VNA 20/07/2009 - Vietnam has provided over 29.5 billion VND for Laos between 2008 and 2010 to build a cross-border check-point at the Phu Cua International Border Gate in Attapeu province, according to the Central Highlands province of Kon Tum ’s Department of Planning and Investment.
Covering a site of 27,000 sq.m, the check-point will include a two-storey office block which will accommodate an inspections room, a guard post, a rest room for staff, the electricity and water systems, a parking area and a garden.
Once operational in 2010, the check point, together with the Bo Y-Phu Cua International Border Gate, will facilitate trading and tourism between Kon Tum province and localities in Laos , which will strengthen diplomatic ties amongst nations along the East-West Economic Corridor.
Besides helping Attapeu province to build the check-point, Kon Tum province has also helped to conduct surveys and comprehensive socio-economic development plans for the Dak Bar border gate in Sekong province’s Dak Chung district./.
