Notes:

Explanation –

  • India-Myanmar-Thailand Trilateral Highway: This project is associated with India’s Act East Policy. It aims to enhance connectivity between India and Southeast Asia, promoting trade and cultural exchange as part of the broader diplomatic initiative.
  • Kaladan Multi-Modal Transit Transport Project: This project is also part of the Act East Policy. It seeks to improve connectivity between India’s northeastern states and Myanmar, facilitating trade and access to Southeast Asian markets.
  • Bangladesh-China-India-Myanmar (BCIM) Economic Corridor: While this corridor involves India and aims to enhance regional connectivity, it is not specifically part of India’s Act East Policy. The BCIM Economic Corridor is a separate initiative involving China and focuses on broader regional integration.
  • Trans-Siberian Railway: This railway is not associated with India’s Act East Policy. It primarily connects Russia’s European part with the Russian Far East and does not involve India or its strategic initiatives in Southeast Asia.
