The investment plan approved by former Prime Minister Nguyen Tan Dung outlined that the state budget would allocate VND2.9 trillion ($130 million) to expand the airport. However, the government has only released 27 percent of the sum (VND800 billion).
To ensure construction ran according to schedule, Hai Phong allocated VND1.7 trillion (S76.5 million) from bonds and its municipal budget. The city said the Ministry of Finance should make up the sum by returning revenue that exceeded the city's import-export target.
The project to expand Cat Bi International Airport was launched in January last year and is scheduled for completion on May 12 this year with total investment of VND3.6 trillion ($164.6 billion). So far, 96 percent of the project has been completed.
