Historically, the Golden Triangle on the Mekong River has been a strategic yet largely impoverished crossroads between China, Laos, Thailand and Burma. This book considers the new transnational "economic corridors" connecting northern Thailand and south-western China via key border towns in Myanmar and Laos. Improved highways and ports have transformed towns and districts, bringing an influx of Chinese investment, tourism, and population movements.
