HANOI—Vietnam has effectively dropped plans to adopt Japan"s Shinkansen bullet-train technology, opting for a slower speed rail link between its two main cities.
Vietnam plans to lower the speed from more than 300 kph to 160-200 kph—at least in the initial stage—to reduce the estimated 5 trillion yen ($50 billion) plus project cost by 20 percent, government and other sources said.
Japan is now expected to face stiff competition from South Korea and China, which may compete for the project with a lower-speed technology.
