Vietnam to Upgrade Infrastructure Along Border with Cambodia’s Ratanakiri Province

The Vietnamese government has unveiled plans to undertake a major infrastructure upgrade along the border between its Gia Lai province and Cambodia’s Ratanakiri province to boost trade activities between the two nations.

This plan is under a programme to develop Vietnam’s border trade infrastructure to 2025, with a vision to 2030, reported VNA yesterday.

The People’s Committee of the Central Highlands province of Gia Lai recently issued a plan on the implementation of the programme, which has been approved by the prime minister.

Under the plan, Gia Lai will coordinate with the Ministry of Industry and Trade to build a list of border trade infrastructure facilities.

The province will also review and adjust planning, invest in upgrading and building infrastructure and social works in the Le Thanh International Border Gate Economic Zone.

Projects to upgrade border markets to facilitate the exchange of goods through the Le Thanh International Border Gate are also promoted.
