Yi Bofeng hails from Mengla County in Yunnan Province. After graduating as a Lao major from a technical college in the provincial capital Kunming in 2020, she was recruited as a train attendant under China Railway Kunming Bureau Group Co., Ltd.

The China-Laos Railway, a landmark project of high-quality Belt and Road cooperation, began operations in December 2021. Yi was aboard the first train of the railway, witnessing the historical moment of railway operations.

The 1,035-km railway connects China's Kunming with Vientiane in Laos. The railway has transported more than 16.4 million passengers and over 21 million tons of cargo as of June 3 this year.

The railway started cross-border passenger services on April 13 this year. One passenger train operates daily from Kunming to Vientiane and another one the other way around. Since then, Yi has been in service for over 20 round trips.

Along the railway line are regions with abundant tourism resources, rich species resources, and great concentration of natural and cultural heritages. Villages under Mengla County where Yi's family reside boast fruits and rubber trees planting. Owing to close proximity to the railway, the products from these villages can be soon delivered to the market so that villagers can enjoy the dividend brought by the railway. (Xinhua/Lyu Shuai)
