Routeing via Lad Krabang (Thailand) (Route 4)
Route 4 (see Table V). This route is via Lad Krabang which is an Inland
Clearance Depot (ICD) located in the outskirts of Bangkok with a direct rail link
to Laem Chabang. An ICD is sometime referred to as a ``dry port’’. According to
Beresford and Dubey (1990) ``dry ports’’ are specific sites to which imports and
exports can be consigned for inspection by Customs and which can be specified
as the origin or destination of goods in transit with documentations such as a
multimodal transport bill of lading (B/L).
