unwanted SRL and is being built at around 1/4 of the price.
Il est évident que ce canal seine nord Europe, coûtera le triple ce qui est annoncé. La partie du Département de la Somme sera la olus mal gérée. Gabegie due aux politiques locaux qui n'ont pas les capacités. Ils ne sont que des carrièristes, minés par la crétinerie. Ils seront donc en partie responsables de la gabegie financière annoncée....Rendez vous dans qq années ! Par contre, les extrêmes de ces régions, perdureront, neonazisme en premier plan...
SO, WHAT'S THE DATE?
Los Angeles could have been a lot further ahead in its public transport development if at least one of four things happened: 1. The interurban and streetcar trolley systems were maintained instead of abandoned and torn up. 2. One of the earlier rapid transit construction referenda (1949, '68, '74) was approved. 3. One of the German monorail construction firm's offers to build monorails was accepted. 4. A triggered local Congressman and Republicans in Congress hadn't voted to stop subway construction within the city due to a 1985 methane explosion under a Ross Dress For Less shop.
When mini-countries dream of mega projects, it ends a little before it begins. 😁😁
Hope Boeing isn't building these
How about the Pacific Ocean, the biggest geographic place in our planet so deep you can fit Mt. Everest in side and still have almost a mile left to spare. Only there’s Salt we have the infrastructure for desalination there is no reason why they’re so against it.
cheesy narration
It is not replacing anything - it is a brand new route. And there is no Russian railways in the Baltic states.
Production in megawatt from single unit?
Great solution way cheaper and energy efficient than reverse osmosis. Other western states need more water that can come from the Mississippi river. Also a solution to end flooding problems for New Orleans is to build water pipelines, preferably next to major highways to expedite and facilitate the construction, to use the Mississippi river excess water to refill Lake Powell and Lake Mead is important for National security as it allows greater agriculture instead of the current curtailment. It also allows food exports which improves global security and dollar strength through greater exports. We should strive for enough excess agriculture to create a grain food bank like China. One option is a pipeline from Memphis area reservoir or Keokuk reservoir to Lake Powell. 2-axis floating solar on Lake Mead and Lake Powell could be used to maximize solar power hours and use the excess solar power for pumping water through the pipelines. The Western USA has a lot of agriculture potential with agrivoltaics, a win win with water being a limiting factor. The Western mega drought is curtailing farming. The USA needs a new pipeline from the massive excess water Louisiana Mississippi River bypass (Atchafalaya flood way basin) to Colorado River reservoirs could solve all the west mega drought problems and be great for agriculture and pay for itself. The Arizona, Western USA and New Orleans water crisis is easy to solve with a pipeline from the Atchafalaya flood way basin in Louisiana that would take excess flow from the Mississippi River and store it in lake Mead or lake Powell. Cost $21 Billion, but it will pay for itself and make a lot of money with an expansion of agriculture in the West. Call your Senators and Representative to request support for the "Coalition For A National Infrastructure Bank" H.R. 4052, which is an excellent plan to build a pipeline from the Atchafalaya flood way basin using only a small percentage to refill Lake Mead and Powell. Search for nibcoalition national-infrastructure-bank-petition-water-crisis Call Congress for HR4052 and Share Her is plenty of water if we actually stop dumping it in the Gulf of Mexico. Call your Senators and Representative to request support for the "Coalition For A National Infrastructure Bank" which has an excellent plan to build a pipeline from the Atchafalaya flood way basin using only a small percentage to refill Lake Mead and Powell. According to Wikipedia, "The Mississippi River floods most years, usually in late spring when runoff is at its peak. The intensity of flooding can vary from year to year, and some years can be devastating. For example, the Great Mississippi Flood of 1927 was one of the most destructive floods in US history, destroying thousands of homes and businesses. The 2019 flood was also significant, lasting 235 days and surpassing the 1927 flood's record of 152 days above flood stage. "
I tried a couple of China's slow trains about 15 years ago. I mostly just went with the sleepers or soft bench. I rather enjoyed the ride and views. I also met some really interesting locals and foreigners. By the way, American 'high speed rail' is only slightly faster than these slow trains. But these trains were far safer.
No matter how much money you spend if there's no accountability you may has well flush it down the toilet. Where's the billion$ that was supposed to help the homeless?
