A location that was once used as a place to serve site clearance is now deserted. Around the area, the entrance is wide open, with dry leaves falling all over the yard.

Not only the small, dilapidated house but also the solid brick houses were left behind after the airport project was built.

The schools are also subject to site clearance, so there are no more students coming to school.

Ahead is a part of the Sa Pa airport bypass road that was eroded after floods, but people still have to travel through it every day because it has not been repaired.

But since the groundbreaking ceremony in 2022, until the beginning of 2025, this nearly 7,000 billion VND airport super project has remained motionless. The reason is that investors have not been found because businesses see a large investment and it is difficult to make a profit, so they do not do it.

The leader of Lao Cai Department of Transport informed: "It is impossible to start construction in 2024 and complete it in the middle of next year. We are striving to attract investors so that we can start the project in early 2025". Photo: Dinh Dai
