The Ministry of Transport said that, in implementing the Prime Minister’s Directive No. 03/CT- TTg, the transport sector has accelerated the implementation of yearly plans and projects since the beginning of this year, including those on international freight transportation services, thus facilitating cross-border exporting activities.

Kep Station has seen its infrastructure upgraded after the ministry decided to turn it into an international one, with all items now ready for the first phase of operation.

A bonded warehouse is expected to be built at the station to serve import and export activities of enterprises in the provinces of Bac Giang and Bac Ninh and neighbouring localities. It will specialise in receiving refrigerated containers transported from the south which will then be exported to China.
