Regional economic cooperation is conducive to the economic complementarity and common development among the countries. In the process of regional economic integration, the build of transnational infrastructures plays a very important role. The reinforcement of regionally interconnected infrastructures can drive the social and economic development of relevant countries, and deepen regional economic complementary integration. With China’s foreign investment ever increasing, interconnected infrastructures with neighboring countries will be one of the important contents of China’s overseas investment.

Many countries have taken steps to open their infrastructure construction market to the outside world during the recent years, aiming to attract foreign investment. International financing plays more important role and the trend of investment diversification in infrastructure construction becomes more and more obvious. With China’s overseas investment keeping sustained growth, investment in infrastructure projects with potential and sustainable return will be one of the strategies. Managing investment risk, establishing symbiotic relationship and realizing win-win development have become a common issue that both Chinese contractors and host countries have to face.