I know, at times N=cal flushes our excess rain into the ocean. Shipping it to socal makes sense as long as the biological systems that depend on the input of fresh water aren't affected. Our fisheries have really suffered lately, but that's from unregulated over fishing. Never ask a fisherman if he'd rather make $1,000,000 this year and none the next ten+ years or $100,000 a year forever.
ha that's funny... I've been saying this for a long time. the water from the delta is a wasted run off when it could be used to aliviate water shortage throughout the state.
bad idea

Can you really reduce congestion by building more road?
A lot of word salad

It's sad, even if Rail Baltica will be finished, it will not change outdated rail connections, going to other Latvian cities in regions.
Are you really saing M M? Seriously?
Its an AI saying it.
So expensive no industry and people there. Who and how will pay?
There IS industry and people there. And building it will help to attract more of both. 85% paid by EU, 15% by the countries themselves.
Ruzzian railways suck! I support this EU project 110%
It sounds like a great road to be stuck in traffic on because bike paths and public transport would be too cheap, I guess.
@@alexhing1391 it's a major truck route and a bloody nightmare
You could at least give credit when taking our 3D animations without permission
Apologies for the oversight! We've added credit in the description. We'll be more careful in the future. Thanks for understanding!
It will bring jobs, but cause noise and pollution. With 24-hour operations, the new airport will impact people's sleep and quality of life. The unfinished North West metro between Talawong and St Marys will bring increased traffic and congestion on the alreagy overloaded existing west rail line.
Sydney IS Australia's largest city.
melbourne is
It's a bit stupid to build new roads when it has been proven that building new motorways will just make traffic congestion worse.
Maybe we should use this brilliant logic to cut down roads to make things less worse. Ever seen what happens when even a single lane is blocked during busy hours?
The okc thunder, Russell westbrook, kd, n shai is literally the only thing I think of when someone mentions Oklahoma City why tf yall building the tallest building in America there🤣
@@Doubleshake one of the fastest growing cities in the country, and it has always been that way since its creation, the city said to have the most potential in the country, The more it stands out and more random of a city, the more recognition the tower gets, if it was in Chicago or nyc, it wouldn’t get the same level of tourism or recognition because it’s expected. That’s why so many people are making videos on it, people wouldn’t make videos on it if it was in New York. Dubai was a lot less known than OKC in the early 2000s yet they built the tallest building in the world, that building is what led to it getting as big as it did, there is a extremely high chance that this tower would do the exact same for OKC if built. OKC is also known for a lot of other stuff than the thunder, the biggest act of terrorism in history before 9/11 (the OKC bombing), some of the countries most known Route 66 attractions, multiple famous museums, inventing stuff used world wide, like the shopping cart, or voice mail, being the birthplace of some country wide businesses, like sonic, or loves. OKC is a great place for this tower, they want it to stick out to get that more tourism, so what better place to put it, than a top 5 city for business, a top 5 growing city, one of the most well known medium sized cities, one of the most improving cities, the city ranked to be the best managed in the country, the city ranked the 16th best place to live, and 10th best for college students.
Yes. This huge public transit infrastructure project will be yet another game changer for the LA Metro. The Regional Connector in 1023. D line subway extension section 1 in 2025. LAX People Mover in 2026. D line subway extension section 2 in 1026. Dline subway extension section 3 in 2027. Unthinkable builds, indeed!
Typical of both State and Federal Governments in Australia not building infrastructure for the near foreseeable future. Not well planned. One runway only. The cost to expand later will be massively more costlier than if constructed now. Similar to our so called freeways that link the major cities and towns within NSW plus QLD and VIC.
I am very sad that Melbourne keeps on building roads and highways, but they cannot build the airport rail line. Sydney is building a new airport that will have a metro line.
Australia's biggest city - Melbourne, is perfectly capable of walking AND chewing gum possum.
Sydney has the Kirribilli ATM .
@@davidpearn5925 yes, well the Melbourne airport rail has been delayed so many times that it’s quite obvious that walking is all we’ll be doing anytime soon.
@@JimmiAlli the buses make the proposition a fairly marginal business and the Sydney run was a loss maker the last I heard. The ones who constantly talk about it rarely use it anyway. They just grab a pre-booked taxi from home.
@@davidpearn5925 if this were the case, why are they building a metro line to the western Sydney airport?
