[Tajikistan is considering building a metro in the capital Dushanbe] It is reported that Tajikistan is considering various plans to build a subway in the capital. Domestic engineers are working with South Korean experts to study the features of Dushanbe's terrain and will decide whether this mode of transport is necessary for Dushanbe residents, the ministry said. At the same time, engineers are examining engineering geology to determine how to lay subway lines - tunnels, surface or elevated tracks. The Ministry of Transport and the Korea National Railway Corporation signed a memorandum of understanding on the construction of the metro in Dushanbe in March 2022. The first branch will connect the Dushanbe South Gate to the Circus area via the ground. In 2017, the Tajik government approved the "high-speed tram" project by the GIPROGOR Design Institute in Moscow. In addition, tower experts have proposed the construction of a monorail along the Dushanbe River connecting the north and south of the capital. In the next three years, the tower will be built using 317 km of international roads, 32 Bridges, 5 11.2-km long tunnels and 7 anti-avalanche corridors, and the implementation of these road projects aims to transform the tower into a transit transport country.

• [Qiongzhou Strait transportation new energy vehicle ship successfully docked]
• On the afternoon of October 8th, under the on-site escort of the Guangdong Zhanjiang Maritime Bureau's "Haixun 0927" ship, the first flatbed cargo ship dedicated to the transportation of new energy vehicles in the Qiongzhou Strait, the "Green Source No. 1" ship, slowly entered the Xuwen Hai'an New Port, marking the successful trial operation of the ship's roll on/roll off transport route in the Qiongzhou Strait. It is reported that the deck cargo ship "Green Source No.1" has a total tonnage of 6731, a net tonnage of 3769, a length of 125.8 meters, and a width of 28 meters. The ship adopts a single-layer deck design, which can carry more than 160 new energy vehicles on a single voyage under full load conditions. The parking capacity is about 60% higher than that of existing passenger and roll on/roll off transport ships. The ship is planned to be deployed on the route from Hai'an New Port in Zhanjiang to Xiuying Port in Haikou. After being put into operation, it will add a new mode of sea transportation for new energy vehicles in the Qiongzhou Strait and effectively alleviate the tense situation of insufficient capacity for new energy vehicle transportation during the peak period of cross sea vehicle transportation in the Qiongzhou Strait.

• [Malaysia's energy transition has made progress]
• On October 9, 2024, Malaysian Deputy Prime Minister Fadhila stated that Malaysia has made progress in improving energy efficiency and that "energy conservation" has become the key to energy transition. Meanwhile, Malaysia will promote the ASEAN power grid as a key topic of discussion at the ASEAN Energy Ministers' Meeting. At the 2024 Asia Power and Energy Exhibition, which opened on the 8th, Fadhila revealed that as of June, Malaysia has saved 8769 gigawatt hours of electricity, worth over 2.2 billion ringgit, and plans to reduce 38 million tons of carbon dioxide emissions by 2025. In addition, the Malaysian government has approved the establishment of an energy exchange aimed at selling green electricity to neighboring countries. As the rotating chair of ASEAN in 2025, Malaysia will promote the construction of the ASEAN power grid to promote the promotion of renewable energy and enhance the resilience and reliability of electricity supply in ASEAN member countries.
