Working together on high-speed trains may be the next step up for Sino-Thai relations as the topic takes on importance in discussions between Chinese Premier Li Keqiang and Thailand Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra.

Li and Yingluck were visiting a Chinese high-speed railway exhibition on Saturday at the Queen Sirikit National Convention Center in Bangkok during the Chinese premier's official visit to Thailand, the second leg of his first trip to Southeast Asia since taking office in March.

At the exhibition, Li told Yingluck China's high-speed train technologies are "advanced, safe, reliable and economically competitive". He said he hoped the two countries can enhance their cooperation in the railway sector.
