In this episode of the 10-Minute SEA Discussion Podcast, Nora explores Vietnam’s ambitious North-South Express Railway project. Approved by the National Assembly in late 2024, this $67 billion high-speed rail line will connect Hanoi to Ho Chi Minh City in just six hours. Uniquely, Vietnam has decided to self-fund the project without foreign loans, raising questions about financial sustainability and execution challenges. Tune in to learn more about how this bold move could redefine Vietnam’s transportation sector.
