ABSTRACT
This chapter discusses the possibilities of economic development that may lead to the elimination of poverty in an inland area. The development of this area's infrastructure has recently rapidly increased, and the liberalization of trade with other countries is expanding. In this section, people discusses some basic information relating to the Golden Quadrangle (GQ). The most important characteristic of the GQ area is that the four countries all share borders with two of the other countries. Therefore, small-scale cities in each country should strengthen their economic relationships and form a new economic zone in the GQ area. In the new economic zone, the movement of people, goods, and money is liberalized like in the European Union (EU). The geographic advantage of the GQ is the close proximity of four countries in a small area with different income levels. In such a location, if an advanced free economic zone could be realized, a global supply chain could be formed in this area.
