The first-phase construction of the Phu Quoc International Airport in
the southern province of Kien Giang is expected to be completed by mid-December
this year, the provincial People’s Committee has announced.
The construction of the airport
began in November, 2008, on a site of over 900 hectares in Duong To commune in
Phuc Quoc district. It will cost a total of VND16.2 trillion (US$775 million)
with half of which, between now and 2020, coming from the Southern Airports
Corporation.
With a 3,000 meter runway, the
airport, once completed, will provide services to Boeing 777 and Boeing 747-400
super jets, as well as similar aircraft.
It helps Phu Quoc make full use
of its strong points and economic potential, especially in maritime and island
tourism and trade and turn into a top eco-tourism area in the country and the
region.
