TNT, one of the world’s largest express services providers, today announced the expansion of Asia’s pioneering integrated road network into Vietnam following a further EUR 6 million investment.

Adding to an original investment of EUR 2 million, the enhancement brings the total investment to date to EUR 8 million.

TNT plans to extend the Asia Road Network to reach China through the north-eastern border of Vietnam by the end of 2007. Once completed, the network in Southeast Asia will cover almost 60 per cent of the region and link over 120 cities across 4,000 km.

First introduced at the end of 2005, the first phase of TNT’s Asia Road Network linked Malaysia, Singapore and Thailand.
