    According to Thai media sources, the Mohan port has suspended the import of Thai durians from April 25 to 29 due to the positive detection of the new crown virus in a 500-ton durian container shipped to China via the China-
    Laos Railway .

     
    This batch of durians is the first international durian train on the China-Laos railway in Thailand, with a total of 27 containers of 500 tons of durians
    .
    Since the Mohan port was found to be positive for the new crown virus in 8 containers, the durian cargo was subsequently fused
    .
    Earlier this month, a 3-day circuit breaker was implemented on Thai durians from April 12 to April 14 due to the positive detection of the new coronavirus in Thai durian vehicles at Mohan Port
    .
     
    Mohan Port just resumed importing durians 10 days ago, and then the circuit breaker occurred again, which caused the Thai fruit industry to worry about the price of durians
    .
    If the Mohan port suspends durian customs clearance, it means that 80-100 durian containers cannot be exported to China every day, and the price of durian in Thailand may plummet
    .
     
    According to Sanchai Kosalwattana, president of the Thai Durian Producers Association, the eastern region of Thailand is expected to produce 732,330 tonnes of durians this year, and only 20 percent of it has been exported
    .
    Exports of durians in May will account for about 50% of the total and will reach 370,715 tonnes
    .
    If the Thai durian container is tested positive for the new crown virus again, it may face the consequences of suspending the import for one month or stopping the import
    .
     
      Affected by this news, the 400 tons of durian originally planned to be shipped to China via the China-Laos Railway on April 26 has been adjusted and exported to China by water
    .
     
      It has been 4 months since the China-Laos Railway opened and this is the first time that Thai durians have been exported to China through the China-Laos Railway
    .
    After the durians in Chanthaburi Province of Thailand were loaded, they took the train from Laem Chabang to Nong Khai Province on the Northeast Line, and then transferred to Laos by car, and loaded and unloaded on the freight train of the China-Laos Railway at the Southern Freight Transfer Station in Vientiane.
    Before customs clearance at Mohan Port, it is necessary to transfer by car at the South Tower Transit Station
    .
    The mode of transportation by car + railway is more efficient and less expensive
    .
    However, due to the relatively backward domestic railway network in Thailand, automobile transportation is still the main mode of transportation
    .
