The Chinese government said on Monday it hopes the Mexican government could properly deal with the problems caused by the suspension of it high-speed rail project.
The comment came after the Mexican government announced to indefinitely suspend the high-speed rail project linking Mexico City with the industrial hub Queretaro.
"We feel really sorry about the decision. Chinese companies have spent enormous efforts in bidding for the projects," the NDRC said in a statement.
The Chinese side hopes the Mexican government could effectively protect the legitimate rights of the Chinese companies and adopt active measures to promote pragmatic cooperation between the two countries, said the statement.
China Railway Construction Corp and several Mexican construction firms, whose original winning bid said they would bid again for the $3.75 billion project, after the Ministry of Communications and Transport of Mexico said it would relaunch bidding for its first high-speed railway in mid January.
