The Government has directed the establishment of a working group led by Deputy Prime Minister Tran Hong Ha to oversee and speed up the project, Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh revealed.
At the construction site, he asked ministries, agencies, localities and investor to hasten the implementation of the project, with quality guaranteed.
Covering a total area of more than 5,580 hectares, the Long Thanh international airport will spread across six communes in Long Thanh district, Dong Nai province. The airport's total investment is VND 336.63 trillion (USD 14.6 billion), with construction divided into three phases.
In the first phase, a runway and one passenger terminal along with other supporting facilities will be built at a cost of VND 109.112 trillion to serve 25 million passengers and 1.2 million tons of cargo each year.
The project started in 2021. Once fully completed by 2050, the airport will be able to handle 100 million passengers and 5 million tons of cargo annually.
Located 40km East of Ho Chi Minh City, the airport is expected to relieve overloading at Tan Son Nhat international airport in the Southern metropolis, now the country's largest airport.
