facilities kicked off on July 11 in the Mekong Delta city of Can Tho.
Covering 37 ha, the project includes three wharves, which are capable of receiving 20,000-tonne ships. Its logistics infrastructures are designed to accommodate a 3.5-ha container warehouse and a 3.6 ha freight depot.
Once completed in 2012, Cai Cui will become the largest-ever seaport in the Mekong Delta region.

The Mekong Delta provinces would cut down hundreds of million of USD for freight transport and ease pressure on the Saigon port which are currently overloaded./.
