    Vessels enter a ship lock of the Pinglu Canal in Lingshan county, Qinzhou, South China's Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region on August 12, 2026.
Equipped with China's homegrown BeiDou positioning systems, drones and sensors, four vessels began trial runs along China's Pinglu Canal on Wednesday. The canal, which is planned for opening in September, will greatly inject economic vitality to areas along its route and turbocharge China's trade connection with the ASEAN with its cost-saving transportation, a Chinese analyst said.
The vessels conducting trials on Wednesday represent the main types expected to sail on this canal, namely loaded and unloaded 5,000-tonne ships as well as loaded 3,000-tonne and 1,000-tonne vessels, Xinhua News Agency reported.
The trials began when an unloaded 5,000-ton vessel departed from the Xinfu service area along the canal in South China's Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, the Xinhua News Agency reported.
With sensors collect data on their routes, movements, water currents and safe distances between ships, the tests will assess navigation under both normal and adverse conditions and examine whether the canal's waterways, locks, anchorages, service areas and navigation facilities are ready for operation.
Chinese analysts said the tests starting on Wednesday, days after the canal completed its first full-route patrol, indicated that the canal is one step closer to its scheduled opening in September as final preparation work ramp up.
Zheng Ping, chief analyst at industry news portal chineseport.cn, told the Global Times on Wednesday that as a major project in the nation's water network, the opening of the canal later this year will bring sea changes to areas along its route with fresh economic opportunities with its role as a low-cost enabler for domestic and international trade.
"Inland water traffic has great advantage in transportation capacity and costs. While a train can typically carry 20 40-foot container or more, a waterborne vessel can easily carry over 100 such containers. So a five-times capacity is gained here, greatly reducing transportation costs for goods," Zheng said.
For goods that are not time sensitive, or for bulk cargo such as coal, aluminum or fertilizers, waterborne traffic has unparallel advantage, the expert noted.
The 134.2-kilometer-long Pinglu Canal is a key project of the New International Land-Sea Trade Corridor. With total investment exceeding 70 billion yuan ($10.37 billion), the canal begins at the Pingtang River estuary in Hengzhou, administered by Nanning, follows the Qinjiang River into the Beibu Gulf, according to Xinhua News Agency.
It is China's first major river-to-sea canal project planned and coordinated at the national level since 1949 and is designed to accommodate vessels of up to 5,000 tons.
In addition to facilitating transportation, modern canal system will also have the function of water resource diversion, flood control and irrigation, greatly boosting up local economic development, Zheng said.
Lei Xiaohua, deputy director of the Institute of Southeast Asian Studies at the Guangxi Academy of Social Sciences in South China's Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, told the Global Times on Wednesday that the Pinglu Canal will serve as a new engine for the deep integration of industrial chains between China and ASEAN.
"Raw materials from ASEAN can enter China's hinterland via the Beibu Gulf ports at lower costs, while Chinese exports including aluminum products and building materials can reach Southeast Asia more efficiently," Lei said.
Against the backdrop of deep industrial chain integration between China and Vietnam, the canal, which offers a low-cost, high-capacity transport route, is poised to foster new models of cross-border industrial capacity cooperation, said Lei.
When operational in September, the canal will give inland regions in Southwest China a more direct river route to the sea. Cargo that previously had to travel eastward through the Port of Guangzhou will be able to head south directly toward ports in the Beibu Gulf, shortening some inland waterway journeys by about 560 kilometers, according to Xinhua.
The New International Land-Sea Trade Corridor is an international trade and logistics network connecting China's western regions to ASEAN countries and other overseas markets.
The corridor has continued to record strong trade growth. During the first half of 2026, imports and exports transported through the corridor by its participating regions reached 517.23 billion yuan, up 13 percent year-on-year and setting a new record for the same period, per data released by Chongqing municipal government.
The corridor's rail service handled a record 1.425 million 20-foot equivalent units of cargo in 2025, up 47.6 percent year-on-year. As of early June of 2026, its network reached 593 ports in 128 countries and regions.
。    Ram Charan is currently occupied with his upcoming film Peddi, a film that has generated significant buzz among fans and the trade. Even while he continues working on the film, exciting developments about his next collaboration have emerged.          Charan loved the script     After Peddi, Charan is set to reunite with director Sukumar (who is widely known for the blockbuster Pushpa franchise) after their earlier outing, Rangasthalam. The new film will also be produced by the same production house that backed Pushpa, making the combination even more special. According to the sources, Ram Charan recently flew to Dubai to listen to the final narration of the script from Sukumar and his team. The meeting reportedly went on for several hours, with Sukumar detailing the story, characters arc, and emotional journey he has designed for the actor. Charan was reportedly fascinated with the narration and gave his approval. The unique tone of the story, and the act that he will be shown in a new light were the clincher for the actor. The project promises both strong content and wide-appealing entertainment.          Film to kick off in summer 2026     The film is being planned on a grand scale, and Sukumar is known for spending extensive time on writing and pre-production. The shoot is expected to begin in the summer of 2026, giving the director considerable time to complete his ongoing commitments. Fans of both Ram Charan and Sukumar are thrilled about their reunion, as their previous collaboration, Rangasthalam, became one of the biggest hits in Telugu cinema. With the same production house involved, expectations are naturally sky-high. More updates on casting, genre, and technical crew are likely to be revealed once Sukumar navigates through the writing process. Meanwhile, Charan’s film is slated for release on March 27, 2026 to coincide with his birthday.Also Read:Ram Charan, Sukumar’s Film to Have an Urban Backdrop。
