mumbojumbo Posted June 10, 2007 Share Posted June 10, 2007 no where is it stated that this ,will not be a deep water port , think ferries and coastal freighters .................. not cruise linners and container ships . Marina? Yacht basin? Deep water ports are usually on the ocean-not a river. Cruise liners and container ships cannot get up the mae khong river to Chiang Saen, because of rapids somewhere-? The last dock they built there sank-?? The only traffic to CS is small frieghters from China bringing apples and other fruit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
