Similar to the Eastern Seaboard Project initiated with comprehensive approach to regional development, which included a world class port, petrochemical industries, a cluster of heavy industries facilitated by a dry port connected by super highway and cargo-oriented railway, Thailand now is proceeding with a similar project, which is called the Thailand landbridge project and would be located in the southern of Thailand. It is a logistics park concept to interface transport hubs intertwined with landbridge and heavy industries; light industries and services; and special and free economic zone. Several studies have already been done and analyzed its feasibility in terms flow, finance and environment. The project is a mega project and carries pros and cons in terms of the project, local community, and national development perspective. In these contexts, this paper has synthesized the critical components of the project, analyzed them, and brought forward their binding elements.
