N.A. Chairman Vuong Dinh Hue addresses the working session.

Inspecting the progress of the airport project on October 2, the top legislator lauded the province’s performance in building the Long An - Binh Son resettlement areas, requesting the locality to ensure that the living conditions in the area is equal to or higher than that in the old one.

He underlined that the Long Thanh project has seen a slow progress as it has so far spanned through three N.A. tenures. However, the N.A. Chairman noted that recently, under the direction of the Government and the direct management of Deputy Prime Minister Le Van Thanh, the project has been sped up.

As scheduled, in the first phase, one runway and one passenger terminal of Long Thanh International Airport will be put into operation by 2025, enabling the airport to welcome 25 million passengers and handle 1.2 million tonnes of cargo per year. This means there are only three years left to complete the plan, he noted, stressing the need to take drastic actions to ensure the progress of the project.

He asked Dong Nai to report all difficulties and obstacles facing the implementation of the project to the N.A. Standing Committee to seek timely solutions.

The top legislator assigned the N.A. General Secretary and Chairman of the N.A. Office to organize a working session to find solutions to the difficulties, highlighting that the N.A. always accompany the Government and localities during this important project.

He requested the ACV to select contractors with full financial capacity and experience to construct the project, ensuring openness and transparency during the process.
