    Chapter 3 Economic Potential of the Vientiane─Hanoi Expressway based on Experience of the Mekong Region Masami Ishida July 2019 This chapter should be cited as Ishida, M. (2019), ‘Economic Potential of the Vientiane─Hanoi Expressway based on Experience of the Mekong Region’, in Ambashi, M. (ed.), Vientiane─Hanoi Expressway Project. ERIA Research Project Report FY2018 no.3, Jakarta: ERIA, pp.33─51. Chapter 3 Economic Potential of the Vientiane–Hanoi Expressway Based on Experience of the Mekong Region Masami Ishida 1. Introduction Lao People’s Democratic Republic (Lao PDR) and Viet Nam have had special relations based on ties between the Lao People’s Revolutionary Party and the Communist Party of Viet Nam since the revolutionary period (Savada, 1994).1 Bilateral ideological, political, and security relations have been particularly tight. The Truong Son mountain range (or Annamite Range), however, has hampered exchange between the two capitals (Keola, 2013) and the construction of a road directly connecting them. Two of the three economic corridors in the Greater Mekong Subregion Economic Cooperation Program are National Highway (NH) No. 9 of Lao PDR and Viet Nam, a part of the East–West Economic Corridor (EWEC); and NH No. 3 of Lao PDR, which connects Chiang Rai Province of Thailand and Yunnan Province of China, and is part of the North–South Economic Corridor (NSEC). Lao PDR’s relations with Thailand are substantially closer than with Viet Nam (Kimura, 2000) and economic relations with Bangkok have become more important for Vientiane, especially since the First Mekong Friendship Bridge was built in 1994. It is not a good strategy, however, for Lao PDR to continue to strengthen economic relations only with Thailand.
