For the Quy Nhon - Pleiku expressway investment project, the Provincial People's Committee assigned the Department of Construction to preside over and coordinate with relevant ministries, branches and Binh Dinh province to deploy preparations to ensure compliance with regulations, and submit them to competent authorities for consideration in May 2025.
Regarding the investment in the construction of Pleiku Airport, the Provincial People's Committee assigned the Department of Construction to advise on implementation according to the plan in the first quarter of 2025, ensuring the ability to exploit unusual international flights.
