获亚洲开发银行资助‧重建上丁省机场
获亚洲开发银行资助‧重建上丁省机场
在亚洲开发银行（ADB）的资助下，柬埔寨將重建上丁省机场。
据柬埔寨民航国务秘书处发言人辛章西里瓦表示，上丁省机场被纳入湄公河次区域的发展计划，目前亚行正在对此进行深入研究。
他说，上丁省机场被视为湄公河次区域发展中最具潜力，以链接老挝和其他区域国家。
他估计，重建上丁省机场基础需要500至600万美元，可允许小型客机起降；若机场要提昇为接受160至180名乘客客机起降，需要2000至3000万美元进行重建。
柬埔寨旅游联盟主席杜西那表示，如果上丁省机场重新开放，將促进该省至老挝和其他地区国家的往来。
他说，上丁省拥有丰富的自然旅游资源，但基础设施落后，阻碍当地旅游业发展。

New Laos-Cambodia border crossing opens
New Laos-Cambodia border crossing opens

A new crossing on the Cambodia-Laos border, the Trapeang Kreal international border gate, opened officially on Tuesday.
Prime Minister Hun Sen and Laso Premier Thongloun Sisoulith were to preside over the ceremony, Cambodia’s Foreign Ministry said.
The crossing connects Cambodia’s Stung Treng province with Laos’ Champasak province, according to a report by the Khmer Times.
Thonglien Sibounthien, managing director of Viengchampa Tour in the Laos city of Luang Phrabang, said on Monday the opening of the border gate will not only facilitate tourism but also boost trade between the countries.
“Opening the border is really good and that is very important for both of us. It means better income,” he said.
However, the poor state of the roads was still a concern and visas were expensive, aspects which each country has to improve.
The opening of the gate follows the state visit by the new Laos prime minister to Cambodia in June.
At the time Mr Sibounthien urged Cambodia to increase trade and investment in its northern neighbour because commerce between the two countries was small and there was ample room for expansion.
The president and group CEO of Acleda Bank, In Channy, also welcomed the opening of the gate. The Cambodian bank has invested in Laos since 2008,
He said it would play a big role in promoting investment, trade and investment with Laos.
Visitors from Laos to Cambodia fell in the first 11 months of last year.
Numbers dropped more than 10% to 314,415 from 349,759 in the same period a year earlier, but Laos was still number five on the list of international visitors to Cambodia, the Tourism Ministry said.
