19、stic, with the development of Chinas high-speed railway system. And thats not all. China has an even greater high-speed railway plan to connect the country with Southeast Asia, and eventually Eastern Europe. China is negotiating to extend its own high-speed railway network to up to 17 countries in 1
20、0 to 15 years, eventually reaching London and Singapore. China has proposed three such projects. The first would possibly connect Kunming with Singapore via Vietnam and Malaysia. Another could start in Urumqi and go through Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan, and possibly to Germany. The third would start in
21、 the northeast and go north through Russia and then into Western Europe. The new system would still follow Chinas high-speed railway standard.

We foresee that in the coming decades, millions of people will migrate to the western regions, where the land is empty and reso
25、urces unused. With high-speed trains, people will set up factories and business centers in the west once and for all. And theyll trade with Central Asian and Eastern European countries. 8.
