The Japanese Airport Consultants (JAC) has been urged to update and complete studies on the Long Thanh International Airport project in southern Dong Nai province for the National Assembly’s approval.
The request was made by Vice Chairman of the Dong Nai provincial People’s Committee Tran Van Vinh during a working session with the JAC in Dong Nai on May 14.
JAC representatives said that the Japanese Government takes interest in the project because it is relating to the use of Japan’s official development assistant (ODA), adding that Japanese relevant agencies discussed the provision of investment capital to the project in April.
Japanese consultants also focused on auxiliary facilities such as transport system, waste liquid treatment, water supply and drainage, electricity, telecoms and other services, they said.
Vinh, meanwhile, said the Long Thanh airport project was added in the province’s master plan. Dong Nai will undertake site clearance, compensation and resettlement for residents in the project area. Total cost for the work is estimated at 20 trillion VND (940 million USD).
Dong Nai has made plans for two resettlement areas which covers 280 hectares each. The province also mapped out a project area of 21,000 hectares surrounding the airport, while the Transport Ministry has been carrying out the construction of transport system connecting the airport to road, railway and waterway.-VNA
