webfact Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 Betong Airport expected to be completed next year By Thai PBS When it is completed next year, Betong international airport in Yala will be the catalyst for change which will turn this southernmost district in the restive Deep South to become a tourism and logistic hub for the border region. With the airport, travelling between Betong and other destinations as well transportation of goods to and out of the district which are hampered by the southern unrest will be more convenient and safer, according to Yala Chamber of Commerce. The airport which was originally designed to have a runway of 1,800 metres long will be extended by another 300-400 metres so it will be able to accommodate larger planes. Construction is now undertaken by Naowarat Pattanakarn Company on 920 rai land plot in Tambon Yarom. A budget of 1,900 million baht has been allocated for the project.

Familyaffairs Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 Amazing....an airport can be conceived and built before our very simple, basic Chalong Phuket tunnel can be built. This is year two, and it won't be finished for another year..,...Traffic chaos daily... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
