At the Loc An - Binh Son resettlement area, Mr. Man visited some households about life in their new home after giving up land to build Long Thanh airport.

Mr. Man thanked and shared the sacrifices of the people in giving up land to build an international airport.

People also said that after two years of moving to their new home, life has gradually stabilized.

He noted that any work that needs to be done immediately, including an airport, must have effective, synchronous connecting roads. Regularly inspect and monitor the quality of construction works in accordance with regulations, to avoid loss, waste, and negativity.

He encouraged leaders of units and localities to go to many places to grasp people's thoughts and aspirations and provide timely support.

According to Mr. Man, National Assembly delegates are very interested and look forward to the early operation of Long Thanh airport.

"Any blockages or obstacles, if subjective, need to be resolved, and if objective, recommendations must be made. The National Assembly has delegated power to the Government, so it needs to implement the resolutions. I hope the province, the investor and related units will coordinate to complete the project on schedule," he said.

Runway construction ahead of schedule

Reporting to the working delegation, Mr. Nguyen Tien Viet - Deputy General Director of Vietnam Airports Corporation (ACV) - said that the contractor mobilized 2,136 personnel and 518 pieces of equipment to deploy 50 construction teams.

All items are on schedule, except for the runway, which is 2 months ahead of schedule and is expected to be completed on April 30, 2025.

At the passenger terminal project, ACV reported that there are 3,300 workers and more than 1,100 pieces of equipment for construction. The project has now completed all reinforced concrete columns and beams on the first and second floors. In some areas, the contractor has started topping out...

Mr. Viet said that it is expected to complete the construction of the entire reinforced concrete structure by August to September 2024 to begin installing the roof steel structure. ACV has been coordinating with the contractor to inspect the factories and place orders for equipment installed in the terminal to keep up with the construction schedule in the coming time.

For the traffic project connecting T1 and T2, 45% of the package value has been completed. The roadbed embankment work is expected to be completed before December 2024, the crushed stone work will be completed in March 2025 to complete the asphalt concrete work in November 2025.

Based on the progress of the main items (passenger terminal and runway), ACV will soon deploy items such as passenger terminal parking lot, airport traffic infrastructure. At the same time, together with other investors, deploy the remaining items on the construction site.
