| Vinci has won the concession for airport in Cambodia The Royal Government of Cambodia has decided to award the build and operate contract for the Sihanoukville international airport to the Société Concessionnaire des Aéroports, a Vinci subsidiary, in the framework of a 35-year concession. Total investment in this platform could come to 200 million dollars over the term of the concession. Development of an international airport in Sihanoukville is a crucial challenge for the Cambodian economy. It should facilitate exploitation of the energy resources of the Gulf of Siam, contribute to the expansion of logistical and port activities in this coastal city and also to development of tourism in a still largely untouched coastal region. The airport will make it possible to create leisure facilities complementing the exceptional sites of the ancient Khmer civilization (the Angkor temples), thereby enriching the Kingdom's overall tourist offering. write your comments about the article :: © 2006 Construction News :: home page |
