The Transport Ministry will ask the Cabinet to note that a committee will be set up to draft a southern development master plan, with results expected within one year. The land bridge study had earlier concluded it was not worth pursuing, and the ministry says the land bridge's future will depend on this new committee's work. The appointment order may reach the PM next week. For a southern business, nothing changes on the ground yet; treat land bridge-linked logistics, property or investment plans as uncertain until the committee reports, and watch for consultation invitations from local chambers of commerce and industry councils.
