Many localities seeking investors in airports
Deputy Prime Minister Le Van Thanh chaired a meeting on September 12 with 15 cities and provinces that need to upgrade, expand, or build airports and are seeking investment in the form of public-private partnerships (PPPs). Investment in airport construction, he said, would promote socio-economic development in the locality and also the country. He asked that investors be quickly selected for the construction of Sa Pa Airport in northern Lao Cai province, others in central Quang Tri and northern Lai Chau provinces, and Phan Thiet Airport in south-central Binh Thuan province in late 2022 and early 2023.
