The government has ordered relevant units to work on clearing 12 revetments built during the Vietnam War from HCMC’s Tan Son Nhat airport.

 

The ministries of transport and national defense have been tasked with collecting opinions from related units on the clearance to create more space for the airport to serve large aircraft.

 

Each of the revetments, built by the U.S. to use during the Vietnam War (1955-1975), is 20m long, 10m wide and 3m high. They are currently managed by the Vietnam People’s Air Force.
